Tunisia's image on wikipedia
LISTEN UP EVERYONE!
- Do you care about the image of Tunisia in the world?
- Do you LOVE Tunisia ( okay, now I am getting romantic...seriously) ?
- Do you have an idea who Abulkacem El Chebbi was ( birth-death-important works is better than none)?
- Can you write a simple biography of Ali ben Ayyed or Hedi Jouini?
- THEN PLEASE GO TO WIKIPEDIA AND EDIT AN ARTICLE, IT IS SIMPLE AND EASY!
The fact is ,anyone can edit on wikipedia ( modify articles or write new ones), if you speak Arabic, french or English then go a head, no one can speak of Tunisia better than a Tunisian, stop by wikipedia time to time and edit about your hometown, a Tunisian personality or anything Tunisian!
I find it a little ironic that a BelgecemBougenna biography exists (who is he by the way?) while there is no reference to Ali Riahi...don't you?![]()
If YOU don't care about Tunisia, then no one else will!! (isn't that uncle Sam?)
Anyhow, please, stop by Wikipedia time to time, and make a difference by contributing to Tunisian articles.
Okay, the speech is over (for now), back to me! I am getting on the road to my dorm room in a few hours, and I didn't bother to sleep (it is 2:00 am) , I guess I am too excited about meeting the people I will share my dorm room with, for the rest of the year.
I met with a friend this afternoon who gave me a book titled "I married a communist" by Philip Roth as a sort of good bye gift, not that she is generous or anything, but she was so shocked by the fact that I didn't know who Philip Roth was ( "OMG? What? You don't know P.Roth, nooooo, I can't believe it! You must be kidding me, are you sure? You poor thing) that she decided it was necessary to pass me the book, don't worry, I made my point by reminding her that she had no idea who Mahfouz was (ended up in a cat fight).
Don't forget to check out wikipedia: Search for your hometown article, edit it if needed, go to music of Tunisia and check out what can be done (wink to our musician: Emina).
Thank you all and be well!
