hello All
Happy Wiki Day ... sorry I won't be able to make it, I am in the middle of the launch for the #15 Challenge.
After the picnic, you might want to join in ...
The Wiki Love Women writing contest is now officially open !
Please join in to celebrate Wikipedia 15 by participating to the bilingual (English/French) writing contest to increase the number of notable African women that are covered on Wikipedia.
The contest is also meant as a starting point of Wiki Loves Women, a content liberation project related to Women in Africa.
We would love to see you participate to the writing contest !
If you want to, there are 3 ways to participate
* You want to create an article ? Please add your name here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Women/Writing_Contest/Tea.... You may be solo, or you could seek the help of others to join your team. Or you can join an already existing team. You must start a new article (translation from another language is allowed). You have 15 days :)
* Or you may simply add suggestions for articles to write here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Women/Writing_Contest/Art.... Of course, be careful of notability etc.
* Or you would be willing to join the jury. If so, please drop to the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Women/Writing_Contest/Jur... to propose your help
It is all meant to be an easy going contest... no hassle... just for the pleasure of working together on a theme still little covered on Wikipedia (even after 15 years...)

Hello everyone,
This is a last moment reminder that we will be having a small picnic today at De Waal Park in Oranjezicht today from 4pm onwards. Below are the details.
Place: De Waal Park, Oranjezicht, City Bowl, Cape Town
Time: 4pm to 7pm
Date: today
So if you are free, join us for this small informal event to celebrate Wikipedia's 15th birthday. I will setup a local wifi zone so we can get some editing done as well.
Cheers,
Douglas.
