Thanks for your comments on <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Featured_list_candidates/List_of_space_telescopes" title="Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of space telescopes">Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of space telescopes</a>. I'm replying here as that page seems to have been archived now... </p><p>I agree that adding some history to the page would be good, but I'm not a historian, and plain don't know it... </p><p>As for numbers: I could probably find the number of satellites currently in orbit, but it would take a while - I'd have to try to find out whether each of the satellites is still up there or not. Active is easier, but I'm not 100% confident that it would be the correct number - some satellites have possibly ended, but haven't said, and I occasionally find ones I missed (e.g. PAMELA which I added yesterday). It would also have to be updated fairly often (~ once a month). </p><p>What happens to terminated satellites is easier: they stay up there until their orbit decays and they fall back to Earth, when they burn up; or for those at <a href="/wiki/Lagrangian_point" class="mw-redirect" title="Lagrangian point">Lagrange 2</a>, they'll just stay there for a few million years until their orbit gets disturbed. I guess that could be added, so long as I can find a reference for it, but I'm not sure that it would fit in... </p><p>Having said all of that, I'll keep your comments in mind, and will try to modify the list in the future to accommodate some of your suggestions. </p><p>Thanks again. <a href="/wiki/User:Mike_Peel" title="User:Mike Peel">Mike Peel</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Mike_Peel" title="User talk:Mike Peel">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Eklipse#c-Mike_Peel-2008-03-10T18:35:00.000Z-Re:_List_of_space_telescopes" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:35, 10 March 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Mike_Peel-2008-03-10T18:35:00.000Z-Re:_List_of_space_telescopes"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-03-10T18:35:00.000Z","author":"Mike Peel","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Mike_Peel-2008-03-10T18:35:00.000Z-Re:_List_of_space_telescopes","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Mike_Peel-2008-03-10T18:35:00.000Z-Re:_List_of_space_telescopes"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONDESKTOP__{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z","replies":["c-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics"],"text":"WikiProject Lists of basic topics","linkableTitle":"WikiProject Lists of basic topics"}--><h2 id="WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics" data-mw-thread-id="h-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z"></span>WikiProject Lists of basic topics<span data-mw-comment-end="h-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Eklipse&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: WikiProject Lists of basic topics"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z","replies":["c-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics"]}}--><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><!--__DTLATESTCOMMENTTHREAD__{"id":"c-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics","timestamp":"2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z"}__--><!--__DTCOMMENTCOUNT__1__--><!--__DTAUTHORCOUNT__1__--></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONMOBILE__{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z","replies":["c-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics"],"text":"WikiProject Lists of basic topics","linkableTitle":"WikiProject Lists of basic topics"}--></div></div></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-The_Transhumanist-2008-03-25T05:27:00.000Z-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics"></span>I noticed you joined this WikiProject.

In contrast, <a href="/wiki/History_of_Kuwait" title="History of Kuwait">History of Kuwait</a>, which is featured and is presently on the main page of the Arabic Wikipedia, has that star in the top left corner.

I only just saw it!! As you can see my talk page gets a fair bit of traffic. Yes I'll try to help develop few. I've drawn up the bones for all the other templates at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Lebanon/District_templates" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Lebanon/District templates">Wikipedia:WikiProject Lebanon/District templates</a> . If you and WP:Lebanon and User:George etc could develop them and add links to each one I think the condition of Lebanese articles would really improve. I;m sure the template could be filled out a bit with notable articles related to each district. I'll try to add what I can. At present I have Mexican towns on the go and trying to sort them out.

