WereSpielChequers, the different varieties of Portuguese is not the problem here. It actually hasn't been a problem for a while. :))) James and Adele, I am sincerely happy to know that WMF is not only aware of it but also applying and thinking about measures to solve the problem. Maybe opening large doors to Wikipedia is not enough. Unfortunately, we are frustrating many users that come to Wikipedia and Commons expecting a place to share their selfies and create profiles about themselves. Even though they are acting in good faith, it is a pain to repeatedly delete files and tell new users that they can't create an article about themselves. The good part of dealing with a good faith user is that all we need to do to stop them or fix the problem somehow is informing them the right. After knowing the right, previous mistakes won't be repeated in most cases. We are, however, doing that several times to several users. Maybe we could use ways of reaching more users in a row with loud speakers. I believe that if they are told that they can't upload certain files for instance, a large part of them won't. What if we use sitenotice with geolocalization to Angola? What if we try reaching them through social medias as they also have free access to it in some cases? What if we look for local editors to share Wikipedia knowledge, communicate with press and engage other local editors to raise grounds for generating regular editors there? That may be a hard one but what if we rethink ways of communication and recognize that user talk page is far from optimal to connect with new users? Sorry if that sounds naive but I can't come with better ideas. When I say we should inform them, I am obviously not underestimating people of Angola and not trying to do some kind of "catechism". It is just trying to improve their learning curve about wiki. Blocking is a desperate and sometimes necessary measure but not a solution. Limiting uploads is not so different though more specific, but actually even on Commons there are many problems on editing too and not only with uploading. A well deserved barnstar to the one with an insightfull idea about it.
