 even under the most terrible conditions of disaster, censorship, or war.

 Dar Diwan has their reprinting of her novel

 could anyone reach them to ask about making (or helping make) an ebook?  We
 have a copy in my local library; I will see how I can help get it

[Srishti Sethi]

Hello all,

The first language community meeting is coming up in a few weeks - November
17th, 16:00 UTC.

If you're interested, you can sign up on this wiki page: <
https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Language_engineering/Community_meetings#Meetings>
[1].

We would like to invite all of you who are involved in creating content or
managing technical aspects across different language communities. This will
be a participant-driven meeting, where we collectively discuss specific
technical issues related to our language wikis and work together to find
possible solutions. This could involve anything from fixing a broken
template on the Kurdish wiki to brainstorming ideas for growing content on
the Tulu Wiktionary, currently in the Wikimedia Incubator, or celebrating
the creation of Fon Wikipedia, to using MinT for content translation.

You can view the meeting structure and add ideas for discussion to the
notes document here: <
https://etherpad.wikimedia.org/p/language-community-meeting-november-2023>
[2]

If you need interpretation support from English to another language, please
let us know by sending an email to sse...@wikimedia.org.

Looking forward to your participation!

Cheers,
Srishti & Jon

Oh my goodness this is very sad news to learn indeed.

May her beautiful soul rest in power.
