Positions on Jerusalem
I added the WikiProject's template to the talk page of Positions on Jerusalem but it was removed. I think that it's on the scope of the project because the importance of the city in the region, specially in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Do you think that it should be re-added?

Women in Green's 5th Edit-a-thon
 Hello WikiProject Western Asia:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a  month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there! Grnrchst (talk) 14:10, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

Developing Countries WikiContest
Starting this July, we will see a new contest on the scene - the Developing Countries WikiContest (WP:DCWC)! Think of it as a WikiCup but only for articles and media on developing countries.

Competitors may submit GAs, GTs, FAs, FTs, FLs, FPs, and DYK and ITN entries from/on developing countries to gain points and proceed to further rounds. Points are also awarded to those who review GAs, FAs and FLs.

With the exception of Israel, all West Asian countries are listed as developing countries for the purposes of this contest, so articles related to them are all eligible to be submitted for points. Yemen is listed as a least-developed country and Yemen-related submissions get a 1.5x multiplier. I encourage everyone here to sign up and compete with editors from around the world to create high-quality content about West Asia!

Append your name to the DCWC signup page today!
