Great to hear it is up. Eventually I had to go another rout to get it setup. Because we
only have one banner add that advertises both the AGM and the launch I though it best to
make it visible to logged in people across all the Wikis. I did not want to run the risk
of us having members of the public (non Wikipedians) show up at the AGM. That might be a
bit awkward.
My understanding is that there will be a universal banner for WLM on throughout September
so I haven't lined up an add for that. However I would like to get everyone's
opinion on that as to whether or not I should setup a ZA specific banner add for WLM
throughout September?
Cheers,
Douglas.

Woohoo! Our banner ad is up, and even outside the
watchlist area! I
like the pictures!
It only shows if you're logged in, though.

Via that banner add system unfortunately yes.
BTW, does it work?
This weekend (between the OSF grant application and the other preporations
for WLM and Wikimania 2015) I want to see about setting some thing up on a
different banner system and getting invites to people on their user pages.
Cheers,
Douglas.

That's quite a pity! I guess we'll get hardcore editors only then.

A quick note on geonotices (that I only just
realised), they are only
visible through the 'watchlist' page on Wikipedia.
