Invite to Join Wikipedia Asian Month 2023
You are receiving this message because you participated in the Wikipedia Asian Month 2022 as an organizer or editor. Dear all,

The Wikipedia Asian Month 2023[1] is coming ! The campaign start within a flexible 30 days from November to December. Following with the changes of the rules made by last year, the wish to have more people get to know Asia and Asian related topic is the same! ''' Click "Here" to Organize/Join a WAM Event. '''

1. Propose "Focus Theme" related to Asia !

If you are based somewhere in Asia, or have specific passion on an Asian topic, please propose your "Focus Theme" by October 25th. The WAM international team will select 5 themes. Please propose your focus theme through this link[2].

2. Enhancing existing articles can also count as part of campaign contribution.

Any edits, including creating new articles or adding new content to existing articles, over 3000 bytes in total would be able to get a reward. Last year, due to this change of rules, the Programs & Events Dashboard was suggested. However, according to community survey of 2022, Fountain Tool is still the best platform for tracking edit and points. You don’t need to create any Dashboard. For the tracking of editing existing article, the international team is currently designing a form. Will soon publish to the main page of WAM 2023.

3. More flexible campaign time

The contribution duration would remain 30days, but we extended the overall campaign timeline to 2 months. All organizers can decide when to start their WAM as long as the whole duration is within November 1st to December 31th. It means that you can participate in WAM based on the needs of your local community.

Timetable


 * October 1st, 2023 : Publish International Campaign Page of the Year
 * October 5th to 25th, 2023 : Call for focus themes of WAM 2023.
 * Before 29 October, 2023: Complete Registration [3] of Each language Wikipedia.
 * November 1st, UTC 00:00 to December 31th, UTC 00:00, 2023: Running the Campaign. (Find your local campaign for the actual event date.)

Translation contest
Hi Penny Richards, I see that you have added two articles as entries to the translation contest. The articles are Kathleen Moore Knight and Leigh Richmond. I do not see that they are translations of articles. Am I missing something? Best, WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 23:08, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi WomenArtistUpdates! Before this week, Leigh Richmond only had an article in de wiki, and Kathleen Moore Knight only had an article in fr wiki. I used those articles as starting points for the en wiki articles I started this week. I thought I included the right language in my edit summaries, hmmm. But anyway, that's the explanation. I found a couple American women writers who only had articles in other language wikis, and made them English articles starting from those. Penny Richards (talk) 23:41, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * My mistake Penny...doh! Thanks. WomenArtistUpdates (talk) 00:05, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
 * No trouble; it's always interesting to me to find US biographies that only exist in non-English wikis. (A lot of film bios are only in it wiki, for example.) Penny Richards (talk) 01:12, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
