Endorsement from Gwanki 📩

This project creates a community guide to Hausa language variations, which are currently missing from online resources. This will help improve Wikipedia and other Wikimedia sites, educate people, and support the Hausa-speaking community. This team of experts will make sure the guide is accurate and widely available. -- Gwanki 📩 04:19, 24 February 2025 (UTC)
