Hi Raphael, Fantastic news. Good job on what you have done so far.
Can you identify which language wikis can be of greatest support to you? I know that English will be among them. We probably get a landing page set up for your GLAM. English Wikisource has few African WSers, and I cannot remember any from Ghana, so there will be plenty of spaces to fill!!! I would be recommending that you be identifying key historical documents and works that your community wants for it's needs and those that it would like to highlight to the world. Having something that is scanned and can be uploaded to Commons, have the metadata at Wikidata, a transcription at Wikisource and be referenced and featured at Wikipedia, and could be the basis for learning at Wikiversity, could show the diversity of Wikimedia's sites and various opportunities. If that is possible, then some short documents could even be processed completely at the event. I will do some more reading and thinking, and put my mind to how enWS could have information/support available. (We haven't excelled in that space, we have usually preferred the doing.) Some housekeeping. * Ensure that one or two key people have advanced rights, equivalent or greater than account creator. Ask at [[m:SRP]] for account creator rights if no advanced rights are held. Ping me if necessary. * If it is going to be a big crowd, then we should be seeking the IP range of the venue and getting WMF to white list that range for that time. Phab ticket.
