---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Bence Damokos" <bdamokos(a)gmail.com> Date: Feb 19, 2013 9:59 PM Subject: Wikimania reminder To: "Affiliations Committee list" <affcom(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Cc: "Carlos Colina" <jewbask(a)wikimedia.org.ve> Hi all, The international Wikimania conference[1] will be organized this year in Hong Kong. There are scholarships available for dedicated volunteers like you: If you are planning to attend Wikimania 2013 in Hong Kong and need financial assistance, please remember to apply for a scholarship [2] since your presence would help develop your affiliate through the knowledge and contacts you gain. We are human beings and our bonds strengthen more through face-to-face meetings and work sessions. Some of us at the Affiliations Committee plan to attend Wikimania this summer and we would really like to see you all there and interact with other Wikimedians from around the globe and, who knows? maybe during Wikimania some new ideas that you can use in your community start to develop! The deadline for applying is 23:59 UTC this Friday, February 22, 2013, so if you haven't applied yet, hurry! Please also forward this reminder to other members of your group. Best regards, Bence Damokos, Affiliations Committee [1]: http://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org [2]: http://wikimania2013.wikimedia.org/wiki/Scholarships -- You are receiving this e-mail because you have been in contact with the Affiliations Committee about setting up an affiliate and the Affiliations Committee would like the widest possible representation of volunteers to be present at Wikimania.

WikiWomen's History Month
by Sarah Stierch 15 Feb '13

15 Feb '13

[Pardon the cross-posts - and the English message] - Please forward as well! Hi everyone, March is Women's History Month, and this will be the second year for WikiWomen's History Month, an *international* collaborative event that takes place offline at edit-a-thons and online through project focuses. Events and projects focus on improving women's history coverage on any language project. We have a page on English Wikipedia, like last year, to gather all of the events: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiWomen%27s_History_Month So far we have events in South America, Europe and the United States. I hope you'll consider throwing an event in your town, village, or city - or do a women's history focus for your WikiProject - large or small!

Two edit-a-thons
by Sandister Tei 14 Feb '13

14 Feb '13

I am happy that at least some of you showed up for the editing training. Please start editing real articles now but ALWAYS use "show preview" first before saving a page. For more complex stuff, use your sandbox. New users please note that from today the 24th to February 24th you should have at least a 100 edits on Wikipedia. Ghanaian articles need our help and Planning Wikimedia Ghana should be at the forefront of this. I am also happy to announce that Sarkodie's management is willing to collaborate on our Azonto article. I am contacting Gasmilla/llian next. Without the permission of these people, the article won't have the necessary multimedia content. The elections 2012 article suffered greatly because we couldn't even get free images of our own presidential candidates to add to the text. Any comments and contributions are welcome. Wikimedia outreach in Ghana is ongoing. Anyone in Accra/Tema to join in the trainings?

I have visited the article and added some edits. Does the school have an available crest? I put in an info box and without the crest, it looks quite boring. But I am happy with the Seth Duodo. He has done very well. --Sandister Tei, geeked by Samsung. www.sandistertei.com | 0203572222Nkansah Rexford <nkansahrexford(a)gmail.com> wrote: Though his first time, Seth Duodu of Koforidua Poly did a good job in bringing these contents up for Wikipedia and writing them up.

by Nkansah Rexford 08 Feb '13

08 Feb '13

Hello folks Tomorrow, I'll be at the All Nations University new site at 11:30am for the second and final part of our training sessions. Last week, we learned a lot of 'theories' behind Wikipedia and the Media Wiki software in general. Tomorrow, we'll be jumping into the 'practicals', the real work - contributing to articles, and starting some. I hope to meeting you guys.
