Welcome!

Congratulations on the creation of Kʋsaal Wikipedia! However, this Wikipedia needs your help to get started;

• Please check that all pages are imported from Wikimedia incubator.
• Please check that there are no other problems with the wiki settings. Of course, statistics will not work properly now. Or, some features of the visual editor may not work. This usually resolves automatically within 2 weeks.

Thank you for your efforts, and congratulations once again. I look forward to your cooperation :D --Sotiale (pian'am) 15:20, 14 Sigsaa/Nwadisayuobʋ 2024 (GMT)

Feminism and Folklore 2025: Important Updates for Organizers & Jury

Hello Community Organizers and Jury,

Thank you for organising Feminism and Folklore writing competition on your wiki. Feminism and Folklore is the largest Wikipedia contest organized by community members. We congratulate you in joining and celebrating our cultural heritage and promoting gender equality on Wikipedia.

To encourage boost for the contributions of the participants, we're offering prizes for Feminism and Folklore local prizes. Each Wikipedia will have three local winners:

1. First Prize: $25 USD

1. Second Prize: $20 USD

1. Best Jury Article: $15 USD

All this will be in gift voucher format only.

Prizes will only be given to users who have more than 5 accepted articles. No prizes will be given for users winning below 5 accepted articles.

Kindly inform your local community regarding these prizes and post them on the local project page

The Best Jury Article will be chosen by the jury based on how unique the article is aligned with the theme. The jury will review all submissions and decide the winner together, making sure it's fair. These articles will also be featured on our social media handles.

We're also providing internet and childcare support to the first 75 organizers and Jury members for those who request for it. Remember, only 75 organizers will get this support, and it's given on a first-come, first-served basis. The registration form will close after 75 registrations, and the deadline is '''March 5, 2025'''. This support is optional and not compulsory, so if you're interested, fill out the Form

Each organizer/jury who gets support will receive $40 USD in gift voucher format, even if they're involved in more than one wiki. No dual support will be provided if you have signed up in more than one language. This support is meant to appreciate your volunteer support for the contest.

We also invite all organizers and jury members to join us for Advocacy session on Saturday, Feb 28, 2025. This session will help you understand the jury process for both contests and give you a chance to ask questions. More details are on Event:Telling untold stories: How to document gendered narratives in Folklore on Wikipedia - Meta

Let's celebrate our different cultures and work towards gender equality on Wikipedia!

Best regards,

Stella and Tiven

Invitation to Organise Feminism and Folklore 2026

Please help translate to your language

Dear Awinimi,

Hope you’re doing well. I’m reaching out with some exciting updates about Feminism and Folklore 2026. Thanks to the amazing support from organizers like you, the campaign has grown into one of the biggest and most collaborative initiatives in the entire Wikimedia movement. Your efforts have played a huge part in that, and we’re truly grateful. We’re hoping to make the 2026 edition even larger and even more community-driven.

We’d be very happy to have you join again as an organizer. The sign-up process is simple this year:

1. Create your local event page (you can copy from the sample)
2. Set up your Fountain or CampWiz campaign.
3. Add your campaign link to the 2026 registration list

The focus of the campaign remains the same - creating or expanding Wikipedia content on feminism, women’s issues, gender topics, and diverse folk traditions from around the world. International and local prizes will continue as before.

Special Prize for 2026:

Every participant will receive a Wikipedia 25 digital postcard as a token of appreciation for contributing to the global movement during Wikipedia’s 25th anniversary year. This will be sent to all contributors who take part in the campaign.

We’re also adding an optional one-time internet and childcare support for organizers who may need extra assistance to carry out their local campaign. This is entirely optional and meant to help those who might otherwise face challenges in organizing. More details will be shared soon.

If you’re unable to organize this year, no worries at all - please feel free to share the invitation with others in your community who might be interested.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss plans, you can reach us on the talk page or by email.

Looking forward to collaborating again,

Wiki Loves Folklore International Team
