[Request for Interview] Future of Language Incubation in Wikimedia

Hi @Bobbyshabangu

I would like to invite you to a brief 60-minute online interview about your experience with contributing to a new Wikimedia in your language. Your insights will help us improve the process for emerging language communities.

Please let me know if you're available for a Google Meet call during the upcoming week between 25th to 30th November 2024. I am available at sgill@wikimedia.org.

Thanks

Invitation to connect with fellow contributors from language onboarding experiment

Hello,

Hope this message finds you well! I would like to invite you to a community conversation to connect with fellow contributors from pilot wikis (Southern Ndebele, Tai Nüa, Iban, Obolo, Pannonian Rusyn) that graduated through a Language Onboarding Experiment last year. In this conversation, we plan to facilitate sharing learnings, discussing technical needs post-graduation, and collaborating on solving challenges faced by the pilot wikis.

We spoke with a few contributors from these wikis back in December, and their valuable input on contributions has given us some perspectives on what to investigate next. A report will soon be published on those learnings. We hope that this meeting will not only be a great opportunity for us to come together and learn from each other but also allow us to use your valuable input to shape our plans for the coming year! If you can attend the call, please sign up here, and I will share more details later:

• 5 April 2025, 01:00 UTC
• 4 April 2025, 15:00 UTC

Looking forward to your participation!
