Your project and ours[edit]

We are having a really enjoyable time with our WiR team working on the article for Malouma. Don't know if you know much about our project, but we have a couple of upcoming virtual editathons that you might be interested in. We would be really happy to have you or anyone in your project add needed biography articles to our working list and participate in the virtual editathon. Feel free to contact us on the project talk page or send a message to me or @Rosiestep and Megalibrarygirl: or any of our project members if you have questions.

Black women's history will run from February 1-15 in conjunction with Black History Month. We have links of articles that are crowd sourced to work on. Feel free to add anyone to the list here Black women's history redlinks. As you will see on the list we usually add a link or two to verify notability and give editors a jump start on creation.

We also have an event scheduled for August 1-14 in conjunction with Indigenous People's Day on August 9th. The sign-up sheet has not been created yet as it is still a ways off, but we have started building a list of articles to work on, which is here Indigenous women's history redlinks. SusunW (talk) 23:48, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dear SusunW, thanks for contacting Anthere and I. You are right, what you are doing at WiR is very much aligned with what we are doing with WLW, but especially with the #15Challenge!! We would love to chat more about how we can use the two projects to help each other. I am sure we can get involved in the Black women's history event, even if I am based in Cape Town ... It looks amazing. We can use the redlinks that remain from the suggested articles and see if people want to continue. Very exciting to have a post contest goal and way of continuing the work. We should chat more. My email address is isla at wikiafrica dot net. Look forward to hearing more. My skype address is Islahaddow Isla Haddow (talk) 09:26, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Fabulous, and you are right. The beauty of virtual editathons is that it doesn't matter where you are. I live in southern Mexico. Also correct about moving your redlinks to the lists. The lists are there all the time, so anyone can work on them, any time. We have tons of lists. Rosiestep what say you to a skype call? SusunW (talk) 15:31, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Islahaddow and Anthere. It is nice to meet you! Sorry I didn't reply here earlier; I was tired from travels over the weekend. Echoing @SusunW, I would very much like to continue collaboration with you and your team, even after the current challenge is done. So thank you for being interested in the work that we do at WiR! Yes, let's Skype; I'll email you tonight after I get back from work so that we can coordinate date/time, and so on. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:42, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I love it when a plan comes together! And on a side note, I am thinking we can take Malouma to GA, but we need photos. We have only found one. *sigh* Any chance there are pictures of her, the Mauritanian Senate, or even an ardin harp that meet WP criteria on your side of the pond? We are finding nothing from the Americas. SusunW (talk) 15:54, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Great project ! I'll have a look about Malouma. And maybe suggest translation in French as well ;) Anthere (talk)
Very cool Anthere. I found one more photo, on the US embassy site, but that is still very few for a GA nomination. But imagine, a Mauritanian woman at GA. THAT would be amazing. SusunW (talk) 22:20, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Black Women's History online edit-a-thon

--Ipigott (talk) 10:47, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Hello Islahaddow, and happy Wikipedia @ 15. This is to notify you of Wiki Loves Nigeria Writing Contest organized by the Wikimedia User Group Nigeria to commiserate the 15th anniversary of Wikipedia. The contest will start on 28 January 2016 and end on 29 February 2016. Please help to suggest articles on notable Nigeria-related topic here and if you like to be part of the jury, add your name here. Thanks for your participation. Warm regards Olaniyan Olushola (talk) 02:35, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Last December, I invited you to share your views on the value of Wikimedia conferences and the planning process of Wikimania. We have completed analysis of these results and have prepared this report summarizing your feedback and important changes for Wikimania starting in 2018 as an experiment. Feedback and comments are welcome at the discussion page. Thank you so much for your participation. I JethroBT (WMF), Community Resources, 22:47, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A contest for Africa[edit]

