Fellow Wikimedians, Wikipedia Asian Month has started! WAM is an annual Wikipedia contest focused on the promotion of Asian content on various language-specific Wikipedias. Each participating community runs a month-long (November 2011) online edit-a-thon every November on their language's Wikipedia to create new content or improve existing articles about Asian topics apart from their own country. Individuals or groups who made exemplary work in this global campaign will be sent with postcards from the organisers! Visit https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Asian_Month_2021 to know more how to participate or how your community organise a contest in your local language Wikipedia! Kind regards, Butch Bustria
