== [Request for Interview] Future of Language Incubation in Wikimedia ==
Hi @[[Òsikwaan̄:Katelem|Katelem]],
I would like to invite you to a brief 60-minute online interview about your experience with contributing to a new Wikimedia in your language. Your insights will help us improve the process for emerging language communities.
Please let me know if you're available for a Google Meet call during the upcoming week between '''25th to 30th November 2024'''. I am available at '''sgill@wikimedia.org'''.
Thanks

:Thanks for the reminder. I saw your email; I've replied to it. I will be glad to participate in the interview. Tuesday 26th November is ok for me. [[Òsikwaan̄:Katelem|Katelem]] ([[Ukpatu òsikwaan̄:Katelem|ukpatu]]) 13:03, 23 Nọvemba 2024 (WAT)

== Invitation to connect with fellow contributors from language onboarding experiment ==
Hello,
Hope this message finds you well! I would like to invite you to a community conversation to connect with fellow contributors from pilot wikis (Southern Ndebele, Tai Nüa, Iban, Obolo, Pannonian Rusyn) that graduated through a [https://diff.wikimedia.org/2024/10/31/wikipedia-goes-live-for-five-languages-through-the-future-of-language-incubation-initiative/ Language Onboarding Experiment] last year. In this conversation, we plan to facilitate sharing learnings, discussing technical needs post-graduation, and collaborating on solving challenges faced by the pilot wikis.
We spoke with a few contributors from these wikis back in December, and their valuable input on contributions has given us some perspectives on what to investigate next. A report will soon be published on those learnings. We hope that this meeting will not only be a great opportunity for us to come together and learn from each other but also allow us to use your valuable input to shape our plans for the coming year!
If you can attend the call, please sign up here, and I will share more details later:

== Invitation to try the Starter Kit tool and share your feedback ==
Hello @[[Òsikwaan̄:Katelem|Katelem]],
As one of the editors who set up the Obolo Wikipedia, the [[mw:Language_Onboarding_and_Development|Language Onboarding and Development]] initiative invites you to use the Starter Kit to configure and customize Obolo Wikipedia homepage.
Main page customization is one of the first features of the starter kit which will help you improve your main page's layout and mobile responsiveness, and structure your content with ease using pre-built templates. It will also help us evaluate how well it can improve the onboarding experience of administrators on your Wikipedia, so we can further use the learnings to improve the experience for new wikis graduating from the incubator. Visit [[mw:Language_Onboarding_and_Development/Starter_kit|this page]] to learn more about the Starter kit.
'''Here's how to get started:'''
* Access the Starter Kit here: https://starterkit.toolforge.org/
* Use the tool as illustrated in the screen record below to customize your main page.
[[Failu:Starter_kit_main_page_customization_feature_demo.webm|699x699px|Starter kit main page customization feature demo]]
* When you are done, share your feedback on [[mw:Talk:Language_Onboarding_and_Development/Starter_kit|this page]] on the following:
** The time it took to configure and customize your Wikipedia initially, and the time it took now with the Kit.
** The things you find most useful while configuring it.
** Tell us anything important to your language Wikipedia or your community's goals that you felt the configured main page templates were able to or unable to capture.
** The step in the configuration process where you felt stuck, confused, or unsure what to do next.
The configurations can be reverted like an edit from the “view history”, so don't be afraid to try it several times.
We would appreciate it if you could submit your feedback by the 11th of May 2026 so we can start adding more features based on it. If you have any questions or need assistance, let me know.
Thank you so much for your contributions to your Wikipedia and for helping us shape this tool for new Wikipedias. We will keep you updated on any additional things added to the starter kit in the future.
Best regards, [[Òsikwaan̄:UOzurumba (WMF)|UOzurumba (WMF)]] ([[Ukpatu òsikwaan̄:UOzurumba (WMF)|ukpatu]]) 00:06, 28 Epuren 2026 (WAT)
