 Guys, I’m glad for the wikimedians of Botswana and we’re now cheering
 for them in a pub in Samarkand, but I’ve checked their page and found two
 resolutions on recognition — one dated by 2017 and another is this one. Can
 anyone explain what have happened?

 Hi everyone!

 I'm very happy to announce that the Affiliations Committee has
 recognized [1] Wikimedia Community User Group Botswana [2] as a Wikimedia
 User Group. The group aims to to promote the use of Wikimedia and its
 sister projects by the residents of Botswana, and to also help in creating
 awareness on how the everyday Botswana can contribute to the pool of free
 knowledge, which is Wikimedia; most especially in the translation efforts
 into the major local languages (Setswana).

 Please join me in congratulating the members of this new user group!

Dear Friends,

A few weeks ago, Wiki in Africa published a call for volunteer Ambassadors
for Wiki Loves Africa
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_In_Africa/Wiki_Loves_Africa/Ambassadors#The_role_-_WLA_Ambassadors>
with the overall objective of helping on the Wiki Loves Africa initiative.

I am very happy to announce our new WLA Ambassadors in three language
categories;

*French :*


   - Minette Lontsie <https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisatrice:Serieminou>
   - Mermoze Adodo <https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:Adoscam>

* English :*


   - Ogali Hilary <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ogalihillary>
   - Alvin Ategyeka <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Alvinategyeka>

*Arabic :*


   - Donia Domiaty
   
<https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85%D8%A9:%D8%AF%D9%86%D9%8A%D8%A7>

Please give them a warm welcome 珞


I would like to also extend my thanks to all the people we received
applications from. This has been a tough call hence why we had to increase
the final selections by 1 person per category as we observed that all the
applicants had some unique combination of experience and skill to offer. We
really appreciate the interest from so many of you who applied.


Best,

Dear Wikimedians,

The search for a theme for the *2024 Wiki Loves Africa* contest is still
ongoing.

next Wiki Loves Africa theme should be:

WLA 2024 Theme Suggestions


Kindly recall that Wiki Loves Africa
 (
www.wikilovesafrica.net) is an annual photography competition that takes
place across Africa. It was designed to take back the visual narrative by
re-imaging contemporary society and cultural heritage across Africa through
the eyes of Africa’s photographers.

Wiki Loves Africa images have collectively - since metrics began in 2016 -
been viewed 1 billion times.

Started in 2014, the 9 editions so far have resulted in the contribution of
102,068 images to Wikipedia's media library, Wikimedia Commons, by over
10,380 photographers from 55 countries across the continent. The images
have a life beyond the competition, with these images being placed in
articles on Wikipedia, and thus being viewed by over 1 billion times since
the impact began being monitored from 2016; with 25 million views in May
2022 alone.

Kindly recall that Wiki Loves Africa
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Africa> (
www.wikilovesafrica.net) is an annual photography competition that takes
place across Africa. It was designed to take back the visual narrative by
re-imaging contemporary society and cultural heritage across Africa through
the eyes of Africa’s photographers.

Wiki Loves Africa images have collectively - since metrics began in 2016 -
been viewed 1 billion times.

Started in 2014, the 9 editions so far have resulted in the contribution of
102,068 images to Wikipedia's media library, Wikimedia Commons, by over
10,380 photographers from 55 countries across the continent. The images
have a life beyond the competition, with these images being placed in
articles on Wikipedia, and thus being viewed by over 1 billion times since
the impact began being monitored from 2016; with 25 million views in May
2022 alone.

Les images de Wiki Loves Africa ont collectivement - depuis le début des

Démarrés en 2014, les 9 éditions à ce jour ont abouti à la contribution de
102 068 images à la médiathèque de Wikipédia, Wikimedia Commons, par plus

une vie au-delà du concours, puisqu'elles sont placées dans des articles de

l'impact a commencé à être surveillé à partir de 2016 ; avec 25 millions de
vues pour le seul mois de mai 2022.

[African Wikimedians] [ISA TOOL] POSTPONEMENT OF PRE-SCHEDULED DEMO EVENT

2023-05-18 Thread Wilson Oluoha
Dear Wikimedians,

I am writing to announce that the ISA tool demo meeting
previously scheduled for *today 18th May 2023* has had to be postponed due
to technical difficulties with the tool on toolforge.

We are hoping it gets fixed asap to enable us to fix a new date for the
demo. All inconveniences are deeply regretted. A new date will be announced
as soon as possible.

Warm regards

Wilson

There will be a workshop where you will be trained on what to do and how to
use the tools.

There is not much stress as we will be working as a team and it will also
be an opportunity to learn and network.

If you are interested please fill out this short form: *http://bit.ly/42Dki6C

Thank you.

Wilson

[African Wikimedians] Re: WikiIndaba 2023 Preparations - Community Engagement Survey

2023-04-04 Thread Wilson Oluoha
Hello Bobby,

Perhaps have Wikimedia Morocco organize a very short online session to
guide volunteers (mostly newer folks) on how to fill the form.
I have had several community members ask me questions about what the
expected responses are and its general importance.

Kudos for all the work you're doing, Chief Priest.

Best

Wilson
