Please be bold and help translate this article!  William Morrison (23 August 1855 – 29 August 1927) was a Scottish chemist. His background in chemistry piqued his interest in improving storage batteries. He concentrated on how to produce the most available energy for a unit of weight for efficiency in the working of an individual battery cell. Eventually, he developed storage batteries far more powerful than what had then been available. To demonstrate his batteries, Morrison installed 24 of them on a common horse-drawn carriage and attached an electric motor to the rear axle to be powered by them. Through various innovations, he developed the controls for the power used and the vehicle's steering so that the driver had complete control. Morrison invented the first practical self-powered four-wheeled electric carriage in the United States. His electric vehicle was the first to be driven in Chicago and in his hometown of Des Moines, Iowa. This electric horseless buggy of the late 19th century helped pave the way for the hybrid electric automobile of the 21st century.

Please be bold and help translate this article!  The composition of Madagascar's wildlife reflects the fact that the island has been isolated for about 88 million years. The prehistoric breakup of the supercontinent Gondwana separated the Madagascar-Antarctica-India landmass from the Africa-South America landmass around 135 million years ago. Madagascar later split from India about 88 million years ago, allowing plants and animals on the island to evolve in relative isolation. As a result of the island's long isolation from neighboring continents, Madagascar is home to an abundance of plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth. Approximately 90 percent of all plant and animal species found in Madagascar are endemic, including the lemurs (a type of strepsirrhine primate), the carnivorous fossa and many birds. This distinctive ecology has led some ecologists to refer to Madagascar as the "eighth continent", and the island has been classified by Conservation International as a biodiversity hotspot. As recent as 2021, the "smallest reptile on earth" was also found in Madagascar, known as the Brookesia nana, or nano-chameleon.

Please be bold and help translate this article! _during_the_1963_Lobster_War.jpg) The Lobster War (also known as the Lobster Operation; Portuguese: Guerra da Lagosta; French: Conflit de la langouste) was a dispute over spiny lobsters which occurred from 1961 to 1963 between Brazil and France. The Brazilian government refused to allow French fishing vessels to catch spiny lobsters 100 miles (160 km) off the Brazilian northeast coast, arguing that lobsters "crawl along the continental shelf", while the French maintained that "lobsters swim" and that, therefore, they might be caught by any fishing vessel from any country. The dispute was resolved unilaterally by Brazil, which extended its territorial waters to a 200-nautical-mile (370 km; 230 mi) zone, taking in the disputed lobsters' bed.

Please be bold and help translate this article! Mary Nzimiro, birthname Mary Nwametu Onumonu, MBE (1898–1993) was a pioneering Nigerian businesswoman, politician and women's activist. In 1948, she was appointed principal representative of the United Africa Company (UAC) for Eastern Nigeria, while maintaining textile and cosmetics retail outlets of her own in Port Harcourt, Aba and Owerri. By the early 1950s, she was among the richest individuals in West Africa, becoming a resident of the exclusive Bernard Carr Street in Port Harcourt. On the political front, she was a member of the influential National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons, becoming a member of its executive committee in 1957 and vice-president of the NCNC Estern Women's Association in 1962. During the Nigerian Civil War (1967–1970), she organized Igbo women in support of the Biafrans.

Closure of Akan Wikipedia[edit]
Hello! In the preparation for the (very likely to be approved) closure of Akan Wikipedia, I had a look at the wiki and found quite a lot of spam pages I deleted. I also noticed that you have already imported pages from there to the Twi Wikipedia, and have deleted two or three such articles from Akan Wikipedia already, as they are now on the Twi wiki. I was wondering how to best prepare for the closure. Do you have a list of articles that have already been transferred and can be deleted from Akan? I could then delete these pages when the closure is approved, and we can see what pages remain, and whether they need to be transferred as well. --MF-W 18:37, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hello -MF-W. Thank you for your assistance. I have already transferred most, if not all, of the pertinent articles from the Akan Wikipedia to the Twi Wikipedia, and I have been encouraging local editors to contribute to and create articles for the Twi Wikipedia. Although I don't have a list of the articles that have already been transferred, I believe we can use the xtools to locate them. Thank you -- Robertjamal12 ~🔔 19:24, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
- Alright! Let us continue on April 1 then. --MF-W 19:53, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
- I have listed all current mainspace pages from akwiki here: tw:User:MF-Warburg, so we can easily see which ones exist on twwiki and which ones don't. Now we have e.g. [1], which you imported to [2]. There have been some template changes afterwards on akwiki, but nothing in the content. Would it be correct to assume that such pages can be deleted on akwiki without problem? --MF-W 13:20, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hello MF-W. Thank you once again for your support. Yes, such pages can be deleted on akwiki without problem. Thank you — Robertjamal12 ~🔔 13:41, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hello again. I am still busy with deleting duplicates. However, here is now a list of akwiki pages that don't exist on twwiki. Would you be willing to review the list and import those pages that can be "used" into twwiki yourself? When you are finished, I would then delete all those pages on akwiki, including ones you maybe didn't import because they were of low quality. Alternatively, I can also import all of those 194 pages into twwiki, and you (or other community members) could take it from there. --MF-W 21:36, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, MF-W, Yes, please import all of those 194 pages into twwiki, the community will work on them. Thank you -- Robertjamal12 ~🔔 07:38, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
- That's done. Have fun editing! --MF-W 15:06, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
