Following a talk I gave at Northwestern University this fall, a nice little article about African-language Wikipedias appeared in the newsletter of the Africana Libraries Newsletter:
http://www.indiana.edu/~libsalc/african/aln/ALN132.pdf (2nd page)

I'm especially pleased about this because I would love to see African studies departments (and especially African language classes) to incorporate contributing to Wikipedia into their curriculum, and I think librarians are well-placed to encourage this and do the training. Thanks to Marcia Tiede at Northwestern for writing the article.

best,
Phoebe
