Re: [Wikimedia-GH] Wikipedia Education Program and other events held by members

Reporting is one Sandister's good at, and I personally tries to learn from.

On that note, will put in a short report on the session that happened at
Barcamp Koforidua soon.

Great example!

 there.

[Ato Ulzen-Appiah]

Hehe, well, on average, people in other countries tend to be more proactive
in Ghana.
Hence, I really like those those who are *proactive* in Ghana.

I should add that *reporting and communication* is another thing we
generally have to do better in Ghana. If anyone is looking for an example,
look at Sandister. Or just this awesome Google Doc

report
she once sent.

 It doesn't help the community when Wikipedia related projects are run
 in Ghana and at least this community is not involved. Especially when those
 running the projects are aware of this community.

 In that stead, I would also encourage Justice and co to google around a
 bit for Wikipedia related events happening in Ghana to ensure this
 community is also aware of everything.

 If we want to go far, we must go together.

 Ato

Ato, that first sentence should be a quote registered in your name, right?
Let's just change 'Ghana' to 'World'

Let's share what we work on with the community more.

Indeed, if we want to go far, we must go together.

 This is not compulsory, however if your partners in the events think
 they are dealing with an entire group which is the Wikimedia Ghana UG, then
 I think it's fair you tell the group you are representing us somewhere.

 Because yesterday, we were receiving tweets saying we were in Ashesi,
 when I have not seen any message in the mailing list saying we were on
 outreach in Ashesi.

 Felix and Berchie you have been very active in projects. I have read
 that you have more schools on your list and have listed as program leaders
 for the Wikipedia Education Program. So if your partners are going to
 consider this as a 'Wikimedia Ghana thing' please shoot the mailing list an
 email and inform the social media person so we can retweet or repost etc
 and finally list it here

Proactive people are some of my favorite people in Ghana.
Keep it up Justice.

I totally agree with what Sandister said.

Ghana and at least this community is not involved. Especially when those
running the projects are aware of this community.

In that stead, I would also encourage Justice and co to google around a bit
for Wikipedia related events happening in Ghana to ensure this community is
also aware of everything.
