Explain your plan

[edit]

Tell us about how you contribute currently, and how you would contribute if WMF were to gift a used laptop to you.

  • I have been a member of the wikimedia team of most of the projects organized in Ghana such as My northern achiever Dagbani contest and Wiki Loves Folklore 2021 in Ghana etc. I am contributing a lot in my local language(Dagbani) on Wikipedia and its sisters. I'm using my android phone in all the projects I participated in and most of them would have been easy for me if I had a laptop by then. Some activities can not be performed without a laptop. We still have many things to do as our language is part of the minor languages on Wikimedia. All things on Wikimedia will be the sole purpose of the laptop, ranging from editing to technical projects for the Wikimedia movement. I am going to use the laptop for volunteering cases solely for Wikimedia projects.

Affected projects

[edit]

Add the existing Wikimedia projects (Wikipedia, Commons, etc.) and language versions that you seek to impact with this equipment.

  • Wikipedia, Wikimedia commons and other projects in English and Dagbani

  1. Strong support I am in support of the idea to have a laptop to aid in Wikimedia activitiesAchiri Bitamsimli (talk) 22:17, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  2. I support this application.Alhassan Mohammed Awal (talk) 14:49, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Strong support Strong support Achiri Bitamsimli is an amazing contributor, very pasionate and dedicated toward improving access to his native language on Wikimedia projects. He is one the most active editors on Dagbani Wikipedia and regularly contributes on En wiki too. He manged to use his phone to contribute hundreds of media to Wikimedia Commons. I think he has the potential to do so much more if only he had access to a laptop. -—M@sssly 12:58, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Strong support Strong support As community leader, I can testify the zeal and energy of Achiri Bitamsimli when it comes to contributing to Wikimedia projects especially en Wikipedia, Wikidata, Dag Wikipedia and Wikimedia commons. Interestingly, he does all these from his mobile phone. I strongly believe he will do more if he has a laptop. I endorse his request Shahadusadik (talk) 16:51, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
