Hello all,

The above date has been cancelled, YET AGAIN.

On that note, the event isn't happening as far as I know. If anything should be changed, Stephen will be more than happy to communicate here.

Sorry for the false hopes. I thought this could happen, but it appears the date might never get concrete and it'll keep being postponed.

Remember discussion below from last year?

The NSBE community at Legon has finalized the meetup schedule.

Date: 26th March, 2016.
Venue: Seminar Hall, School of Engineering, Legon
Time: 8:30 am to 10:30 am*

Want to do a presentation about Wikimedia the program? We can look at preparing a program immediately.

Can we make Wikiversity the primary subject for discussion this time around, instead of Wikipedia? Or maybe WikiData? Even better, promoting the local languages? Wikimedia Commons?

I think the Wikimedia world is big and shouldn't be focused on Wikipedia only. The attendees are likely students of Legon. Wikiversity might interest them. WikiData, yes! Commons for sharing photo is a great option! 

Writing articles on Wikipedia? Duh!

Let's kick into discussion and see which will work best.

thanks

Yep. Exams (or a form of test) supposed to happen next week Saturday ooh, but lecturer say noooo, must happen this weekend by force.

Both level 200 and 300 students.

On the bright site, more time to plan.

Would have been a great event. Unfortunately, due an impromptu exams rescheduled to be on this Saturday, the event won't be possible.

The NSBE team at Legon are looking at next year January-february, when the semester reopens to hold the event.

We are sorry, and hope to share the time and date of the rescheduled event soon when it becomes available.

Thanks.

If we put together a great report on how this turns out I could personally present it to my friend Doctor Thomas Mensah who is a Mac Eminent engineer, has over 14 patents and was a Nobel Nominee and the list goes on and on...

Great initiative guys, I can't wait to see/share the outcome.

A big thanks to Nyande Stephen, one of the former students of Koforidua sectech now at Legon, and the current president of the NSBE, for spending months in getting this arrangements in place.

After months of preparations, opportunity finally opened for Wikimedia Ghana User Group to hopefully join the NSBE community at Legon this 7th November for this meetup. All are invited.

Below is the invitation message from Nyande (tweaked a bit for brevity)

-----
Let's make a date with NSBE and Wikimedia Ghana User Group on the 7th of November as we discuss the opportunities Wikimedia Foundation sites have to offer and how we could improve Ghanaian and African related contents on Wikipedia.

Date: Saturday 7th November

Rate: free

Venue: Seminar Room, School Of Engineering Sciences, University of Ghana, Legon, Accra.

Time: 9am - 12pm GMT

NSBE, Power!
-----

I will be there myself (in my numbers). I know this is an impromptu arrangement, but it'll be great if we all can join in our numbers. Maybe it could be a mini meetup before our upcoming 'mega' meetup.

For further enquiries, please get in touch with Stephen, or simply respond to this mail. Thanks.

7th November!
