Hi Oratile I need your help(Kgm2019 (talk) 09:33, 10 Firikgong 2019 (UTC))
Welcome to Wikipedia, Oarabile! I made a template called {{Not Tswana-inline}} which puts all the pages requiring translation into Category:Not Tswana. When you get a chance, could you translate them and remove the template afterwards? --Iketsi 19:52, 3 Ngwanatsele 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for all the articles you have contributed lately! I hope you would be interested in continuing to contribute to this young Wikipedia after the Challenge too. :) Ijon 21:15, 31 Firikgong 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. --Oarabile Mudongo (talk) 14:34, 6 Motsheganong 2012 (UTC)
Hi Oarabile Mudongo, how are you? Mate, I am trying to find an editor/s who can help by translating User:Russavia/Polandball into Setswana. I was wondering if we could make a trade?
If you could translate that article into Setswana for me, I would be happy to upload whatever approximately 50 Botswana and South African aviation photos to Commons from amongst the 200,000 I have permission to upload. I have uploaded a number of photos relating to Botswana aviation to give you a brief idea of what I can upload, and I am keeping a gallery at User:Russavia of photos uploaded.
Would you be interested in such a "trade"? Do let me know, either by responding here, or on my talk page, or by emailing me. Cheers, Russavia (talk) 07:59, 23 Phukwi 2012 (UTC)
P.S. If might also interest you that I am the editor who wrote en:Air Botswana a couple of years ago :) Russavia (talk) 07:59, 23 Phukwi 2012 (UTC)

Hie!!!!! :) Cool!!! its working thanx a lot......Oarabile Mudongo
Hey!!!! Russavia am trying to work on it,Polandball is one of the articles giving me headache eish!!! but it will be fine i assume.The problem is that the terminology used within is quet challenging though the article is kind of related to my study Computer-Science there is something coming up.These language Setswana_Language is full of hard terminology to use so am still analyzing the article and at the same time working on it.
Thank you so much will keep in touch. Cheers!!! ;)
Hi again mate, hope you are well? Mate i wanted to ask if you might be able to help to get a couple of photos from Gaborone if possible? In particular, i am needing a photo of the russian embassy for various articles i am working on. Do you have a camera and might be able to help with that? Cheers Russavia (talk) 05:05, 14 Lwetse 2012 (UTC)
Well i will be taking a tour around the city touring some monuments and some of the designated places such as parliament,Various Embasies and Museums etc we laning to host Wiki Loves Monuments (WML)sometimes next year.I will try to pass by your embassy and go ask for the permission to take some pictures because i assume it is not allowed to take photos in such areas.Actually the reason being that the Ambasador of Russia lives in the same compound where the Embassy is situated hope you get my point.I promiss i will try by all means and get back to you with some better responce.
Thank you.

Hello! Would you be interested in editing wikt:, a dictionary in Setswana? Currently, it only has 94 entries. PiRSquared17 (talk) 16:52, 21 Ngwanatsele 2012 (UTC)
Thank you once again,oh!! infact am the one who created the article well Kasane and ya asane&action=history Toropo ya Kasane are just simillar things reffering to a small town named Kasane so i think its just a mistake i made as i was translating the article.Just go ahead and merge the two article they are simple nothing but refearing to the same thing.I have seen your comment too about the chapter issue will surely get back to you after a short while.Lastly let me let you know that i can confidently tranlsate the dictionary i dnt have any problem with too.
Hi, in reply to this question: I see that you already registered on translatewiki and were given translators rights. Therefore you can now go to [2] and translate the MediaWiki interface there. --MF-Warburg (talk) 14:37, 23 Ngwanatsele 2012 (UTC)

Yes, please. Please make an article in Setswana about en:Mmusi and Others v Ramantele and Another. It can be a small stub. It does not have to be large.
Also, if you want more, I have a list at User:WhisperToMe. All I need are small stubs.

Does "Wkusaxoxoisimile" look like a real Zulu word to you? PiRSquared17 (talk) 21:07, 30 Moranang 2013 (UTC)
Is this the correct translation of "suburb"? What noun class is it? Unfortunately, I cannot find much information on Setswana online. PiRSquared17 (talk) 03:18, 12 Phukwi 2013 (UTC)
Suburb meaning An area on the edge of a large town or city where people who work in the town or city often live:. In Tswana the word "Suburb" refers to Bonno jwa Magasigasi in simple Tswana.Oarabile Mudongo (talk) 07:47, 12 Phukwi 2013 (UTC)

Is this edit correct: [4]? PiRSquared17 (talk) 00:57, 17 Ngwanatsele 2013 (UTC)
Dear Oarabile,
Leina la me ko Anna. :) My name is Anna. :) I am a Community Advocate at the Wiki Foundation in San Francisco.
It's an honor to meet you. :) PiRSquared17 suggested I contact you.
I've been trying to find translators for tn.wikipedia...
You see, the Wiki Foundation's engineers have developed software that will allow people to edit Wikipedia pages without needing to learn wikitext syntax. VisualEditor is already available and in use on some Wikipedia projects. You can try it out on this wiki now before it is deployed. To enable VisualEditor, go to your "Preferences", select "Beta Features", and check the box to enable "VisualEditor". And please let me know about any serious problems you see.
The VisualEditor's User Interface still needs to be translated into Setswana and I understand that you are already an approved translator on translatewiki.net. :)
0% of the user interface has been translated into Setswana (citation: here), and deployment is set for 13 January 2014 (citation: here). The good news is, there's only 139 words and phrases to translate in the user interface! :)
I really really hope you can help! :)
You can message me on my talk page on TN.WP or EN.WP, you can contact me on Facebook, or you can email me at [email protected].
Ke a leboga fela thata! Thank you very much! :)
