Congratulations to the new user group! It's great to have a clear destination to refer people to, on matters of vision-impaired use of and contribution to the Wikimedia projects.
(I think it would be helpful, for this and other recent groups, to ensure that the designated contacts for the group are clearly identified on the group's Meta page. People shouldn't have to guess how to make contact with the group, and shouldn't just assume the first few names in the members list are the designated contacts.) Cheers, A. Asaf Bartov (he/him/his) Senior Program Officer, Emerging Wikimedia Communities Wikimedia Foundation <https://wikimediafoundation.org/> Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. Help us make it a reality! https://donate.wikimedia.org On Tue, May 12, 2020 at 9:51 PM Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight < rosiestep.w...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi everyone! > > > > I'm very happy to announce that the Affiliations Committee has recognized > [1] WikiBlind User Group [2] as a Wikimedia User Group.
