Arguments in favor

  • Support. Based on the number of active contributors the Estonian Wikiversity has been one of the most active projects in Betawikiversity in recent months. We have a small but commited community who is very much interested in establishing an independent Estonian Wikiversity. --Hans Poldoja 16:04, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
Comment This has to be obvious in the people who state they want to contribute to this project on this page. GerardM 16:44, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
  • Support. My current 3+1 (one was compiled by me, but taught by another person) courses running on Wikiversity are all considered successful by participants and I plan to go on. I also agree with Hans - our user base is likely to grow, plus we also have got a suitable research entity to coordinate Wikiversity-based work in the Centre for Educational Technology at Tallinn University.

  • (+) Support. Project active and participants committed. Hillgentleman 14:54, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
