We are 7,000,000 catalan speakers and we need a free learning site. We need Wikiversity in Catalan. Every time that gouvernement changes, its politicians change our learning books and our classes and we do not want to pay every time they want us to do. We need a free learning web.

[edit] Arguments in favour

  • Davidpar 16:35, 17 October 2009 (UTC) In favour!

[edit] Arguments against

  • No volunteers. First help at wiktionary, wikinews, wikiquote, wikibooks and wikisource (wikipedia has a numerous team). Meanwhile, incubator. -Aleator (talk) 21:23, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • --Ilaria - scrivimi 19:12, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
  • I'm a sysop of ca-wikibooks and I think the same of Aleator. We need help in other projects before create the wikiversity. --Xavier D. (talk!) 17:04, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
  • I agree with the opinions and comments expressed above. --Góngora (TES) 18:45, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
  • In Figueres meeting the strategy about several themes was discussed deeply. This among others. It seems better to focus efforts in existing projects. We are attracting new contributors to wikibooks and we can host there the learning materials. Once we have enought material we can open wikiversisy offering an added value since the begining and then we could take advantage from several situations in the catalan educational system.--Gomà 21:44, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
