Dear Farah, >From the Ikusgela <https://eu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari:Hezkuntza/Ikusgela>project, the educational video project of the Basque Wikipedia, we support the #KeepitOn initiative, and we have launched several messages of support on social networks (Mastodon <https://mastodon.eus/@Ikusgela/112841264099158559>/ X <https://x.com/ikusgela/status/1816074993366598014>).
This year students from Bangladesh have made translations into Bengali <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:WikiProject_Subtitling_Ikusgela>of the videos on philosophy that we have published. We are very grateful for their efforts and hope that the situation will be reversed. Best regards. Ander (member of the Ikusgela project).
