The Wiki Love Women writing contest is now officially open !
Please join in to celebrate Wikipedia 15 by participating to the bilingual (English/French) writing contest to increase the number of notable African women that are covered on Wikipedia. The contest is also meant as a starting point of Wiki Loves Women, a content liberation project related to Women in Africa.
We would love to see you participate to the writing contest ! If you want to, there are 3 ways to participate
- You want to create an article ? Please add your name here
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Women/Writing_Contest/Tea... . You may be solo, or you could seek the help of others to join your team. Or you can join an already existing team. You must start a new article (translation from another language is allowed). You have 15 days :)
- Or you may simply add suggestions for articles to write here :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Women/Writing_Contest/Art... . Of course, be careful of notability etc.
- Or you would be willing to join the jury. If so, please drop to the
page
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wiki_Loves_Women/Writing_Contest/Jur... to propose your help
It is all meant to be an easy going contest... no hassle... just for the pleasure of working together on a theme still little covered on Wikipedia (even after 15 years...)
