I don't know her then.
Speak to her and see.

Well @ Ato - I'm talking about Ruth Kwakwa, she just got the
appointment less than a month ago...

Nice @ Kweku.
I didn't think of Ashesi before because I was really into Legon
as per their history department.
Did you mean Esi Ansah as dean? I think we should start with that
particular class and not with Ashesi as a whole though.
I am happy to talk to Patrick too.

Hi Dede and all,
Sorry this comes a late hour... Unfortunately, I no longer
have access to a phone with wassup so I will be missing in
action on that front; at least for a couple of weeks until I
can get a proper replacement to my phone. Again, I was busy
over last week and the weekend with little access to internet
hence I could not response to this mail until now.
Realistically, I will love to offer my services in the second
category of members (in fact the second option for all two
categories) and guarantee a minimum of 8 hours a week towards
editing; that is 5 hours a week and the remaining 3 split
evenly over the weekend. Editing is my strongest suite hence
my offer however my resolve comes with some baselines the
most prominent being; ideally, a 24 hour deadline for each
piece to allow for a more holistic output and presentation; I
may dedicate an hour of actual sit-down time to edit but I
will definitely spend more time interacting with piece before
and after that hour prior to rendering in the final piece.
Additionally, I would love to dedicate another 2 hours, each
week, towards content/ editorial development and resolving
general community issues. This brings my total weekly
participation time to 10 hours a week - for now.
Now in response to earlier discussions on partnership
prospects with educational institutions, I happen to know the
new dean of students for Ashesi University who just happens
to be a close friend. I could talk to her about some
prospects for engagement. My pitch will delve into the
amazing opportunity this will give Ashesi to nurture the
minds and knowledge base of wiki-readers on the Ghanaian
situation by providing content for the platform. I know they
have a class of some sort which reviews and discusses new
trends and news in and out of Ghana and how these affect the
socio-economic growth of the country as a whole. We could get
them to transcribe their daily discussions which we in turn
can revert into solid content linked with reputable sources...
The prospects are certainly endless and just a phone call
away - that is once the team agrees... In fact *Ato *can be a
valuable resource here since he has a good relationship with
the President of the University, Patrick Awuah.
Do revert your thoughts and comments...
I bid you all a most productive day.
Sincerely,
Kweku Darteh ANANE-APPIAH

Hi all,
I assume you saw my Whatsapp message and so you are updated.
Until we start having meetings and affording them, we would
have to resort to long emails.
*About Mailing list*
*
*
The emails will now come from mailing list given us by
Wikimedia.
Our coordinator Rexford and co handle this list and so they
will be the best people to tell us what we gain from mailing
lists and other how tos about it.
*@Rexford* *@Oral*kindly enlighten us if you can especially
with what that “Digest” means
*Discussion and Talk pages*
*
*
I am happy to announce that we are really involved in a very
resourceful project. Wikimedia has all the infrastructure we
need to run our projects smoothly but the problem is there
are so many we miss some at times.
Let me introduce to you user talk and discussion pages. I
have done some explanations
herehttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Planning_Wikimedia_Ghana
Please let’s read. The key to figuring out Wikimedia is to
read. This will now be our discussion grounds. I learnt
Wikimedia monitors all these pages to see our progress and
involvement.
*
*
*@Ato,*you articulated some views in the chatroom about how
we can get work done. I am inviting you to go to this
pagehttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Planning_Wikimedia_Ghanaand
put that suggestion under the “Suggestions” segment. I will
be glad to assist with any questions you have.
*Membership*

It has come to my notice since joining Wiki that there are*3
types of motivation*for this project. This is not an
official categorization but I see it.
1.They are members who like Wikimedia like to be associated
with this big name. Beyond that, they do nothing.
2.There are members who also love open source and creating
and distributing free educational and informational resources.
3.There are also others who are experts in a field and they
want to lend their expertise to chapter formation without
necessarily contributing or editing often.
Guys, as Acting operations manager, I can only sweat and
dedicate myself to those joining Planning Wikimedia for the
categories 2 and 3.
*@Ato and@ Oral*have made it clear they belong to 3. Ato is
our Act. Advisor and Oral is Act. PRO
*@Georgina @Harold @Kweku*determine where you belong/ what
you can offer. So I know what to expect from you
I have also noticed once again that there are 2 levels of
involvement with the little research I have done.
1.Some Wikimedians are hard core editors/ contributors. Some
have edited and contributed 100000s of times. Amazing stuff.
Some of such gurus are NOT even members of a chapter.
2.Some people have just 100s of edits yet they work hard to
hold the chapter’s activities together in ensuring that
1000000s of edits come from the countries where their
chapter is based.
Please note that the Wikimedia Ghana’s chapter’s vision is
to nuturing people like 1. So*@Georgina @Harold
@Kweku*y’all have been here some days now. If you want to
join 2., make me aware so that I can integrate you in to
administration properly.
I am diving into the About My School Project
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Ghana/About_My_School_Contestwith
all intensity. I need people who have sacrificed themselves
that I can call on. I don’t want to chase anyone.
Regards,
*Sandister Tei*
