Hi Elmarie,

Thank you so much for reaching out and asking. It would be super to have you involved and helping out however you can. That's a great question/request and one I am happy to help with.

The standard advice when contacting Wikipedia editors is to contact them on Wikipedia via either their talk page on their user page or emailing them via their user page. This is the easiest way as you don't have to find their contact details and they are generally very happy to be contacted through those channels as some editors don't like having their contact details being publicly known. Emailing can be done by going to their user page on Wikipedia and then selecting "*Email this user*" from the navigation tab on the left of the screen if you are on a laptop/desktop computer. If you are okay with your message being public then you can leave one on the talk page of their user page.

In this case I am however happy to give you Oesjaar's contact details because I know that he is comfortable with me doing that (even enthusiastic) and I also have it available. I will forward that to you privately.

Best regards and many thanks,

Douglas Scott

Hallo Douglas

Thank you for the update on all the events

I would like to get involved in the Adrikaans transition site. I clicked on Oesjaar and am amazed on what he/she achieved over the last few years!

Could I mail this person directly?

Would appreciate it.

Kind Regards,

Elmarie Waltman

Hello everyone,

We don't normally do this but the past seven days have been particularly eventful for the chapter so I thought I would write up a summary for everyone to share these activities. I would like to thank all the participants of the events we conducted over the past week, many of whom have now joined this mailing list. Welcome!

I have created a page on meta wiki to where this write up can be seen. Click the link below: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WM_ZA/October_2022
