Dear all,
I am excited to share some of the latest updates from the Ghanaian Wikipedia communities that I am currently supporting as part of the A+F West African language project. As you may be aware, the Gurene Wikipedia https://gur.wikipedia.org/ was approved last month, and this week, the Ghanaian Pidgin and the Fante Wikipedia incubators have also been approved. I started the West African language project to initially support the Dagbani, the Gurene, and the Ghanaian Pidgin language Wikis in Ghana. Four more languages are coming on board!
On the other hand, I am excited to share that we will be hosting a two-day language meetup in Tamale https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ghanaian_Languages_Meetup for all nine language communities in Ghana, including the three language communities that A+F is currently supporting under the West African language program. The event is funded through the WMF Rapid Program. The meetup will be added to the A+F event dashboard soon.
I am very excited about this event, as I will be engaging all the language communities in Ghana.
