Thanks for all the hopeful notes I received privately and publicly this week end :-) I now have to tell my boss. Ouch. Ray Saintonge a écrit: I have showed him how to use it. Here is the page of the article he wrote : http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:William/Le_Sahara_alg%C3%A9rien Kids were set up in team (which I did not know at first). His team mate was a brazilian girl (which allowed me to make new brazilian friends) with who he prepared a big poster where they pasted several pictures. Though initially planned in february, they presented their work in june :-) It was extremely well appreciated and he got a 20/20:-) However, I stopped the experiment of him editing for several reasons. First, my husband was not happy *at all* with it. Second, wikipedia was too slow in spring, which was upsetting. Adults easily switch from one page to another during loading time, not kids; so it is quite boring. I also noticed the interface was too complicated for him and he had pain to remember where to access what. So, even after a while, he was very far from independant. If we ever do a wiki for kids, we'll have to improve the interface I fear. Currently, he is giving most of his computer time playing Alpha Centauri :-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_Meier%27s_Alpha_Centauri As for Wikimania, I have considered bringing the family along, but considered at least 3 would be very bored, not knowing anyone, with only conferences to have fun. So, no, they will not come..... ant
