Thanks for the assignment. I think i will need a little couching on my role in this project. For a uploading of pictures i have no problem doing that. I think we can meet at accra mall, there are open places where we can meet and discuss the project into details. ---------- Sent from my Nokia phone ------Original message------ From: Sandister Tei <sandister(a)sandistertei.com> To: "Planning Wikimedia Ghana Chapter" <wikimedia-gh(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Date: Sunday, November 4, 2012 3:14:33 PM GMT+0000 Subject: [Wikimedia-GH] Georgina is in and other roles RE: Planning Wikimedia Ghana & Election 2012 So now we have two bloggers for WMF blog-- Kobe and Georgina; a photographer-- Bright; a Wikinews contributor-- Georgina. Kobe and Georgina, which one of you is interested in being "Volunteering WMF Blog Aide"? To coordinate all other bloggers for the WMF blog? Let me know. Also I have sent you both invites to join the PWMGH blogspot http://planningwikimediaghana.blogspot.com/. We will not be blogging there per se but I want to keep at as the hub of all our work since it is more easier to find your way around than wiki pages. Most of us except Rexford are newbies This project is more of a learning ground for us. We are a bit too late for Elections 2012 to now waste time exploring Mediawiki to build a more attractive and functional page. Blogspot for me is the way to go. I want to put Bright in charge of orienting and aiding people on Commons about photography etc. He can take up "Volunteering Wikimedia Commons Aide" (VWCA for short) I think he took part in the WLM 2012, he should know how to upload by now. Georgina, regarding Wikinews I will assign myself "Volunteering Wikinews aide" to help you and all others learn about the platform So who else is helping out? Senam what do you want to do? Rexford? You've been quiet We also need funding. We have souvenirs to give out but at least we should be able to provide internet for ourselves. Any ideas? Who knows anyone at Glo, Vodafone? MTN? We need a place to meet as well.

I am very good at taking photos, how can i volunteer with my skills for this project. ---------- Sent from my Nokia phone ------Original message------ From: Sandister Tei <sandister(a)sandistertei.com> To: "wikimedia-gh(a)lists.wikimedia.org" <wikimedia-gh(a)lists.wikimedia.org>,"sandyboy250(a)yahoo.com" <sandyboy250(a)yahoo.com>,"roysandytei(a)gmail.com" <roysandytei(a)gmail.com>,"Rex" <nkansahrexford(a)gmail.com>,"Ato" <abocco(a)gmail.com>,"Akyaan(a)gmail.com" <akyaan(a)gmail.com>,"Oheneba Boakye Ansah" <sirlaw01(a)yahoo.com> Date: Friday, November 2, 2012 5:21:28 PM GMT+0000 Subject: [Wikimedia-GH] Planning Wikimedia Ghana & Election 2012 Hello friends! We have been quiet for a while. But with the coming Election 2012, we can embark on some useful projects and collaborations to contribute what we can as knowledge/content creators. It will also be easy to ride on the wave of the political fever in the country to edit and contribute massively to Ghanaian content especially those covering politics and development relevant to December 7. For those who desire to contribute and edit wikis but haven't been able to, this is your time to participate. I propose a project: #Wiki4Election2012Gh (#Wi4EGh) The hash tag speaks for itself. The campaign simply involves editing and creating Wikipedia articles and curating photographs for Wikimedia Commons that will profile political parties, competing politicians (flag-bearers and MPs alike) and constituencies. Basically summed up as Know Your Political Parties (#KOPP), Know Your Politicians (#KOP), Know Your Constituencies (#KOC) We want the electorate to see for themselves the situation on the ground. If we can we will obtain photos from years back, not only current ones. We will entertain no biases. Via Wikinews we should also publish every breaking news and election results. We should also let the WMF know our progress by sending reports to the Sign Post and Wikimedia blog. Things Needed: Official letters to political parties to provide all necessary info on politicians to be used in Wikipedia Articles Press release of the project Edithons Internet for edithons A place for edithons Bloggers for Wikimedia blog Writers for Wikinews Volunteers for articles and uploads Incentives for volunteers Funds for the project We need collaboration with a news website We also need advertisement, letting Ghanaians know that such educational resources for elections are available so they visit the pages and inform themselves with the information. So who is up for some history making, mark making, mother Ghana serving, educational project? Get back to me or Rexford and let's know who we can count on for anyform of support.

Planning Wikimedia Ghana & Election 2012

Hello friends! We have been quiet for a while. But with the coming Election 2012, we can embark on some useful projects and collaborations to contribute what we can as knowledge/content creators. It will also be easy to ride on the wave of the political fever in the country to edit and contribute massively to Ghanaian content especially those covering politics and development relevant to December 7. For those who desire to contribute and edit wikis but haven't been able to, this is your time to participate. I propose a project: #Wiki4Election2012Gh (#Wi4EGh) The hash tag speaks for itself.

I currently have access to the jury tool and I'll love if one or two person can join me do the judging. I wouldn't like a situation whereby my not-so-good eyes will only do the judging. At least 1 or two more persons joining me will be okay. Any volunteer? By the way, we're still waiting for the shipped goodies from WLM to use as prizes for the nicest photos contributors.
