Dear Members,
I will like to sincerely thank the AWMD core team for such an opportunity
which was made possible by enabling us to get hands-on work to solve
real-time issues in the Wikimedia movement. I write to encourage us all to
keep our devotion burning and show the light from Africa because indeed we
are of great potential.
Through the AWMD program, I was opportune to work on a community engagement
project on contract and I had to build the FormWizard[1] extension for
MediaWiki. I encourage our developers to have a look and propose other
features which we can add to make the extension better. Your contributions
are most welcome.
At the moment the extension seems to be in its final stage, so we expect to
find simple bugs which can be fixed by AWMD members ( You can hit me up if
you are interested )
I will conclude by saying "Indeed Africa has the potential and let us make
use of this great gift from the Movement and shape the vision of the WM
Movement in out own way.
Cheers!
Egbe.

Dear community members,
The deadline for the Wiki-Indaba 2019 Community Engagement Survey has been shifted from August 3rd to August 17th, 2018. This is because the response to the survey was pretty low and we want to better understand what the community expects from the local organizing committee. If you have filled the survey, please prevail on other community members to do the same, if you have not, the survey takes less that three (3) minutes to fill, please do so now.
Please find below a link to the Wiki-Indaba 2019 Community Engagement Survey.
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1s7wvhWn1nqI_eFE1eww1Jl9gwD4VZq0nrrTz9TNJeo…
Please fill the survey before Friday August 17th so we can better understand your preferences for Wiki Indaba 2019.
Thank you.
Kayode YussufChair,
Wiki Indaba 2019 Communications Team
