Hi Ian,
Thanks for this update.
African language Wikipedia generally needs serious attention and we really need to engage native speakers of those language to keep it running.
In the last few months, the activity on Yoruba Wikipedia focus primarily on maintenance, including rewriting of bot-created articles, sourcing of unsourced contents, deletion of empty pages etc. See for example this edit <"https://yo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Aliyu_Modibbo_Umar&curid=1531... . https://yo.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Aliyu_Modibbo_Umar&curid=15317&diff=518965&oldid=518964l
We do want to focus on quality and not quantity.
Regards,
Isaac

Hi,
Thank you for publishing these reports regularly, Ian!
I can see a few languages missing. First of all, Kabiye (kbp) and Dinka (din) graduated out the Incubator in 2017.
There has also been some activity in the Dagbani (dag) Incubator in 2017: https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/dag
Finally, an Incubator in Fon (fon) started recently: https://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wp/fon . It's still very young, but I met the people involved, and they appear dedicated.
There may be some more languages missing that I haven't noticed.
