Opportunity

I've added a template to the bottom of the article which now links to other nearby schools that have wiki pages. Hopefully this article will be a good model for them :) One suggestion: Please look at the version of this article in IsiXhosa as its still in English. Good luck.

SA Schools: Do you need a video to make a school article? You can get impreesive hits with just text and a few pics

So this article has received a lot of attention after the video was made and it was shown to the media and to 2,000 people at Wikimania. And the article looks great. The number of people who have seen the page is here. The 120 person peak is on the day it was shown at Wikimania raising peoples awareness of the great Wikipedia Zero project. Other schools may be disheartened as they don't have these connections. Schools like Trafalgar High School, Harold Cressy High School and Alexander Sinton Secondary School. These schools now have improved articles and there are no videos and the pictures are quite rare, but the statistics for Trafagar School are three times the exposure for this article this month. The people at Wikimedia SA and SF can give you help with this. All the best Victuallers (talk) 14:41, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
