Chris Henner's proposal to limit future Wikimanias to the developing world caught my interest:

I'd certainly support that as we all ponder whether the US is a reasonable HQ anymore.

The official part of Wikimania is over, this does not prevent ourselves from celebrating Africa's first Wikimania online, in more particular: writing Wikipedia articles.
Africa is under represented in Wikipedia, by writing about it we both celebrate our great conference as well as we work on solving the Africagap
With some Dutchies we started the idea of having a list of like 10-20 articles of subjects from Cape Town and surrounding area. For example:
Well-known park in Cape Town: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Company%27s_Garden
The often referred to Dassie: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q323847
Input needed!
