[TBG] Education/Wiki/Fun

Day 1,410, 01:20 Published in Belgium Norway by Mikhail Alexander


Hello Belgium!
The article before you will detail my plans for if I'm elected as President, today's topic is Education/Wiki/Fun.

Education
Education at the moment in Belgium is lacking funding and staff to run it. I'm currently Minister of Education and I know that Belgium needs more articles out, more messages sent to new citizens and giving them the choice of military unit to go too. The BTA has been doing a fantastic job and I strongly encourage citizens to join it who are fairly new to the game and eventually move onto the BAF.

I propose that the Belgian library continue to be updated by our great, Adrien de Gerlache and to be also updated by the Education and Wiki Departments. I'd also like to get important wiki pages translated into French, Dutch and German and for those links to be put on a page somewhere where all newer citizens can learn information if they need too. I'll also be helping with this project on top of my other work.

Wiki
I currently don't have a Wiki Minister like many candidates because I'm the main wiki expert according to some people so I'll try to be my own Wiki Minister during the duration of my term unless I'm able to find someone else. I plan to keep all basic Belgian pages updated main page, region pages, etc. All congress, party, MPP and presidential lists will be kept up to date to ensure that citizens can check that the country is up to date.

I'll also be working with other wiki members about templates that can be added to the page that will be updated by the Application Programming Interface (API) to help most wiki editor take the strain of updating so much at a time. I'll also be making sure that the Wiki and Education departments will be working close together to ensure that all new and experienced citizens can find information about the game easily.

Fun
I've appointed a very well-known character as our Minister of Fun whom you won't find out about until tomorrow. I'm sure he will be more then capable of entertaining the government, congress and citizen population with funny jokes, comics and videos.

If you ever have any questions about my cabinet, my manifesto or myself personally. Please don't hesitate by send me a message. All messages will be answered and I hope to answer all puzzling questions for you the best way I can.

Thank you,

Minister of Home Affairs, Education and Wiki
Party President of Res Belgica
Belgian Presidential Candidate - October 2011
