Dear recipient:

Hi, I'm a volunteer who edits Wikipedia under the pseudonym "username". I wanted to let you know about an initiative some of us are doing in April in honor of the 420 holiday. You can find out more about it here:


 * Wikipedia:WikiProject Cannabis/420 Collaboration (or use the shortcut WP:420)

This is not an official Wikipedia function, just something some individuals have put together under the WikiProject Cannabis banner. But we are trying to get word out. If you think your audience might be interested, please share.


 * The purpose of this project is for experienced Wikipedia editors, who may or may not edit cannabis articles often, and people who are familiar with cannabis topics, but do not edit Wikipedia regularly, to create and improve related content on Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects. Bringing these two groups together, even for a short period of time, has the potential to improve many articles on the Internet's largest and most popular general reference work.
 * We seek the inclusion of neutral, appropriately sourced facts. We want Wikipedia to have accurate, reliable information about cannabis, just like we want there to be trustworthy content about astronauts, butterflies, and your favorite episode of South Park.
 * We have no political agenda. We are not activists advocating for legalization. If you want to edit an article about an anti-drug program, or expand a section about the negative health effects of smoking, great! We welcome your participation. All we're promoting here is free knowledge.

By the way, one of the under-construction articles for the 420 project concerns Internet celebrities, which made us think of notifying you of the project.

Yours,

Wikipedia editor "username"
