Hi, dear WikiGap organizers!
Now it's less than one week to International Women's Day. I see more and
more events coming up <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap/2021/Events>,
which is very exciting! A few last updates from my end.
*We are launching WikiGap 2021 with a global kickoff event
<https://www.eventbrite.se/e/wikigap-kicking-off-the-global-campaign-tickets-141801918355>!*
Wikimedia Sverige together with Wikimedia DC, the Swedish Embassy to the
United States, and the Swedish Permanent Representation to the UN organize
a virtual event to kickoff WikiGap 2021. Ariel Cetrone at Wikimedia DC will
provide training on how to edit English Wikipedia with the visual editor,
and the Swedish ambassadors will give a few opening remarks. After this, we
will write articles on prominent women human rights defenders and
innovators together!
The event will take place on 8 March, at 14.00 London (UTC) time.
- Join

yourself,
or please help us extend the invitations further in your communities!
*We are innovating the WikiGap Challenge 2021
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap_Challenge/Participants>.*
From the feedback we received during last year's
challenge, we have changed
the points system, to make it simpler, fairer, and
focused on contributions
with good content. The challenge this year will in its current form
''only'' focus on Wikipedia. We will follow up with WikiGap Challenges
specifically for Wikidata later during the year.
We know that many WikiGap organizers this year focus on challenges as
well. *Participants
in regional or local challenges can, if they want to, add entries to these
challenges to the WikiGap Challenge as well.*
- Take part in the challenge yourself
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap_Challenge/Participants>, or
inform your communities!
As always, feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Hi again,
A few further WikiGap updates!
- We are launching the global campaign and the WikiGap Challenge with
a virtual event on 8 March. Find out more on the page on Meta
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap/2021/Global_kickoff> or in
the Facebook event <https://www.facebook.com/events/109257844426064>. Register
here
<https://www.eventbrite.com/e/wikigap-kicking-off-the-global-campaign-tickets-141801918355?ref=estw>
if
you would like to take part. If you know of people you think should join,
feel free to forward the information! The event will among other things
include an introduction on how to edit using visual editor on English
Language Wikipedia.
- We have now published some guidance on how to organize a successful
WikiGap event virtually. As with all things Wikip/median, it is not
finished – and I would love to have your thoughts and input, either here or
on the talk page. You find the guidance here
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap/Virtual_WikiGap>.
- We will run a WikiGap Challenge
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap_Challenge> this year too, of
course. We are also, with input from many previous attendees, re-doing the
points system a bit. It is not fully established yet – so feel free to
reach out with feedback and input also now.
Best

>> Hi!
>>
>> 2020 is slowly drawing to a close. When we have now summarized the
>> WikiGap Campaign in 2020, we see that – in spite of the ongoing pandemic! –
>> the campaign has gathered almost 1,500 editors, and recruited at least 250
>> new ones, to edit 19,000 articles and create almost 2,000 new ones about
>> women! The almost 30,000 edits (!) have been viewed by just short than
>> 45 million times in 2020 alone. Several affiliates have held their first
>> events, and we are happy to see that more and more people and organizations
>> are interested in joining the campaign. We are, as always, completely
>> astonished by the work! Well done, all WikiGap organizers.
>>
>> With this email, we also want to announce that we are beginning
>> preparations for the WikiGap Campaign in 2021
>> <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap>. The world looks nothing like
>> what we are used to, and we will do our best as global coordinators to find
>> a model that can work for both digital and physical events.
>>
>> If you already have good connections with the Swedish embassy and/or
>> other local partners, it might be good to reach out soon after New Year! If
>> you want help with new contacts, feel free to reach out to us!
>>
>> If you already have decided that are taking part next year, you can list
>> your event here:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiGap/2021/Events
>>
>> We also plan to experiment a bit next year with international
>> partnerships and new concepts for international coordination. We are among
>> other things coordinating with several UN agencies and other international
>> organizations. Stay tuned – we think this will be a great opportunity!
>>
>> Otherwise, we wish you happy holidays, a Merry Christmas for those who
>> celebrate, and a happy new year.
