Not to undermine an importance of creation of new articles, but to note that after the reform of the administrative divisions of Ukraine in July 2020 dozens, if not hundreds of thousands of articles across many projects now contain wrong information (well, not up-to-date information). In the English Wikipedia, I was correcting it pretty much single-handedly since the last year, and I will probably finish correcting it by the end of this year (though occasionally I see people reverting me saying "information is redundant" or smth similar). I see that on all other projects, including Ukrainian and Russian Wikipedias which I would normally expect to take the lead, the articles about Ukrainian localities still contain this outdated information. I do not really expect to be acknowledged for this (looks like almost nobody cares), but a bit of attention to already existing articles would probably not harm.

Hi everyone!

By the end of May, we at Wikimedia Ukraine invite everyone to join CEE Spring (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_CEE_Spring_2021) to help discover Ukraine to the world.

The contest is devoted to improving Wikipedia content about Central and Eastern Europe across multiple languages; the Central & Eastern European community of Wikimedians has organized it every year since 2015.

Of course, you can write about many different CEE countries and regions within the contest, but we at Wikimedia Ukraine are planning to send special souvenirs for most active contributors to articles about Ukraine specifically ;)

For the first time, we prepared the top-10 most important articles about Ukraine that are missing (red links) for each CEE Wikipedia (https://meta.wikimedia.org/?curid=11313069) and the top-10 important articles that are too short for each CEE Wikipedia (https://meta.wikimedia.org/?curid=11313068).

And we also have the general top-100 list with important topics missing in many Wikipedias: https://meta.wikimedia.org/?curid=10583331

You can read the full announcement (and share it to help us spread the world) here: https://diff.wikimedia.org/2021/05/06/join-cee-spring-on-wikipedia-to-help-discover-ukraine-to-the-world/
