Ross (and Liz),

Thanks for your email. See you tomorrow at Stanford Medicine if you're there; I met Jonathan Chen at another Grand Rounds not long ago - http://medicinecalendars.stanford.edu/event/medicine-grand-rounds-understanding-healthcare-reform-pre-aca-to-aca-to/?instance_id=20184.

Looks like Mountain View Scottish Country Dancing begins on Wednesdays on Sept 6 - http://www.mtview-rscds.org/.

And the RSCDS-SF has a fairly comprehensive listing of dances+ in the SF Bay Area - http://www.rscds-sf.org/classes/.

Red Thistle SCD in Palo Alto, which I may have mentioned to you, appears to be for advanced dancers.

Startup World University and School is just beginning to matriculate/enroll students, and presently this is with an email from me and for an online CC MIT OCW-centric Bachelor's degree in English. If you know of someone who's interested, please invite them to email me at ___@worlduniversityandschool.org ; the (new) wiki is open for teaching and learning, and soon in many languages.

(WUaS is interested even in planning for very large numbers of students in all ~200 countries' official languages - and even all 7 billion+ people for Blockchain/bitcoin +. Here's an explanation of Blockchain's potential which I recently found helpful re health care data: "Why
Blockchain is a Game Changer for the Health Industry" -
https://twitter.com/GerdMoeBehrens/status/899024693050695680 (posted here recently - https://twitter.com/WorldUnivAndSch) - and for WUaS's "You at WUaS" and online teaching "Hospitals" and "Clinical Research" and again planning for all 7 billion+ people on the planet database-wise.

Hope to see you tomorrow morning if you're at Medical Grand Rounds.

All the best,
Scott

Ross, thank you as well.

Alas, for Scottish country dancing!

I'm teaching an open course on the Information Age on Tuesdays at 9 am in a group video Hangout beginning Tuesdays, September 26th - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/InfoTechNetworkSocGlobalUniv.html - if you might be interested, and otherwise there are literally potentially unlimited opportunities on the wiki side -
wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org - for both teaching and learning, with much MIT OpenCourseWare, for example. What are you interested in learning?

See you soon!

Best wishes,
Scott

Hi Luca,

Thanks for your clear feedback. I hope this finds you well as well. I'm learning about this Miraheze Mediawiki software, and so am grateful for your replies.

By a) automatically or b) for myself, I meant by a) machine translation or b) by my own translation. Am I correct in assuming that Miraheze Mediawiki doesn't (yet) have machine translation, since I don't see a German translation, nor the option to machine translate this - neither on the translated "Mission" page you shared

https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Mission&language=de&action=page&filter=

nor in the new "Frettinga" test page I created -

https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Frettinga&language=de&action=page&filter=

I only see the option to type in my own translation. (I thought I might see the beginnings of a German translation, but also wonder whether that will further emerge when Wikidata-lexeme - http://wikidata-lexeme.wmflabs.org/index.php/Main_Page in Wikidata/Wiktionary emerges).

(I made the new Frettinga test page here https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Nation_States ... https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Frettinga, and added just "de" to the priority languages, in reply to your question).

So thanks to you, here is the beginning of a translated Frettinga test page - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Translate&group=page-Frettinga&language=de&action=page&filter=.

I'll begin to seek Chinese and Spanish translators for WUaS degree programs in those languages - and soon to begin to add MIT OCW courses to various WUaS Subject pages, when they are newly in Miraheze.

(And WUaS seeks eventually to generate an universal translator - and probably partly with Lexeme-Wikidata, since WUaS donated itself to Wikidata in Oct 2015, and even for academic publishing to paper+ (so book publication) - so how best to focus / help to create this in its emergence, Luca? Phabricator?)

I'll begin now to follow up on some of my other recent questions, and re Phabricator, especially for Citoid, and Templates for "Languages" as wiki schools in those languages, and Templates for "Nation States" as universities in their official/main languages.

How please would you suggest creating a list of languages on the left like Spanish here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nontheist_Quakers - and with Spanish, but where the priority languages also include German, and the MIT OCW languages - Chinese, Spanish, Korean, Portuguese, Turkish, Persian (which are MIT OCW languages - https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/translated-courses/) - and Romanian, French, Russian, Arabic, (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_languages_of_the_United_Nations), Hindi, Tamil, Scots Gaelic, Vietnamese, Japanese and Italian (and the option to easily add other languages, like Native American languages, for example) - also over on the left?

Thank you, Luca!

Best regards, Scott
