Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Monthly skill share in London

Hey John (and everyone else), I'd love to see WikiProject AIDS get a bit more love. I've been putting together a to-do list with source suggestions. Fancy a chat over coffee sometime to see what and when might be good? Or is that a bit too much editathon shaped for what you're looking for?

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd put their name in Bengali into the infobox at all, personally. But `other_names` certainly *feels* more appropriate. On Mon, 31 Jul 2017 at 10:35 Andy Mabbett wrote: > On 31 July 2017 at 10:24, Gordon Joly wrote: > > >