For example, one task would be adding the population figure on each page. </p><p>The awards images are almost done, and the pages themselves need a couple sections completed before they can be moved to the article namespace and the competition can begin. </p><p>We could sure use your help... </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Track_down_the_administrative_divisions_types_for_each_country" data-mw-thread-id="h-Track_down_the_administrative_divisions_types_for_each_country-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics_2"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Track_down_the_administrative_divisions_types_for_each_country-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics_2"></span>Track down the administrative divisions types for each country<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Track_down_the_administrative_divisions_types_for_each_country-WikiProject_Lists_of_basic_topics_2"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Eklipse&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Track down the administrative divisions types for each country"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The first task is on the "Administrative divisions of" sections. </p><p>In each of these sections, there's an initial hierarchical list of the division types in that country, followed by subheadings for each of the types. Unfortunately, the types listed are those from the template I used to create these pages, and they aren't accurate for many countries. </p><p>The defaults that I used were: </p> <ul><li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Provinces_of_x&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Provinces of x (page does not exist)">Provinces of x</a> <ul><li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Districts_of_x&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Districts of x (page does not exist)">Districts of x</a> <ul><li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Municipalities_of_x&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Municipalities of x (page does not exist)">Municipalities of x</a></li></ul></li></ul></li></ul> <p>For each country, change the links to the names of the administrative divisions for that country, adding more links if there are more than 3 division types. Those that are subdivisions of another type are indented under the parent type. In most cases, you would leave municipalities in place, because that's a generic name for "city". We'll blue-link those later. (Blue-linking is creating a redirect so that a link turns blue - that way, the link remains standardized on all the pages in the set). </p><p>Also change the subheadings in the same section to match the initial list, including the "main article" links presented just below each subheading. </p><p>To find out what the administrative divisions are for a country so you can add them, try looking on the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Government_of_x&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Government of x (page does not exist)">government of x</a> or <a href="/w/index.php?title=Politics_of_x&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Politics of x (page does not exist)">politics of x</a> pages for that country, and on the country's main article as well. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Add_the_administrative_divisions_to_their_respective_subsections" data-mw-thread-id="h-Add_the_administrative_divisions_to_their_respective_subsections-Track_down_the_administrative_divisions_types_for_each_country"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Add_the_administrative_divisions_to_their_respective_subsections-Track_down_the_administrative_divisions_types_for_each_country"></span>Add the administrative divisions to their respective subsections<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Add_the_administrative_divisions_to_their_respective_subsections-Track_down_the_administrative_divisions_types_for_each_country"></span></h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Eklipse&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Add the administrative divisions to their respective subsections"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>For each country, find the list of administrative division for each type, and add them under that type's subheading. </p><p>For example, copy and paste the provinces listed at <a href="/wiki/Provinces_of_Angola" title="Provinces of Angola">Provinces of Angola</a> under the "Provinces of Angola" subheading on that country's list page. </p><p>See the countries listed at <a href="/wiki/Lists_of_basic_topics" class="mw-redirect" title="Lists of basic topics">Lists of basic topics</a> for examples of how this has been done for those.

I support its deletion myself. But this has given me an idea. Do you think it would make sense to have a set of categories called "Age x deaths," all in a parent category called "Deaths by age?" That seems like a better idea. This way, there would be no worry where to draw the line as to what age is "significant" as an age of death, and all ages people live to can possibly be included. There would be no need for one person to create all these categories in one day - they could be built gradually over time. We already have categories like <a href="/wiki/Category:1949_deaths" title="Category:1949 deaths">1949 deaths</a>. Why can't we do the same with age?

One was that all pages of this type be required to have the standard name - this proposal failed, which means any editor can change the name of any of the pages on a whim.

When I renamed all the pages previously, only one page got any complaints (opera), but I reverted them all based on that (a big mistake), and posted the proposals.

