=The WikiFundi Software=

What is it

The WikiFundi is a software that provides off-line editing environment that mimics the Wikipedia environment. WikiFundi allows for training and contribution when technology, access and electricity outages fail or are not available at all. It enables individuals, groups and communities to learn how to edit Wikipedia, and to work on articles collaboratively. Once completed and connected to the internet, these articles can be uploaded to Wikipedia.

Who did it

The software was designed to support the WikiAfrica movement and Wikimedia volunteers across Africa by Florence Devouard and Isla Haddow-Flood, in collaboration with Wikimedia CH. It is implemented by Emmanuel Engelhart (Kelson), Anthere and other community members. The development of the software is supported by the Orange Foundation. The WikiFundi Software and its documentation is licenced under CC-BY-SA 4.0.

Motivation for WikiFundi as the project name: 

Wiki - self explanatory... Fundi - noun (S. African) An expert in a particular area, Perhaps originally Zimbabwean English, from Nguni umfundi 'learner' : expert, authority, specialist, professional, master, pro (informal), ace (informal), genius, guru, pundit, buff (informal), maestro, virtuoso, boffin (Brit. informal), hotshot (informal), past master, dab hand (Brit. informal), maven (U.S.)

School children in southern Africa refer to each other as being a “fundi” - as in “can you help me with my homework, you’re such a maths fundi”. Wikipedia is associated with being clever, it imparts knowledge. The use of the term Fundi is a play on words - Wiki Fundi teaches you a skill, and it also gives you access to knowledge. It is a clever programme that teaches you how to teach others by writing articles about things that you are passionate about. The software will be called WikiFundi - as it makes those who engage with the software into experts at editing Wikipedia, and ultimately experts in their subject by contributing to Wikipedia.
