French translation[edit]

Hello to you. I've my own team (alone for the moment) in the french version of the Wiki Loves Women/Writing Contest 2016. If anyone of you agrees, i'd like to translate in french, his already made english article : we don't have many time but it's ok. Please let me know (join my team There), i'll join yours). I think it could be fun like that, not ?

One article versus several articles[edit]

Hello

I have clarified in rules something that was unclear

Each team can only work on a many articles as they want, but they can only propose one article for the best article prize;

But writing several articles may help to get the best team prize or a special prize :)

Oh! That's a very helpful clarification, thank you.Penny Richards (talk) 19:34, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

15?[edit]

The contest is not clear. The title says "(at least) 15 biographies", yet the rules say only 1 article is to be nominated, and there's no mention of a 15 article minimum. Does a team have to create 15 articles or not? Greenman (talk) 21:01, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

sorry if it was unclear. Each team is welcome to write as many articles they want (the more the merrier !). Then propose your best one for the challenge of the best article. So not, you do not have to write 15 articles. Anthere (talk)

Article in Google news[edit]

@Anthere: This article, listing five black women for inclusion on Wikipedia turned up on my Google news search today. Your competition is making news.--Ipigott (talk) 13:34, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yup.

Sarah Kaisi (or shaa)
Maureen Ayité : I am actually not convinced at all that this one meets the notability guidelines. Anthere (talk)

I can probably improve the last one :) Anthere (talk)
