Hi Heather,
I like the Facebook idea. Let me know once you have the page setup/group so I can join and we can share ideas on how to add articles to Sesotho WP. Having the WP closes should not be an option.
Regards Mohau

Hey K,
I agree with you - we need this to be organic otherwise it will be unsustainable. When Gerard first told me about the problem, I said that
it
was impossible for just Nhlanhla and I to 'save Sotho Wikipedia'. But
then
I thought: actually it might be interesting to at least tell Sotho speakers that it might be removed (actually, I don't think they ever completely remove - they move to the incubator or something) and see
what
happens.
There are a few people interested, it seems, on Facebook and they're thinking of setting up a page to discuss. It would be nice if we could
go
over there and help them and encourage them. But if it doesn't work,
then
I feel like it's not serious. Just keep the channels open, ya know :)
How does that sound to people?
