South African Wikimedia Chapter
Hi there LouriePieterse. The idea of setting up a local Wikimedia chapter has been discussed by South African Wikipedians (and those associated with other Wikimedia projects) for some time now, and we want to help turn this dream into a reality. There are currently over 25 chapters established around the world, and several more planned and being discussed, but so far, none in Africa. A South African chapter, should it become a reality, would be a continental first. Another local Wikipedian who you may know, Greenman, is currently setting up a ZA mailing list and will be putting up a note about the Chapter on Meta, and we'll let you know as soon as this has been done. In the meantime you can check out my talk page and also feel free to email me directly :). Thanks and have a great Wold Cup opening day, Kaydee 68 (talk) 06:50, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
Interview request: The newbie experience, revert communication and $10 to the WMF
As I'm concluding the study related to the NICE user script, I'd like to ask you some questions about your experiences with and ideas about Wikipedia. The questions will be related to how you interact with new editors and the way you communicate when reverting. The chat should take about 45 minutes to an hour and can happen over phone, voip(skype) or instant messenger(gtalk, ICQ, AIM, etc.). As thanks for your time, I'll donate $10 (US) to the Wikimedia foundation at the completion of the interview. If you are interested or need more information, please let me know. --EpochFail(talk|work) 20:04, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

South African Wikimedia Chapter update and mailing list
Hi there. Local Wikipedians have set up a mailing list where we will be discussing the formation of a local Wikimedia Chapter in South Africa. Please join the mailing list at this url https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaza. There is also a page set up on Meta where you can add your name if you're interested to take this idea forward. Check out http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_South_Africa.
