It's a couple of weeks later now. And it's still no fun to check the recent changes of 3 African wikis. Well it is a little bit, since there are actual...
Hoi, When you are a bureaucrat, you can do it on a specific project. When you are a steward you can do it on ANY project. When we as a group think it would be ...
... Makes perfect sense. I'm creating http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Steward_for_African_language_Wikipedias Please edit it some more, and please add some...
Okay, so it looks like we need to make use of existing stewards rather than being able to appoint a new one for African language wikis. I've tried to find a...
Merci Denis et Kasper. En ce qui concerne la selection des polices, je dois signaler qu'il y a un petit problème avec la police DejaVu. Le majuscule de la...
Thanks to Ibou some parts of the interface of the Wolof Wikipedia are now translated into Wolof! But, Ibou does not read English, so to continue this work it's...

Hoi, I do not know if someone asked for a grant to go there... I have not heard about it.. I mentioned the possibility in the past. I will be there. Thanks, ...
... I did apply, but I was not very inspired because my original idea (something with CouchSurfing) was annulled - see http://opencouchsurfing.org why. Also,...
I will also be there, but I'm not African, though (as you can probably tell by my name). But I look forward to seeing you there, Ndesanjo! ... -- Jon Harald...
Jon, Ndesanjo, Gerard, Hope all is well at Wikimania in Taipei. Will there be (has there been) any kind of get-together of people interested in African ...
Hoi absolutely, some interesting ideas where toyed around .. and Anthere, the chair of the board of the WMF said in her opening speech that Africa was...
Thanks Gerard. Glad to hear that there is productive discussion about Africa & Wikipedia. WRT the museum issue, a related idea is "digital repatriation" of ...
