Are you sure you need it to be the same as nl.wikimedia? Are you aware they don't allow anonymous edits? Angela

Hi there is a big problem, the government cannot finance the schoolbooks anymore and there is in germany as well a tendency to have central tests for certificates, this means a central contrywide curriculum of excercises to do and test. We thought about business firms spending money for the books but this would be lobby, to have a biology book by a genetic firm advertising the gen tomatoes ? School is not for work only, but for building human beeings. Then We thought about wiki schoolbooks, So we need a technical platform which is differentiated for the individuel types to learn: math, language, biology, social sport etc. Then we have the central curriculum in which class or age which topic has to be done, Each hour for a learning unit / lesson could be described by wiki texts. So e.g. class 8.th first term = in biology 15 Lessons about topic xy. So we get a plan in wiki which is a category page and then 15 subpages. Many students, teachers and pupils could help to built the wiki- And then: we need a pdf generator, so that each teacher can choose a lesson unit for the next half year and print a pdf out of it. This book he can mail, but as well print on demand (or books on demand) can be printed. So the school is printing the books itself from wikipeda. I want to see a wikipedia book in the schools. maybe there could be as well a certain platform for it ? Would be nice to have this discussed - especially from the german tech admins ?

I wanted to ask for creation of pl.wikimedia.org, a Wiki which would help the Poles to organize the work of the Polish local chapter. Basicly, it would serve the same purpose as nl.wikimedia.org.
