| Realistic | Little impact has been maid on this consistent chapter goal. This is both a very difficult task and one we have no prior metrics to gauge possible impact on. From previous experience (2012) we know that this is a very difficult task. We have decided to engage in a new stategy of finding and recruiting volunteer African language champions. Known public personalities with a passion for African languages to publicly encourage others to edit.