Hi Isla. You might have seen my name in some of page histories for African places, though I know it's a big site and possible you've never heard of me haha! I did review the Malouma article recently. I'm currently running Wikipedia:WikiProject Wales/Awaken the Dragon, a contest/editathon for a month for Wales in which we hope WMUK will come up with the funds for prizes. Potentially I think the same model could be copied to other subjects and make this sort of thing more widespread and not just me doing it either. You and others could do the same thing. It's early days yet and we need to see how things work but when I thought about scaling this sort of thing one of my first thoughts was doing one for Africa, which is undoubtedly the poorest documented on here. I don't know if South Africa has a heritage fund or something which might support education on here for this but it could potentially involve governments in Africa. Something in which we can get students contributing and winning things for producing content. Prizes such as Amazon vouchers I'm sure would really benefit people in Africa, who could then use them to buy books, and further work on the project. Or something which assists students with their university studies in return for producing the most/best content for Africa on here. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:21, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I see Wikipedia:Wiki Loves Nigeria/Writing Contest is already making a step in the right direction. But we need something for all of Africa and to give people the chance of really winning decent prizes for producing content I think to attract more people. Do you think it would be worth approaching the South African government or charity to help fund it? Can you think of anybody worth contacting and forming an agreement with? I think if it was demonstrated how much potential wikipedia has for educating the masses in South Africa and the continent it would stand a chance. It could be something also involving Afrikaans wikipedia and other languages. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:27, 16 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A kitten for you![edit]

Hello Isla, This is a belated thank you for the Wiki Loves Women t-shirt you gave me at Wikimania. I love it and wear it proudly. Till we meet again...

Rosiestep (talk) 18:23, 15 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rosiestep an absolute pleasure!!! Thank you for my kitten, I love her! Isla Haddow (talk) 16:13, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contests[edit]

User:Dr. Blofeld has created Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/Contests. The idea is to run a series of contests/editathons focusing on each region of Africa. He has spoken to Wikimedia about it and $1000-1500 is possible for prize money. As someone who has previously expressed interest in African topics, would you be interested in contributing to one or assisting draw up core article/missing article lists? He says he's thinking of North Africa for an inaugural one in October. If interested please sign up in the participants section of the Contest page, thanks.♦ --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:26, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Ser Amantio di Nicolao and Dr. Blofeld, I see just now there is an earlier email from Dr Blofeld that I have missed that seems about a similar subject.
Of course I am very interested and I think that other people would be too. You do know there are rather a few projects on Wikipedia driving content about Africa that I am already involved with? Just a few of these are Wiki Loves Women, Wiki Loves Africa, and almost all of the WikiAfrica movement projects. How is this going to be different from these? Is it a writing contest for experienced Wikipedians? Or a contest for newbies in Africa? I would like to talk further on it. If you are keen, please email me on isla [@] wikiloveswomen.org. Thanks for getting involved. Isla Haddow (talk) 14:20, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's intended for anybody Isla! General articles. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:28, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Africa Destubathon[edit]

Hi, I decided to abandon the North African proposal for the time being until there is universal support to run regional contests. I was disturbed by some of the comments Anthere made and several of the Nigerian coordinators from Wiki Loves Women walking out. I got the impression that you all thought I was trying to compete or steal your thunder or something, which is really the last thing I'm trying to do. I want to move forward in a way in which I can respect the work and achievements you've already made, and something which can involve you and the others in development on here. Instead I'm planning on launching a general Destubbing contest for the whole continent and ideally splitting the prize money into 52 lots and rewarding the editor who fleshes out the most stub articles from each African nation. So it would benefit every country. I also think if you and Anthere got on board with this we could also do this for French wikipedia and Afrikaans wikipedia at the same time. I don't know if you speak Afrikaans yourself but I'm sure you have contacts. Yoruba wiki is also welcome to join in the destubbing contest, but we'll need the support of Olushola and Oluwa. If you're interested I'm inviting you to be one of the lead coordinators of it with me.♦ Dr. Blofeld 06:39, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Dr Blofeld, notifications show that you have sent me an email, however due to a bug in the system, I have not yet received it. Please can you resend that email to this address isla at wikiloveswomen dot org. Further, it would be good, before you go forward with your planned "Destubathon", that you open the idea up for discussion with Wikimedians across Africa. And that you do research into what is actually happening in Africa before you do so - and how your project could possibly fit in with, assist and support the long-laid, hard-fought plans of others, and not the other way around. A deep understanding of the landscape and early consultation might have prevented all of this in the first place.
To find out what is happening in Africa you can start here at Wikimedia in Africa and here at the Africa Portal (this link does need updating, but it does give you a lot of background). To reach Wikimedians across Africa, you can subscribe to the African Wikimedians list at [1]. I think that a contest to de-stub, expand and add content about Africa is a really good idea and would fit in well with what is currently happening across the continent. Once you have immersed yourself in, and understand the challenges that face contributing from and sharing content from Africa (as well as the abiding issues around systemic bias, that include privilege, geographies of knowledge and, and, and - you can start here) then we can talk. Isla Haddow (talk) 07:06, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. My email was largely the same as here.. I did actually check out what was being done and was well aware of the Wiki Loves Women because my friend Rosie was given a tshirt by you and knew about it through the others anyway. I also knew that there was a movement to improve monuments but hadn't been following its progress in the commons. I didn't see any major effort going into trying to improve the whole continent for every topic. I have a lot of experience with African content and running contests too, so when I initially thought of this, my first thought wasn't that anybody in particular owned African contests or I would have to ask for permission. It was a genuine good faith attempt to try to improve the entire continent and in all topics. And remember that I did alert you of this in February before I started anything and I didn't get a reply. As great as the work is to date, particularly with Wikiloveswomen, I see no movement on here to tackle everything at once.

