Today, I will be privileged to train students of the Mass Communication department of #FountainUniverity to edit Yorùbá Wikipedia. I look forward to sharing my skill and experience with them.

Today, we trained more than 50 students and academic staff members of Lagos State University (@LASUOfficial). The training was attended by the Dean, Faculty of Arts, Prof. Taiwo Salisu. Others present include Prof. Harrison Adeniyi, Prof. Taiwo Olunlade, and Prof. Ahmed Adesanya.

A beautiful throwback to last year February when YWUG @Wikimediayo had her first "recruit readers as writers" project. I love how the group is consistent and active in training people to contribute to free knowledge.

Bàbá don cast them😂

I'm excited to be a part of this launching, by the YWUG @Wikimediayo. I'm honestly proud of this project and I'd love to thank the group for their efforts in the promotion and propagation of Yoruba culture, language and heritage. @YorubaNationCH @Yoruba_Digital @TheYorubaTimes

@ThesaaJay Very true boss. God bless you for this🙏

We are excited to inform the global community that we will be launching our Yoruba oral traditions on Saturday, February 10, 2024, and this will be followed by a press conference. The event would take place at the La Regial Airport Hotel, Alimosho, Lagos State. Join us.

This is an outstanding initiative. A very big "thank you" to @WikimediaNG. Being one of the nominees, I wish myself and other nominees the very best, as the big day is finally upon us.

In an exciting development, the Yoruba Wikimedians User Group, in collaboration with the International Centre for Yoruba Arts and Culture, has taken significant steps to address a pressing issue: the lack of standardization in Yoruba Orthography. diff.wikimedia.org/2024/01/15/enh…
