Just some notes on what happened in two days ... today day three is starting ...
I created the list when I told you the other day - then I sent out 50 invitations - to date there are 19 subscribers (take of the two of us who are moderators). Three of these invitations were sent to people (translators) who contrast the Italian wiktionary (they subscribed - maybe to have a reason to contrast me even more ;-) ... they are going to be future editors ... believe me :-) the others are partly translators and people I just had the e-mail address through various discussion groups.
So they are mixed.
None of the subscribers are people contributing to wiktionary (up to now).
So these kinds of mailing lists do work to promote our projects.
I would very much appreciate it if some of you started a similar list - in other languages.
If you do so - or would like to do so: please let me know - I'll help you with the promotion.
Now I won't promote the group actively for some weeks - just add the link to my normal footer of the e-mails I send (have a look below) - and let's see how this works. After that I'll do a further promotion round.
The word of the day for today is going to be "Sunday" (domenica) :-)
Ciao, Sabine