I am fully aware of the challenges facing content production on the African continent through experience, in the early days on here I found it exasperating trying to find information about Gabonese towns for example. But google book coverage and African news portals now provide more information than ever before and it is possible now to really make a big difference in improvements for all topics, even if info is still sparse for many rural localities and sources can often be very biased. I'm just really not trying to steal your thunder or belittle what has been achieved of late, I want full support in everything I do and to work together, but as I've been here ten years and am one of the site's most experienced editors, I'm not used to asking permission before I start things! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:18, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

For the Destubathon the idea is this: A contest to flesh out stubs from every country on the African continent. 52 countries I was last told it was. If we got £100-200 from WMUK on it I would only be able to give that to the winner of the most destubs, but if we could get say $1300 with main foundation support, we could then split that into 52 lots, and give a $25 prize to whoever destubs the most articles for each country during the contest. Then whoever destubs the most lots for the most African nations will be crowned overall winner. So every country and multiple topics are going to get improved with this. This is also something which will benefit our African wildlife stubs at the same time as there's an enormous amount of species/genus stubs for Africa which are undeveloped. You're welcome to be a part of this. As for it fitting in and supporting what has been started, if we could get say $200 reward to whoever destubs the most women articles throughout the entire contest, could you imagine how many articles might get improved? If you support it and would like to help me run it let me know, the offer is there. I can project it as a joint project coordination with Wiki Loves Women, so all of the women articles which get destubbed during it will count towards your own drive. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:40, 9 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I want to make it clear that I wasn't suggesting that you needed to "ask permission" (and neither do I feel I am some kind of gatekeeper or "own African contests" as you intimate in your message). All I suggested was that through a little research, and by following on the information that I gave you a few months ago here, you could have proactively tailored any contest that you have planned to align with what others were doing. And, as the WMF asked, to get more support from other Wikipedians across Africa. A bit like the way that Olaniyan Olushola is currently being asked to consider tailoring the Wiki Loves Women Nigeria contest to the WIR agenda - and how you are now thinking in terms of Wiki Loves Women.
Anthere and I have discussed your thoughts about Wiki Loves Women. We would like to support a "focus" for your destubathon that could also be done in partnership with Women in Red (if @Rosiestep: and @Ipigott: are keen?). The "focus" would be on de-stubbing articles about notable African women. From our side, we can support with communication, the stub list and a possible prize/s (this still has to be confirmed). Let me know by email if you are interested (isla @ wikiloveswomen dot org) and we can set up a Skype/hangout session to discuss further. Isla Haddow (talk) 11:08, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I am traveling so sorry for brevity, but wanted to say, yes, I am keen on this as a Women in Red partnership. Also, I have questions. Isla, I will email you per above. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:13, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. That's great Isla, glad you're interested. Though it would be a general destubathon if we had a special prize for the most general destubs on women articles from across the continent we should be able to benefit both the Wiki Loves Women and Women groups and WP:Africa at the same time. The reward for most destubs by each country might encourage anybody to destub any article, but then the special prize might make more editors work on women biographies to go for both. An editor at the 10,000 Challenge BTW has offered to chip in to the prize fund $200 for the next contest I think. That could go towards the special prize I guess. I've set up a page at Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon. What I'll do is list a full list of existing women stubs under each country, to increase the chances that a participant might improve them. If anybody could help me with that over the next few weeks in preparation I'd be grateful. I'm due to speak to Wikimedia tomorrow, but I think it's best if we can get something approved first before publicizing this. If the prize fund is sufficient potentially we could attract new editors to the Wiki Loves Women cause through this and generate interest in general in African topics.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:49, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Loves Women- Monthly Contest![edit]

