Hi, Douglas.

This is fantastic news!  Congratulations on pulling this off.  

Did you use any existing training resources (if so, which?), or your own design (if so, is it written up?)

I would also like to remind all reading that the WMF would be happy to support WMZA in outreach activities, with funds, merchandise, advice, guest posts on the Wikimedia Blog, and any other resources we may be able to offer.  

Thanks,

   Asaf

The workshop is almost entirely about editing.  Well that and increasing awareness of how easy it is to edit and how much new editors are needed on African language Wikipedia.  Looks like we will be having a follow up workshop on the 26th Feb but I will need to confirm that.

Thanks for the good wishes,

Douglas.

Congrats to you, Ian and everyone!  Looks like great work is going on!

+1 Looking forward to hearing about their progress! Will editing be part of a class?

Hello everyone,

Here are some of the previously promised pictures from Saturday's Wikipedia
workshop that I promised to send out.  I think the event went well and I am
looking forward to doing a follow up workshop in about two weeks time.
Many thanks to Ian and Ana for helping out and to Prof Nyamende from UCT's
African languages department for organising the computer labs and inviting
everyone.

Cheers,
