Hello Cornelius, I attended once Wikimania in 2011, when I got a lot of ideas and information about this wonderful project (Wikimedia). Since that, minority languages have been on mi mind, because I belong to Aymara nation in The Andes of South America.
I wonder, how mimority languages projects have been going on or what is the team concerned about them. I really want to do many things related to languages like Aymara, Quechua, Uru, and others in Bolivia. We have been starting some conversations with Wikimedia Bolivia. Greetings from El Alto-Bolivia.