Wiki Loves Women- Monthly Contest!
Hello, this is to notify you about a monthly article writing contest organized by Wikimedia User Group Nigeria in collaboration with Wiki Loves Women to increase the coverage of Nigerian women on Wikipedia! This contest starts on September 20, 2016. Thank you.

Olaniyan Olushola (talk) 08:06, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Olaniyan Olushola: OK. Great stuff! We'll join you from 20 September to 20 October. If you wish, I'll make an announcement on Women in Red too. If you can tell me where to find the main announcement on this contest, I can include it in the announcement. We already have a list of missing articles on Nigeria here. Please add the names of any women who you think also deserve articles. Perhaps we can arrange a virtual editathon. Megalibrarygirl: If you are not too busy, perhaps you could also try to expand our list of red links on Nigeria.--Ipigott (talk) 14:03, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Ipigott and Olaniyan Olushola:, I'll hunt around for links for Nigerian women and add the redlist to the WiR page. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 16:15, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Ipigott and Megalibrarygirl: Thank you for your support on this project.As earlier mentioned in our notification, we are looking at a monthly contest and each month will come with a specific theme. The maiden edition will center around Women in Entertainment. Therefore, since you wish to assist with the red links. You can add it here.Olaniyan Olushola (talk) 16:51, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As I understood the debate WIR are planning to collaborate on Nigerian Women, I'm concerned that we are short of links for that. If we make in Women in Entertainment then we may run out of link/leads. Victuallers (talk) 17:32, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Victuallers: Thanks to Megalibrarygirl we already have heaps of red links here and here. Olaniyan has also started a list of entertainers here. Perhaps we should merge them for those on WiR.--Ipigott (talk) 19:04, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Rosiestep, SusunW, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, and Olaniyan Olushola: I see there is a Contest page here. The dates (20 September to 19 October) and the coverage (Nigerian women in entertainment) are well defined. So perhaps WiR should go along with the dates and keep to entertainers. Other priorities will follow in subsequent months.--Ipigott (talk) 19:32, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Ipigott, SusunW, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, and Olaniyan Olushola: Agree about Women in Red's participation in this contest. That said:
  • We should copy this conversation to the WiR talkpage for historical context.
  • I have some suggested changes for the WiR event. This is just my opinion and is not meant to override the efforts of WikiProject Wiki Loves Women /Team Nigeria/Contests.
Note, I don't have bandwidth to create the WiR meetup page or invitations because of conference planning responsibilities, but I can send out MassMessage if someone creates the invite. --Rosiestep (talk) 20:35, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Pleased to see we have lots of links and if we have a broader subject then that will ensure we dont run out. Ive signed up anyway Victuallers (talk) 21:00, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good to me, Rosiestep. Let me know how I can help. I'll see if I can dig up some more Nigerian women, too. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 21:04, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Megalibrarygirl - awesome! If you have time, can you set up the WiR meetup page? Thank you. --Rosiestep (talk) 22:52, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Rosiestep, will do! :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 23:34, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Rosiestep, here's the first draft of the Meetup Page Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/Meetup/23. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 23:48, 12 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Megalibrarygirl - it looks great! Thank you. --Rosiestep (talk) 04:32, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi@Rosiestep, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, Islahaddow, Anthere, and Jamie Tubers:, thanks for the zeal on our project but i am a bit confused now because we are having two pages for the contest already. As earlier said, this is our contents page here and i can see yours: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women_in_Red/Meetup/23. Except, i am missing something out.... The concept behind our contest is that we will be changing theme every month for all our contestants with focus on Nigerian women. More so we have fixed the theme: Women in Entertainment for September-October.This trend will go till March next year. Since the contest will commence on the 20th of this month, we have seven days widow period to add more red Links to the