Good day,
So one of the points identified during the first Wikimedia Indigenous Languages meeting was for the need of promoting WIL itself among the Wikimedia community so we can gather more people. Does any of you have idea or suggestion on how to carry that?
I think it will also be important to promote WIL outside of the Wikimedia community, but perhaps we should wait to be more "established" before doing that.
Thanks, JP Béland

First of all, I'm very sorry I couldn't make it to the first meeting -I miscalculated the timing. Please accept my apologies..
Now, back to the topic, we could post banners or something on small wikis +the incubator, don't you think?

We could also place announcement of the creation of Wikimedia Indigenous Languages in the different medias used by Wikimedia, i.e. the Wikimedia blog, the Signpost, etc.
If any of you have contacts writing those, please ask them to put a little line about WIL in the next issue.

What about the Signpost? Several of the larger Wikipedias also have language WikiProjects that I think might be interested.

I already put a note on talk pages of main language WikiProjects of English and French Wikipedias, if people involved on other Wikipedia could do the same in their language, it would be great.
That`s right for the Signpost, if you know where they write it, please feel free to send them a text about the creation of Wikimedia Indigenous Languages please.
