Hi, I'd like to delegate the task of coordinating Wikinews language editions. The task consists of the following: 1) Keep an eye on http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikinews/Start_a_new_edition for language editions which have at least 5 supporters. 2) When that threshold is reached, contact the supporters and ask them to prepare the necessary translations / page creations at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/New_language_pre-launch 3) Keep an eye on that page as well for editions which are ready to go. 4) When an edition is ready to go, file a site request at http://bugzilla.wikipedia.org/ For bonus points: A new language edition initially needs to have uploads enabled until it uploads its own logo, then uploads need to be disabled until a fair use policy is established that clarifies under which circumstances users are allowed to upload files. Wikinews editions also need to be licensed under CC-BY, not GFDL. Beyond acting on your own, you would also be the first point of contact for all questions about the process. I'd be happy to go through it with you once more via Skype or phone. If you are interested in volunteering for this role, please contact me privately at erik AT wikimedia DOT org, and I will try to pick the person a) most qualified and b) most likely to do the work. ;-) -- Peace & Love, Erik Member, Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees DISCLAIMER: Unless otherwise stated, all views or opinions expressed in this message are solely my own and do not represent an official position of the Wikimedia Foundation or its Board of Trustees.
