Add topicYour CentralNotice translation
[edit]Hey Coolsam726. I think you accidentally removed a line when translating Wikimania 2010/CentralNotice#sw. Could you please add the translation for "Registration for Wikimania 2010 is now open." on there? Thanks for your help! Cbrown1023 talk 21:20, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry for the error and thanks for the correction. I have translated the line. I'm Samson Maosa a.k.a Coolsam726 05:05, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Kenyan Wikipedian Stories
[edit]Hi!
My name is Victor Grigas and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation in San Francisco. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community from around the world. Stories are critical to inform and inspire the general public to support the Wikipedia movement by donating their money or to become volunteers themselves.
After seeing this inspiring story about Kenya's very own Gabriel Nderitu -
and hearing about the 'Project for Kenyan Schools', I thought that it might be fruitful to plan a trip to Kenya to interview Kenyan Wikipedians face-to-face.
I would need to confirm that I have at least 15 people to speak with who may have interesting stories about Wikipedia to make the trip worth the money. If needed, I could hire a translator. My understanding is that iHub in Nairobi hosts Wiki-meetups once a month. It may be feasible to attend a meetup there and interview people individually after that?
Please let me know what you think, I would very much like the opportunity to represent Wikimedia Kenya in the fundraiser this year.
I am sending this message to everyone I can reach at Wikimedia Kenya. Please let me know if there is a more formalized process to reach people.
Thank you for your time,
Victor Grigas

Grants:IEG/Wikipedia likes Galactic Exploration for Posterity 2015
[edit]Dear User:Coolsam726,
People suggested that I consult with fellow Wikipedians to get feedback and help to improve my idea about "As an unparalleled way to raise awareness of the Wikimedia projects, I propose to create a tremendous media opportunity presented by launching Wikipedia via space travel."
I plan to use the WikiOffline and OpenZIM content library as the basis of the content launched into outer space.
Please see the idea at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IEG/Wikipedia_likes_Galactic_Exploration_for_Posterity_2015. Please post your suggestions on the talk page and please feel free to edit the idea and join the project.
Thank you for your time and attention in this matter. I appreciate it.
My best regards, Geraldshields11 (talk) 14:03, 16 October 2015 (UTC)
