ROCK ON!
I'm taken some of the quotes to be included in Wikimania Press kit...However, I've not used the names, and simply put Wikipedian User and Teacher, Wikipedian User and Father, etc.
This is awesome...sorry, when I went to the page, I had no idea it had grown so much! also, Would someone be willing to follow up with the following and actually try to contact and get a direct quote from Professor Isola and Prof. Adewole. Maybe conduct a short interview? this would be a cool case study to actual write...ie about a page.
Let me know if someone wants to follow up with this.
News about Yoruba wikipedia on Radio
News about the Yoruba wikipedia was broadcast on Radio today (11th June, 2007) at Orisun FM Radio, Ile-Ife, Nigeria. Both Prof Isola and Prof Adewole who commented on the wikipedia were of the opinion that now that many Yoruba students are used to the internet, a wikipedia written in Yoruba will encourage them to develp more interest in the language.
