artists).
More information about the jury's work is available here:

Hi everyone,
March is Women's History Month, and this will be the second year for
WikiWomen's History Month, an *international* collaborative event that
takes place offline at edit-a-thons and online through project focuses.
Events and projects focus on improving women's history coverage on any
language project. We have a page on English Wikipedia, like last year,
to gather all of the events:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiWomen%27s_History_Month
So far we have events in South America, Europe and the United States.
I hope you'll consider throwing an event in your town, village, or city
- or do a women's history focus for your WikiProject - large or small!

This is a late update for those who don't know about Wikimania 2013
Hong Kong, and a gentle reminder for those who are already aware of
the annual Wikimedia conference that is being organized in Hong Kong
on 7-11 August 2013. Scholarships to cover travel and living expenses
are available for long-term contributors of our projects. If you are
a long-term contributor to Wikipedia or any other Wikimedia projects,
I would strongly recommend that you apply. Looking forward to a
positive response, Anirudh.
