Hi there, sorry if this may be off-topic. I'm an admin @ it.wp and I'm also part of the WikiAfrica Project (http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progetto:WikiAfrica).
We're in possession of the updated datas about the administrative divisions of Botswana (up to villages) and we'd like to upload them on as many WP version as possible. We're in contact with some bot-owners on it.wp, sv.wp, nl.wp, pl.wp, and tn.wp.
What we need is a bot owner that can help us in programming a script and create these articles, and of course some help for the translations in your native language.
If you are interested in it or you need any clarification, please feel free to contact me.
Cheers,

I suggest you to take a look at CSV loader plugin for AutoWikiBrowser. It is simple that even a non-IT person can run it. The animal project on Dutch wiki used it to create 300,000 new articles. I have used it to create 18,000 new snail articles on English wiki. The plugin is available at:

Let me if you have any questions.

This is REALLY interesting (also for other things I had in mind, actually). I'll take a look at it, and let you know.
Thank you very much!
