I'm so happy to hear that the contest is
happening - and it's great to see so many great folks involved so far!
We can (try) to post about the contest from the Wikimedia social media accounts - please
let me know if this is something you are interested in.
Also, let us know when the grant is ready for review.
Hello Kacie :)
Well, it is Dr Blofeld who is the grantee. So it is pretty much up to him to say if the
grant is final for review...
Blo ? Is that good on your side ?

Interested for the push from Wikimedia social media accounts.
I'll push it as well from the Wiki Loves Women and WikiAfrica FB and twitter
accounts. And will post in Wikimedia Foundation Social Media.

On another note, I opened a request for a site notice.
It is awfully short of time. I apology for that.
Just pointing out to it :

It needs someone to do the banner.

Hello gals and guys
In case you missed it, I wanted to inform you of the forthcoming Africa Destubathon
What ?
The idea is simple: blast away as many of our 37,000 + Africa stubs as possible! There
will hopefully be a prize to the editor who fleshes out the most stubs from every country
of Africa.
All that is required for this is basic article expansions and improvements. To
"destub" an article all you have to do is ensure it's minimum 1.5 kb (1500
characters) readable prose in total
The existing text and text you add is expected to all be verifiable and adequately
sourced to reliable sources, with the expected Wikipedia:Citations drawn up. Whoever
"destubs" the most articles for a given country wins a prize, and whoever wins
the most "destubs" for the most countries will be crowned the overall winner.
Where ?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Africa/The_Africa_Destu…
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Africa/The_Africa_Destubathon>
When
Starting Oct 15
Anything special ?
There will be special prizes for whoever destub the more African Women articles
We need your help NOW
Advices (on the talk page) and endorsement (on the grant page) are welcome (if you feel
like it is a good idea of course)
