00:00:00,087 --> 00:00:01,170
JIMMY WALES: Hi everybody.

3
00:00:01,170 --> 00:00:05,280
I'm here with Emily,
who was the winner

4
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:09,070
of the Wikimedian of the Year
last year, along with Rosie.

5
00:00:09,070 --> 00:00:12,180
And she unfortunately couldn't
be in Italy with us last year,

6
00:00:12,180 --> 00:00:16,059
so I brought her to help me
with something really fun.

7
00:00:16,059 --> 00:00:17,970
This year's winner
also has not been

8
00:00:17,970 --> 00:00:22,032
able to make it to Wikimania
due to a visa issue.

9
00:00:22,032 --> 00:00:23,490
So we're going to
call Felix up, he

10
00:00:23,490 --> 00:00:27,060
has no idea we're calling
him up on video chat,

11
00:00:27,060 --> 00:00:28,730
and I'm gonna let
him know that he's

12
00:00:28,730 --> 00:00:31,126
the Wikipedian of the Year.

13
00:00:31,126 --> 00:00:33,450
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD: All right.

14
00:00:33,450 --> 00:00:35,159
JIMMY WALES: Hi Felix.

15
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:35,950
Hi, it's Jim Wales.

16
00:00:35,950 --> 00:00:37,030
FELIX NARTEY: Hi.

17
00:00:37,030 --> 00:00:37,545
JIMMY WALES: And Emily.

18
00:00:37,545 --> 00:00:38,490
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD: Emily, hi.

19
00:00:38,490 --> 00:00:39,865
JIMMY WALES: As
you probably know

20
00:00:39,865 --> 00:00:44,247
Emily won the Wikimedian of
the Year Award last year,

21
00:00:44,247 --> 00:00:46,080
but she wasn't able to
be at the conference.

22
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,080
So I've asked her
to help me announce

23
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,460
the Wikimedian of
the Year this year,

24
00:00:51,460 --> 00:00:55,580
which is Felix Nartey of Ghana.

25
00:00:55,580 --> 00:00:57,170
FELIX NARTEY: What?

26
00:00:57,170 --> 00:00:58,392
Oh my God.

27
00:00:58,392 --> 00:00:59,600
JIMMY WALES: Congratulations.

28
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,696
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD:
Congratulations

29
00:01:01,696 --> 00:01:03,590
FELIX NARTEY: Thank you.

30
00:01:03,590 --> 00:01:06,930
JIMMY WALES: I really love
the work you've been doing.

31
00:01:06,930 --> 00:01:10,280
The wiki conferences, and really
building up the community there

32
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:11,090
locally.

33
00:01:11,090 --> 00:01:12,506
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD:
You're amazing.

34
00:01:12,506 --> 00:01:14,270
JIMMY WALES: It's
really fantastic.

35
00:01:14,270 --> 00:01:14,960
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD:
Congratulations.

36
00:01:14,960 --> 00:01:16,293
FELIX NARTEY: Thank you so much.

37
00:01:16,293 --> 00:01:17,435
Thank you so much.

38
00:01:17,435 --> 00:01:19,415
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD: We
wish you could be here.

39
00:01:19,415 --> 00:01:24,110
JIMMY WALES: Yeah, so next year
you'll be in Cape Town, I hope.

40
00:01:24,110 --> 00:01:26,060
And then you and I,
we'll call the next one.

41
00:01:26,060 --> 00:01:28,098
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD: Yeah.

42
00:01:28,098 --> 00:01:29,652
Congratulations.

43
00:01:29,652 --> 00:01:32,360
FELIX NARTEY: Thank you so much
my dears, thank you so much.

44
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:33,860
EMILY TEMPLE-WOOD:
And enjoy, you'll

45
00:01:33,860 --> 00:01:35,990
have a Wikipedia article about
you by the end of the night

46
00:01:35,990 --> 00:01:36,490
I'm sure.

47
00:01:36,490 --> 00:01:38,040
[LAUGHTER]

48
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,414
