[Wikimedia-l] Re: Launch of the course "OpenRefine for Wikimedia Commons: the basics"

[Shaba 50]

Greetings Giovanna and Sandra,

Thank you for sharing this exciting news about the free and publicly
accessible course on WikiLearn.

I am always looking for new ways to learn more about OpenRefine and
Wikimedia Commons, so I am thrilled to see this resource available.

I will definitely be enrolling in the course and will share it with my
colleagues who may be interested as well.

Thanks again, and have a great weekend

Best Regards,
Aliyu Shaba.

 Guys, I’m glad for the wikimedians of Botswana and we’re now cheering
 for them in a pub in Samarkand, but I’ve checked their page and found two
 resolutions on recognition — one dated by 2017 and another is this one. Can
 anyone explain what have happened?

 Hi everyone!

 I'm very happy to announce that the Affiliations Committee has
 recognized [1] Wikimedia Community User Group Botswana [2] as a Wikimedia
 User Group. The group aims to to promote the use of Wikimedia and its
 sister projects by the residents of Botswana, and to also help in creating
 awareness on how the everyday Botswana can contribute to the pool of free
 knowledge, which is Wikimedia; most especially in the translation efforts
 into the major local languages (Setswana).

 Please join me in congratulating the members of this new user group!

 Regards,
 Jeffrey Keefer
