Explain your plan

Tell us about how you contribute currently, and how you would contribute if WMF were to gift a used laptop to you.

Since 2008, as Zenman, I have been editing Wikipedia, mainly in French and in Kiswahili as well as their sister projects such as Commons or wikidata. Alongside with my volunteering editing, I was deeply involved in the creation and the growth of the local User Group, Wikimedia Community User Group of Côte d’Ivoire (WCUG-CI). From its official affiliation in 2014 until today various roles were assigned to me, either in the edition domain as coach or in the support of WCUG-CI management, as chairman of several general assemblies.

With this laptop, I intend to keep working following the roles that I mentioned above: as active editor and devoted coach in my community.

Impact

Thank you so much for choosing me to receive the computer donation. Now, the donation can be reallocated to someone else since for personal reasons I am leaving the Wikipedia edition.

Thanks again.
