Hello Racheal
Your presentation looks great. Depending on what you're looking for, I've been working on improving content about Africa, adding more African Language Wikipedias to the incubator as well as advocating and increasing the number of young Africans editing Wikis. This falls in line with "Sustainability of the Movement" and some other movement Strategy recommendations and initiatives. 

Let me know if this sounds good to you.
Good luck in your presentation.

Hello WREN friends,

 

I’ve mentioned that I’m doing a lightning talk on why WiRs should edit Wikipedia. I mention the work of Mary Mark Ockerbloom, John P. Sadowski, and Ji Yun Alex Jung, as well as the recent Smithsonian intern Mia Cariello.

 

Please let me know if:

  1. You are mentioned and you would like me to
    1. not mention you or
    2. use a different example of your work.
  2. You would like me to mention your work (I’m looking for examples that help fill some of the knowledge gaps identified by WMF).
  3. You have other comments.

 

You can see my draft here.
