[edit] Central African Republic

I've just noticed that the Central African Republic article talks about elections that are due to be held in March 2005. What happened to them? Did they happen or were they posptponed/cancelled? Thryduulf 13:47, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hello,

I am seeking to enter in contact with editors on the english wikipedia, living in African countries. This is at the same time for Wikimania and to prepare a report on African participation to Wikipedia. If you fit the profile, or know someone who fits the profile, please contact me on my user talk page or by email at anthere9ATyahoo.com

Thanks.

[edit] Rwanda stub templates

I've created two new stubs for Rwanda:

Rwanda stubs ({{Rwanda-stub}})
Rwanda geography stubs ({{Rwanda-geo-stub}})

Use them wisely! :-) TreveX^talk 15:41, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Ivory Coast/Côte d'Ivoire

A highly contentious vote is shaping up over at Talk:Côte d'Ivoire on which form of the country's name is the accepted standard usage; I'd encourage interested editors to drop by and note which usage you prefer, as this vote will (hopefully) establish the article's place for some time. Cheers! --Dvyost 07:43, 14 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] African military history task force

The African military history task force is a new and rapidly growing branch of the military history project. We have an open task list where anyone can drop subjects of interest that could do with some work and a discussion page where we will try to help you with articles/questions concerning conflicts in Africa. Just take a look. Greatings Wandalstouring 01:34, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
