Dear Sadik, This is great news. I wonder if we can see any examples of Wikifunctions working at Dagbani Wikipedia yet, as the first week is always interesting.

Dear all, On behalf of the Dagbani Wikimedians user group<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Dagbani_Wikimedians_User_Group>, I am very excited to share some great news with you. The Wikimedia foundations's newest project, Wikifunctions<https://www.wikifunctions.org/>, is finally coming to the Dagbani Wikipedia. On September 13, 2024, the Dagbani Wikipedia was selected as the first Wikipedia for Wikifunctions integration<https://www.wikifunctions.org/wiki/Wikifunctions:Status_updates/2024-09-13>. Starting tomorrow, Tuesday, April 15, D<https://dag.wikipedia.org/>agbani Wikipedia<https://dag.wikipedia.org/> editors will be able to call and integrate functions directly into Dagbani Wikipedia articles. This new capability will help volunteers perform tasks such as adding up numbers, converting distances, calculating time differences, or even transforming words into different grammatical cases. All with just a few clicks! Traditionally, these tasks would require complex templates that are tricky to create or import. With Wikifunctions, it's simpler, faster, and automated. Huge thanks to Denny Vrandečić, Luca Martinelli, Sharvani Haran and the rest of the Wikifunctions team for their continued support. Many thanks to the Dagbani Wikimedians technical team, Iddrisu Khadija, Naafi Ibrahim, Dnshitobu, Father Shafiu and Iddrisu Alhassan Sibdow, for their contributions and feedback. I wish to also thank the entire community for their commitment and dedication towards this project.
