We are falconers of our language and we have been flying tremendously.
Thanks to our falconer Wikipedia for giving us the global platform to
promote and standardized our Mother tongue.
Bravo to Wikipedia, the common man's source of knowledge and the wealth of
all authentic knowledge. We are proud wikimedians and we celebrate with
Wikipedia and promise to keep working for the common good of all and
sundry.
Long live Wikipedia!
Long live our all wikimedians!!

Dear all,
I hope this email finds you settling back in after the holidays (or
ideally, still on vacation).
I'm sharing an opportunity to join what should be a great event at the end
of this month!
You are warmly invited to register for the *free and hybrid* conference, "A
Right to Research in Africa?" which is hosted by ReCreate from January 23 -
27. Information about the conference is here [1] and you can still register
to attend virtually [2]. The conference will cover a week of debates on
copyright and access to knowledge, with discussions that range from
digitising heritage to accessing African Data on health and the
environment. Wikimedians will be hosting some of the sessions, including
Douglas Scott from Wikimedia South Africa and Wikimedia Deutschland will
also share some of their work around "public money - public good" [3].
Tune in for one or more sessions & please feel free to share with others
who you think might be interested.
All the best,
Ziski
