Re: [Wikimedia-GH] Grant report, national volunteering day and companies' articles

Hello *all* I was at the Chale Wote 2013 festival, I have created an article and Enock made some useful edits to it. This will be the second article created for a commercial entity by me/us, with the Be Bold Show being the first. The Be Bold team (I met them at the festival coincidentally) and Chale Wote peeps are thinking about bringing team members to us for training so they can learn to edit and update the articles. If it happens, praise the Lord. On other matters I hope fellow 7 other editors are doing your duties to Ghanaian articles. It is why we are here. It is not by force please. I can't stress this enough. I don't want us to become an over-hyped community that does nothing really. I want us to have measurable results in our hands. National Volunteering Day (correct me) is coming up. I see people promoting volunteerism all over the place. It will be hypocrisy for us as volunteers for Ghanaian information online to be sharing the posters on our walls without engaging people on the topic of Wikipedia and how it is kept going by volunteers like us. *Enock, *you should have an idea of what you should be talking about on soc. med. by now with 21 around the corner. We need to use the opportunity to encourage people to edit Wikipedia. And please come up with stronger strategies. Nonetheless thank you for the posts, you take volunteering to another level. *Rex, *I will forward the t&t expenses soon ok? The chilling has made tired. Please declare your edits.
