Hello,
I'm writing this as the follow-up to Jimmy Wales' Wikimania keynote about small Wikipedias, or, as some people correctly say, Wikipedias in underprivileged languages. (It's strange to use the word "small" anywhere near Bengali, for example.)
Is there some recorded body of knowledge about the existing attempts to engage small language communities? The only thing that i know is the parts with Ndesanjo Macha in "The Truth According To Wikipedia". They are very inspiring, but very small.
Were there any people that, for example, worked with schools that function in underprivileged languages and tried to teach students there to write Wikipedia articles in their language? If there were, can i read, hear or watch their experiences anywhere?
