Hello everyone, The next Language Community Meeting is happening soon, on Friday, August 28th at 15:00 UTC! If you would like to join, simply sign up on the wiki page <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Language_and_Product_Localization/Community_meetings> . This is a participant-driven meeting for sharing updates on language-related projects, discussing technical challenges in language wikis, and collaborating on solutions. In the upcoming meeting, we’ll hear from Owobusingye <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Owobusingye> about efforts to develop the Runyankore Wikipedia, a language spoken by over 3 million people in southwestern Uganda whose Wikipedia recently graduated from the Incubator. We’ll also hear from DaSupremo <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:DaSupremo> about the localization of Wikimedia features for Ghanaian language Wikipedias. Got a topic to share? Whether it’s a technical update from your project, a challenge you need help with we’d love to hear from you!