project. Then, we will broadcast the page to all the likely contestants.Though, we are not oppose to working with WIR but i am concern with two pages because that will definitely cause confusion. Please let's work with our page.Thanks. Olaniyan Olushola (talk) 05:35, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Olaniyan Olushola, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, Islahaddow, Anthere, and Jamie Tubers: - Sorry for the confusion. Should we delete the Women in Red page? --Rosiestep (talk) 11:35, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Olaniyan Olushola, Rosiestep, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, Islahaddow, Anthere, and Jamie Tubers: I think the confusion is a result of the fact that there was no contest page when we first started discussing this. While I don't think we should delete the WiR23 page, I think we should tailor it to coincide with the dates of the first monthly Nigerian contest (20 September to 19 October) and make it clear that the overriding priority is Nigerian women in entertainment. If we extend our dates until the end of the month, we'll only cause more confusion.--Ipigott (talk) 13:15, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Olaniyan Olushola, Rosiestep, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, Islahaddow, Anthere, and Jamie Tubers:now that we know that there is a contest page, i think we should delete the WIR23 and lets focus on our page. I am only concerned on how to manage the contest Thanks.Olaniyan Olushola (talk) 13:26, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Olaniyan Olushola, Rosiestep, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, Islahaddow, Anthere, Jamie Tubers, and Dr. Blofeld: I'm really sorry to hear we are causing you so much trouble. We'll leave everything in your hands. Unless any of the others have strong objections, I think the WiR23 page should be deleted. In any case, I think it was a mistake to put it together so quickly, especially as I was trying to sort things out with Jamie (see here). It looks to me as if the WiR interest in Nigerian women is much wider than just entertainers and could perhaps be combined with the three other countries covered by Wiki Loves Women and the Goethe Institut. @Olaniyan Olushola: If you would like us to make an announcement on WiR, perhaps you could send me a draft of the text and I will include it on our main page for information. I hope you'll have lots of editors participating in your event.--Ipigott (talk) 13:54, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Olaniyan Olushola, Rosiestep, Ipigott, Victuallers, Islahaddow, Anthere, Jamie Tubers, and Dr. Blofeld: Sorry for adding to the confusion too. :( But as you can see, we are super happy to help! :D Megalibrarygirl (talk) 16:12, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Rosiestep, Megalibrarygirl, Victuallers, Islahaddow, Anthere, Jamie Tubers, Ipigott, and Megalibrarygirl: I am indeed sorry for my delayed reply. I will send the modified notification as requested by Ipigott anytime soon. Kindly note that WUGN would like to run the contest on a single page with your support in terms of participation in content creation as well as creating awareness for the contest for others to get involved and participate. We will appreciate any suggestions on improvement of our project page. Thanks! 16:57, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
I guess this is your call but I think a cleverer solution of using a redirect or a transclusion is a better idea. I'm not sure that this has been thought through. As I understand it this is a one-off collaboration for one month. I shall be on vacation for the start of it, but I hope to join in when I return. Victuallers (talk) 17:23, 15 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for my delay in responding but I believe the Women in Red page is being revised or deleted per above. Thank you. --Rosiestep (talk) 01:21, 16 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot[edit]

We'd like to invite you to participate in a user study closely related to SuggestBot. User:Another Article is seeking to understand more about the workflow and time commitment of contributors to the English Wikipedia. As part of this study you will occasionally be prompted to answer questions about your editing activity, and these questions should never take more than a minute or two to complete. The intended length of the study is two weeks, but your actual time commitment is totally up to you. If you would like to see more details you can read the project proposal at Research:Measuring editor time commitment and workflow (on meta), but if you are feeling bold and would like just like to sign up right now you can add the line importScript("User:Another_Article/workflowstudyclient.js"); to your common.js. Contact User:Another Article if you have any questions about this study!

Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information. For more information about the columns and categories, please consult the documentation and please get in touch on SuggestBot's talk page with any questions you might have.
