Hi Yaroslav,
Is there a (online) source for the new administrative divisions we can
base our edits on?
I'm sure several people across different languages on this list would like
to help out with the updates.
Vriendelijke groet,
Ciell

Not to undermine an importance of creation of new
articles, but to note
that after the reform of the administrative divisions of Ukraine in July
2020 dozens, if not hundreds of thousands of articles across many projects
now contain wrong information (well, not up-to-date information). In the
English Wikipedia, I was correcting it pretty much single-handedly since
the last year, and I will probably finish correcting it by the end of this
year (though occasionally I see people reverting me saying "information is
redundant" or smth similar). I see that on all other projects, including
Ukrainian and Russian Wikipedias which I would normally expect to take the
lead, the articles about Ukrainian localities still contain this outdated
information. I do not really expect to be acknowledged for this (looks like
almost nobody cares), but a bit of attention to already existing articles
would probably not harm.
Best
Yaroslav

Hi everyone!
By the end of May, we at Wikimedia Ukraine invite everyone to join CEE
Spring (
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_CEE_Spring_2021) to
help discover Ukraine to the world.
The contest is devoted to improving Wikipedia content about Central and
Eastern Europe across multiple languages; the Central & Eastern European
community of Wikimedians has organized it every year since 2015.
Of course, you can write about many different CEE countries and regions
within the contest, but we at Wikimedia Ukraine are planning to send
special souvenirs for most active contributors to articles about Ukraine
specifically ;)
For the first time, we prepared the top-10 most important articles about
Ukraine that are missing (red links) for each CEE Wikipedia (
https://meta.wikimedia.org/?curid=11313069) and the top-10 important
articles that are too short for each CEE Wikipedia (
https://meta.wikimedia.org/?curid=11313068).
And we also have the general top-100 list with important topics missing
in many Wikipedias:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/?curid=10583331
You can read the full announcement (and share it to help us spread the
world) here:
