Africa event
Dear Tochi,
Thanks for reaching out, we already know about this project from a
presentation made by Papa some couple of months back. Shupai our
administrator will let you know there are more volunteers from the Chapter
and community who would like to take part here.
@Shupai Mchuchu <shupai(a)wikimedia.org.za> kindly note these dates and send
me a reminder 2 days before it takes place. Also kindly send this to our
community and board to find out if there aren't any volunteers who would
want to take part and volunteer with their time in this project. I'll
certainly be there.
Best regards,
Bobby Shabangu

Hello Bobby, my name is [[User: Tochiprecious]].
I'm one of the
founding members of @wikimediaigbo and also a Wikipedian in Residence
at Moleskine Foundation working on the WikiAfrica Education project.
I pioneered the last AfroCuration on 4th and 5th September in
Mozambique where I worked with the WMF Language Team to get the
Makhuwa language Wikipedia into the incubator. We had over 70
participants and have created over 120 articles since then.
My next program is in S.A, with Constitution Hill and Harambee on 26th
and 27th of October and I would like to ask for your assistance as a
User Group to help train new editors to edit your language Wikipedia,
and also mentor them to become part of your user group and also
knowledge contributors in your language on Wiki.
Also, I would like to find out the languages that the S.A User Group
edits Wiki in.
I'll be looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanks a lot
Tochi
