Hello everyone,
September is here, and with it the launch of the 6th edition of the #SheSaid campaign! https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid/SheSaid_2025 I hope you are all doing well. On behalf of the Wiki Loves Women team https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Wiki_Loves_Women/Team, I’m delighted to share with you the key information you’ll need for this new edition, running from 1st September to 31st December 2025.
*Before diving in, a warm welcome to all the new linguistic communities joining us this year – welcome to the #SheSaid family!* ==To stay organised== You’ll find everything you need on the SheSaid 2025 Meta page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid/SheSaid_2025. If you are a local campaign lead, please make sure to:
1.
Update your #SheSaid page on Wikiquote and add it to this list https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid/SheSaid_2025#Participating_Linguistic_Communities%3A_GO_THERE_TO_PARTICIPATE . 2.
Create your #SheSaid 2025 Meta page and add it to this list https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid/SheSaid_2025#Participating_Affiliates%2F_User_Groups .
==Office Hours== The Wiki Loves Women team will be hosting office hours on how to edit Wikiquote, and how to track results using the dashboard and queries. Dates will be announced soon. In the meantime, you can explore past recordings on the Resources and Tools meta page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid/Resources_and_Tools .==Tracking Results== To measure the campaign’s impact, we recommend that you:
-
Create a dashboard (please include User:Afek91), the main dashboard is here https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/Wiki_in_Africa/SheSaid_2025, and/or -
Use the queries https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid/Resources_and_Tools#Queries_to_track_articles_produced_per_language prepared by the WLW team.
Important:
-
Always add the hashtag #SheSaid to your Wikiquote edits. -
List all new and edited articles on your local #SheSaid page. -
If you are running events outside the official dates, you’ll need to track and collect your own results.
==Translations== We’d love your help translating the central notice banner and the 2025 Meta page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Women/SheSaid_2025/CentralNotice with the #SheSaid menu into your language. Every contribution makes the campaign more inclusive and accessible.==Communications==
