Hello Everyone,
In collaboration with Wiki Loves Love team, we are organizing Wiki Loves
Women in India and communities who want to be part of the project can join
at the meta page below. You are welcome to conduct offline events for this
in individual capacity. Women organizers are encouraged to organize it in
their communities but we equally encourage people of all genders to be a
part of this program by supporting and organizing it together as a team
towards common goal of bridging gender gap on Wikipedia. The project is
focused on two parts: creating or improving articles in Indic languages on
topics related to gender, marriage and women biographies on Wikipedia and
the second part will be focused on integration of images from Wiki Loves
Love 2019 Commons contest in Wikipedia Articles. For this
program, [[User:Wikilover90|Wikilover90]] and I will be assisting and
facilitating local organizers from different communities. Please contact us
for more information,. ~~~~
