This section documents content conventions for the Mzizi registry and the applications built on it — not Mzizi-lang. This site’s own editorial rule for the language is different and stricter; see status.
Content in the bundu ecosystem is clear, direct and respectful. It is written for a diverse African audience — people who may speak English as a second or third language, who may be reading on a low-bandwidth connection, and who deserve the same quality of communication as readers anywhere.

Writing

Voice, tone, and the language conventions that apply to every piece of user-facing text.

Error messages

Patterns for errors that leave the reader with something to do next.

Inclusive language

Pan-African context, gender, terminology, and fields that fit real names.
These guidelines serve the whole ecosystem, and consistent voice across it is what makes a family of products feel like one. Ndiri nekuti tiri — I am because we are.
