What it does
No ability.
No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Institutions cards protect your side, and come back strong when you're losing.
The site, in 2006
A project to get African cultural organisations, museums, archives, bloggers and journalists to write for Wikipedia.
The lettera27 Foundation started it in 2006 with Wikimedia Italia. Its Share Your Knowledge campaign, with the Africa Centre and over 100 partner institutions, reached 30,000 African contributions to Wikimedia projects in 2012.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
