Subject: [African Wikimedians] Organizing a Writing Contest on notable
African women for Wikipedia 15
To: Mailing list for African Wikimedians <
african-wikimedians(a)lists.wikimedia.org>
Hello friends
Isla and I thought of organizing a Writing Contest as part of Wikipedia 15
global celebrations and we would like your feedback (and hopefully support
:)) on that idea.
The general idea would be to organize a Contest that will be officially
launched on the 15th of January and will have a duration of 15 days.
The goal would be to write 15 articles on notable african women. Each team
would work only on one article. It would operated in English and French.
Two juries would decide on the best articles (probably with a "best
quality" or "largest quantity" approach, with some bonus prizes for special
cases such as "solo team" or best media). We should hopefully be able to
get some little prices for the winners.
One point upon which we are undecided (and will welcome very much your
feedback ;)) is about how the teams would best form.
- Should we rather do "country teams" ? eg, Team Ghana, team Ivory Coast,
team Algeria etc.
- or should we rather do "free choice team" where people would freely
propose an article to create and other people would join in, whatever their
country ?
There are arguments for and against both options. Traditionnaly, most
Writing Contest on Wikipedia are "free choice team" (for example, for the
WikiConcours on the French Wikipedia here :
https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipédia:Wikiconcours) and allow to be very
inclusive of everyone, but there are also arguments in favor of Country
teams only.
What do you think ?
Anthere

Hello everyone.
Firstly:
Wikipedia turns 15 on January 15. Time to celebrate and continue recruiting
more Ghanaian Wikipedians and contributing to Ghanaian information on the
wiki.
Details of activities will be made known but for now I advice that members
on Facebook should change profile photos and cover photos to help promote
the celebration.
Please find the photos attached.
Or
Go to my profile <https://www.facebook.com/sandister.t> and see how I am
rocking mine and pick the photos from there.
We will release images which match the dimension requirements for Twitter
and G+ shortly.
Secondly:
Please tweet about the celebration and also invite people to join us. If
you don't know what to say, at least go to Twitter and click the hashtag
#Wikipedia15 <https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Wikipedia15&src=typd> and
retweet worthy things you find. Really nice stuff there.
Lastly:
Do you need an article to edit today? Join me for this one about the
longest lived gorilla. His name was Massa
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massa_(gorilla)> and story has it that he
was from Ghana.
Pardon errors.
