Welcome, Wayne! Nikki told me about you. The two of us (Nikki and I) also hang out on [[IRC]] - my nick is mchua, and I am often around #olpc-content.


Nikki mentioned you were interested in doing Mandarin translation - as she suggested, talk to [[User:Xavi|Xavi]] and also see the [[Translating/HowTo]] page.
Some possible pages of interest:

A small translation project that would be a good place to start is the [[Curriculum Jam Taipei]] page - the Jam is next week, so translation work would be starting now and tapering off in 2 weeks, after updates from the Jam have died down. Let me know if you're interested.

A few more cool things to look at:

Welcome, Wayne!

Welcome to the One Laptop per Child wiki. Please make yourself at home; read through the Table of Contents and FAQ, and take a look around. If you need a general wiki-tutorial, Wikieducator has some excellent ones.

Things to check out:

I'd suggest that you talk to Xavi; he's the most active translator that I know. You should also ping Mel; she is definitely excited about having Chinese translators. The Simplified Chinese translator listed on the main page is Scott Zhu. And, of course, feel free to hit my talk page.--Nikki 18:20, 23 July 2007 (EDT)

Hi there!

Welcome!

Welcome, Wayne! Nikki told me about you. The two of us (Nikki and I) also hang out on IRC - my nick is mchua, and I am often around #olpc-content.

Nikki mentioned you were interested in doing Mandarin translation - as she suggested, talk to Xavi and also see the Translating/HowTo page.

A small translation project that would be a good place to start is the Curriculum Jam Taipei page - the Jam is next week, so translation work would be starting now and tapering off in 2 weeks, after updates from the Jam have died down. Let me know if you're interested.

A few more cool things to look at:

Check your preferences and be sure you verify your email address and turn on email notification if you'd like it -- you can find out when your talk page, or any page on your watchlist, is modified. You may want to upload a photo or information about yourself to your userpage (see Lauren's and Xavi's pages for good examples).

If you have a particular interest or project in mind, go ahead and start it! Feel free to leave me a note on my talk page if you have further questions, need help finding your way around, have a cool idea for a project, or just want to chat. You can also call, text, or email me anytime; contact information is on my user page.

Glad to have you here!

-Mel
