Contests
User:Dr. Blofeld has created 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 Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:34, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

I need some help with editing an existing ( and biased) wikipage of an african politician
Hi Nishkid64 I've got a lot of research on this politician (Blaise Compaore), all with references, but when I try to add info, some people who don't like him remove it,

I have been attempting to add my information to the french wikipedia site as well and there I'm meeting a lot of resistance from people - who simply delete all my additions - even though they have credible sources and almost every paragraph is referenced.

For the English version I'm using almost the same text (but, of course in English) and I want to ensure that I don't hit the same problems. This weekend I will be putting the rest of the text into my sandbox. (there is already quite a lot there...)

Can you give me tips and help in creating a better page than the biased and unrefrenced stuf that is thre now?

Thanks Webworkx64 Webworkx64 (talk) 12:40, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
