Greetings!
On behalf of Wikimedia Philippines, the Philippine local chapter of the
Wikimedia Foundation (responsible for websites such as Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia), I would like to invite everyone to come participate and/or
volunteer in Wikipedia Takes Manila!
Wikipedia Takes Manila is a Wikipedia Takes the City-style photo scavenger hunt,
where teams will go around the City of Manila and take photos of landmarks,
sites and places throughout the City of Manila. This event, the first of its
kind in the Philippines and Southeast Asia, is being organized as part of
Wikipedia X, events being held throughout the world in commemoration of
Wikipedia's tenth anniversary. Everyone, Wikipedians and non-Wikipedians alike,
are invited to participate in this contest. If you can form a team of up to
three people and have a camera plus a love of the City of Manila, come join us!
Prizes await the top three teams.
Wikipedia Takes Manila will be held on Wikipedia Day, January 15, 2011, at 9:00
am PST (tentative). The meeting place for the event will be held at Paco Park,
San Marcelino St., Paco, Manila, while the awards ceremony for teams and a party
for participants and guests will be (tentatively) at Max's Restaurant, Maria
Orosa Ave. cor. United Nations Ave., Ermita, Manila.
For more information, please visit
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Takes_Manila. Registration for
participants is now open; you can do so at

If you wish to volunteer, you can also send an e-mail to us at

Thanks and we hope to see you at Wikipedia Takes Manila!
Regards,
Josh

Dear all,
Movement roles project is a WMF project to clarify the roles and
responsibilities of different
entities, groups, and people working to support the international Wikimedia
movement.
For Asian Wikimedians, it is a great chance for us to share our opinions and
views.
That's why i would like to invite you to participate in the movement roles
project.
If you are Wikimedian who already have some knowledge of how the movement is
working,
you can answer the* Initial Questions*:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_roles_project/Initial_Questions
If you are representing your chapter or you are in relevant groups or
cooperative efforts,
you can answer the *Fact Base*:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Movement_roles_project/Movement_fact_base
For Fact Base, the pages for existed chapters and some known relevant
groups and
cooperative efforts are already reserved. You can just edit the page that
you are in.
In fact, you can just finish a part of the questions that you are interested
instead of finishing
the whole set. At least i know somebody did the same thing. But of
course,*it must be the
*
*best if you can finish the whole set, then we can get a complete idea from
you or your*
*chapters.*
*The deadline is in Mid-January 2011. *We will collect and analyse all the
data before
the meeting on 28/29 January 2011.
I am in the working group of this project, so if you have any questions or
difficulties when
you are participating, you can contact me.
Thank you very much. I hope i can see your answers on Initial Questions and
you chapter's
information on the face base! :-)

Cheers,
Morgan
