Maritz Rebellion

I saw that you had contributed to the talk page of the Boer War. Last week I knocked together an article on Deneys Reitz because he is used as a "Further reading" on the Spion Kop page. This lead me to write an article on the Maritz Rebellion. I would appreciate it if you have time to look the two articles over for NPOV and accuracy etc. I know something about Reitz because I bought a copy of his book some years ago, but I did not know anything about the Boer Revolt until just before I wrote the article.

Battle of Isandlwana

Great pics! Commons! Why don't you add a link to your af:User:Renier Maritz page from this user page, and make a picture gallery, so we can pick through them ? Wizzy…☎ 08:13, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi RAM!

Thank you very much for your pictures of trenches in South Africa. May I use the picture of the loopgrawe from Magersfontein for publishing in a Swedish newspaper? To whom should I contribute?

Best regards

Tomas —Preceding

You are welcome to use the images. Attribute to Renier Maritz.

Call for Wikipedians in Residence in Africa

Hello,

I hope you are well and thriving!! WikiAfrica has just put out a call for two Wikipedians in Residence. One in Cape Town at WikiAfrica, at the Africa Centre; and the other for WikiAfrica Cameroon in Douala, at doual’art. If you are interested, please contact either Marilyn [marilyn.doualabelldoualart.org] for the WikiAfrica Cameroon call or Isla [islahfafricacentre.net] for the WikiAfrica position in Cape Town.

If you are not interested in applying, I would be very grateful if you could spread this call far and wide among your networks to ensure that both projects get excellent candidates. Here is the link for the information page: http://www.wikiafrica.net/two-wikipedians-in-residence-for-africa/

Best regards, Islahaddow
