We have a Kreyòl language translatathon in the works. Focus is unclear at
this point and will depend a lot on our Haitian Creolist partners and their
needs.

[Brill Lyle]

This is a tool that will be really useful to the AfroCROWD initiative that
Alice Backer leads (cc'd, as well as Pharos) -- especially for the Haitian
Creole community.

I'm hoping AfroCROWD and WM NYC can support an intensive translatathon
focusing on Wikidata, and really take advantage of this great resource.

Wonderful work!
