Given the historic links between Ireland and the Caribbean, the migrations from Cromwellian times, as well as countering the more recent and dangerous Irish slavery myth that does not want to go way, we would love to support any campaign - in particular maybe focusing on getting some content in Irish on Vicipéid.

Hi Laura
There is a recently established Wikimedians of the Caribbeans User Group and we're planning to have a presence at the WikiConference North America in November!

All the best

Hi Wikipedians,

 

Has Wikipedia ever done a Wiki loves the Caribbean, El Caribe, or a similar campaign?

 

I know that the Caribbean encompasses a variety of Wikipedia geographical organizations – including the U.S.! – so I wondered how they have been represented in larger campaigns.

 

Also thinking of this as WikiConference America approaches.  Just a musing from me, loving learning about others work, too!

 

Best wishes,

Laura
