WikiLovesTunis/Tunisia - Wikimedia-tn

23 Sep 2019

Hi all,

I know it is too early to discuss WikiConvention, but I just got an idea:
How about we organize an online editing contest, WikiLovesTunis or
WikiLoveTunisia, similar to WikiLovesYerevan
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Yerevan_International_edit-a-thon>
that happened last year, during which participants wrote articles about
Yereva related topics, and in our case Tunis maybe, and then the top 10
contributors got a free flight and accommodation for a weekend in Yerevan.
In our case, we can give the top 3 for example scholarships to participate
in WikiConvention.

The project will cost nothing apart of the scholarships that will be part
of the the funds for the convention.

What do you think of the idea? I remember the output of the contest for
Yerevan, and it was amazing: I think around 5000 articles in maybe 50
languages in a month!! When it comes to free trips, people get very excited
to edit and write.

I can work on it in January if the idea is accepted.
Have a nice day,
Houssem
