About Wikiversity

Hello. Sorry to write in English, but I only know English and French :)

You have expressed interest in the Wikiversity project, so here is some news about the project. English and German language Wikiversities are now open. Wikiversity Beta is a global platform aiming at coordinating Wikiversity projects in several languages. This multilingual coordination intends to deal with Wikiversity's mission and general guidelines of the project's scope (for example, about original research). Wikiversity Beta is also a place where Wikiversity projects which don't have a subdomain yet can develop. If you intend to open or join a future Wikiversity project, you are encouraged to take part in discussions on Beta, since those discussions are going to concern all Wikiversity projects.

You will find more information in Wikiversity Beta FAQ. You can also take a look at the reports to get some news from Wikiversity projects in all languages. Feel free to ask your questions at Wikiversity:Babel, or ask me.

I hope you will enjoy the Wikiversity experience :)

Converting Scripts

Hello, I saw your message about automatic scripts, where could this technology used in the wikipedia specially in MZN WP ? since it could be written in latin and perso - arabic scriptures, even i saw some scriptures in cyrillic, please guide me, --Ali 17:44, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi. Excuse me for not aswering for long time (I'm not very active on meta). I do not know details about automatic script conversion, but I know it is used on Chinese, Serb and Kazakh Wikipedias. The last can be particulary intersting for you, since in changes between cyrillic, latin and arabic script. I advice you to ask information in the village pump of Kazakh wiki. Best regards, V.
