We are presenting on the 10th. Would be great to have
your help. Look
forwards to meeting.
James
I hope you will be able to drop a word about the (hopefully) next
Wikivoyage as an "Adopting an existing project into Wikimedia" : Wikikids!
We've been refining and developing it. See:
Wikikids <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikikids>
Talk:Wikikids <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikikids>

There is not the same forking issue as you had with Wikitravel. Vikidia
would be the main one to be adopted (french and spanish). The promoters
of Wikikids.nl didn't decide yet if they would join. However, if they
don't, there would be no point to fork their wiki and create another one
in dutch against their will.
However, there would be the Simple English Wikipedia issue, for which
there is already this page : Wikikids/Relation to Simple English
Wikipedia
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikikids/Relation_to_Simple_English_Wikipedia>.
Have a nice stay in Hong-Kong ! (And elsewhere for the other
Wikivoyagers ;-) )

James,
Shame on me but I've just noticed now this email.
I'll be glad to help the team in reviewing the presentation and
its content.
When it's planed the "show"? If it's not on the very first day, we
can have time to site together to work on it.
Let me know,
Andrea

Okay we have a spot to give a talk at Wikimania.

While I am happy to help I do not think I am best positioned to
speak on Wikivoyage. Would like to invite all to begin
collaborating here on google docs on this 25 minute presentation.

Hi James,
nice to "virtually" meet you.
As said by Nemo, I'm a sysop of the Italian version of this
young wiki-project.
As you can see by my (and my bot) contribution I'm very
enthusiastic of this project because it touches two of my main
interests in life: travel and computer science.
Last year, during my Indian holiday preparation I've
contributed a lot as anonymous to the English version of
wikitravel because unfortunately I've noticed the big gap of
completeness and usefulness between the English and Italian
versions. Once I've known that WM has decided to "adopt" this
project I've decided to do my all best to try to cover this gap.
Since now I've focus my attention on tiding-up the site but
once it will be "done", it would be nice to think on some
improvement like the en:voy and de:voy are already doing.
I'll look forward to meet you and all the guys involved in
wikivoyage.
Andrea

it.voy sysop
and bureaucrat.
