This project is a great initiative in Hausa Wiktionary. Languages have the same issues including English, Arabic, Spanish, Marghi, Fulfulde, Kanuri e.t.c we need to work for it to see how we can make changes to be understood by the non native speakers of Hausa Language i.e the learners. I   Strong support this project.

This proposal addresses a critical need within the Hausa Wiktionary by focusing on the harmonization of homographs. Homographs, words that share the same spelling but have different meanings, pose a challenge for learners and contributors of the language. By developing a systematic approach to disambiguating homographs and providing clear definitions and examples, this project will greatly enhance the usability and accuracy of the Hausa Wiktionary. I   Strong support it. --A Sulaiman Z (talk) 21:52, 28 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

"Homograph Harmony in Hausa Wiktionary" proposal is well-structured with a clear focus on addressing challenges related to homographs in the Hausa Wiktionary. It has engaged the community and assembled a team with relevant expertise. The proposed activities, budget, and metrics are reasonable and aligned with Wikimedia's goals. However, the ultimate success of the project will depend on the effective execution of the planned activities. --—Gwanki📧 20:02, 2 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

This proposal seeks to address the challenge of homograph words with multiple meanings and pronunciations in the Hausa Wiktionary. The project, led by a team of experienced Wikimedians, plans to conduct both offline and online training sessions and organize a writing contest to empower editors. The post-activity discussion group will provide ongoing support. This project aligns with the WikiForHumanRights campaign and aims to enhance the quality of information in the Hausa language. It has received support from the community and co-founder, demonstrating its potential impact on the Wikimedia community.