(WikiProject Lists of basic topics has been renamed to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Outline_of_knowledge" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Outline of knowledge">Wikipedia:WikiProject Outline of knowledge</a>). The geography branch is in the form of a set of outline pages including one for every present-day nation or state in the world. That's 247 pages! This has been a huge undertaking, involving dozens of editors using advanced wiki-tools. </p><p>These pages have come a long way, and it won't be long before the whole set is complete enough to be moved to article space into the encyclopedia for the benefit of all. But there's still a lot of work left, and we could use all the help we can get! </p><p>While some editors prefer to work on one country at a time, most of our team members take on a particular entry and complete it across all the pages. This has come to be our standard type of task. To facilitate this process, we apply tools such as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AWB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AWB">AutoWikiBrowser</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:LINKY" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:LINKY">Linky</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikEd" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WikEd">WikEd</a>, all of which can be used to process a large number of pages in various (direct or indirect) ways. </p><p>In case you are interested in what we've been up to, here's a progress report: </p><p>Lately, development has been slow but continuous: </p><p>On our recruiting initiative, <a href="/wiki/User:Penubag/graphics" title="User:Penubag/graphics">Penubag</a> has done a fantastic job on the images for the awards we'll be using for our project's collaborations and contests. We now have 3 awards: a medal, a trophy, and a race ribbon. They all look <i>tight</i>. The trophy needs a small adjustment, but other than that, all 3 award images are complete and ready to use to create awards with. </p><p>Spartaz has warned us of (threatened to take) G4 (speedy delete) action if we run a competition that resembles the previously deleted Awards Center page. So whatever we do, any contests we run must differ substantially from the methods used there. </p><p>One type of competition I've been exploring is "edit racing". I'm in the process of working the bugs out of this concept - the first race didn't work as expected - you see, because we only had an award for first place, so the opponent didn't think it worthwhile to continue once it was clear who the winner would be. And since editors are in different time zones and usually need to start the race at different times, we need to base winning on personal start times - he who completes his assigned edits in the least time (rather than first), wins. And last but not least is quality control. What good is racing if the participants' edits are ripe with errors? So I'll be exploring possibilities such as using a referee (assigned to oversee a particular race), having participants watching each other for errors to knock them back, etc. I'm not sure yet. </p><p><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Rich_Farmbrough" title="User talk:Rich Farmbrough">Rich Farmbrough</a> has been applying his bot expertise to filling in blanks in the country outlines (the population and area entries). I'm amazed at the number of edits he pumps out each day on a myriad of projects - ours makes up but a small time slice of his activity, and yet he has saved us many hours of manual work. Perhaps we should look into how he gets so much done. :) </p><p><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Zlerman" title="User talk:Zlerman">Zlerman</a> has chosen to work on specific outlines, and has taken on <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Topic_outline/Drafts/Topic_outline_of_Azerbaijan" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Topic outline/Drafts/Topic outline of Azerbaijan">Azerbaijan</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Topic_outline/Drafts/Topic_outline_of_Tajikistan" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Topic outline/Drafts/Topic outline of Tajikistan">Tajikistan</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Topic_outline/Drafts/Topic_outline_of_Turkmenistan" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Topic outline/Drafts/Topic outline of Turkmenistan">Turkmenistan</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Topic_outline/Drafts/Topic_outline_of_Uzbekistan" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Topic outline/Drafts/Topic outline of Uzbekistan">Uzbekistan</a>. He also has been keen on noticing and reporting design issues pertaining to the whole set of country outlines. Keep up the good work! </p><p><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Highfields" title="User talk:Highfields">Highfields</a> is in charge of capitals, adding them to all the outlines. He is also our first race winner. Check out the award on his user pages. </p><p>In case you didn't know, this project has expanded to include work on any and all sets of pages represented on the country outlines. Once the set of country outlines go live (in article space), traffic will likely increase for all the links included on them. The quality and usefulness of those pages will reflect heavily on the country outlines. The outlines, which are essentially lists of links, are only as good as the links they present, and therefore we've branched out to solve the biggest problems with those as well. So far, we've taken on: </p> <ul><li>The creation of disambiguation pages for country adjectivals ("<a href="/wiki/German" class="mw-disambig" title="German">German</a>", "<a href="/wiki/French" class="mw-disambig" title="French">French</a>", "<a href="/wiki/Taiwanese" class="mw-disambig" title="Taiwanese">Taiwanese</a>", etc.) We're about half done with these.</li> <li>Wikifying the <a href="/wiki/CIA_World_Factbook" class="mw-redirect" title="CIA World Factbook">CIA World Factbook</a> statistics on the "demographics of" country pages. We've been renaming those sections to provide a key string that AWB can use for targetting (for skipping and filtering). Once that's done, we'll be able to break the clean-up down into simple AWB search/replace tasks, because we'll be able to target just those pages that include the CIA stuff.</li> <li>We've also been renaming the "Cuisine of" articles to their adjectival forms ("Chinese cuisine", "Italian cuisine", etc.), for consistency and because the adjective-based terms are generally the most commonly-used names for those cuisine types.</li></ul> <p><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Blackadam2" title="User talk:Blackadam2">Blackadam2</a> and <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Thehelpfulone" title="User talk:Thehelpfulone">Thehelpfulone</a> have been helping out with the "demographics of" pages mentioned above. </p><p>And we have a couple speed addicts (addicted to wiki-velocity, not drugs)... </p><p>Both <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Robert_Skyhawk" title="User talk:Robert Skyhawk">Robert Skyhawk</a> and <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Thehelpfulone" title="User talk:Thehelpfulone">Thehelpfulone</a> prefer (and excel at) simple AWB search/replaces. Robert hasn't actually joined our team yet, but he has been helping out quite a bit from the sidelines (via the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AWB/Tasks" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AWB/Tasks">WP:AWB/Tasks</a> page. Unfortunately, there has recently been a non-AWB chore that has been holding things up on the AWB front - an edit to all the headings which had to be reverted before too many new edits were made, because any new edits would make the reversion more difficult. The headings have been restored, so now the way is clear for AWB operations, and there are many search/replace tasks in the queue. AWB assignments have started again! </p><p>There's a similar bottleneck on the "Demographics of" pages (the "keying" mentioned above), but that's almost cleared too. :) </p><p>With my internet access somewhat crippled as of late, I've been finding it difficult to keep up with you guys. However, I expect to be accessing a Linky-capable workstation on a faster server (I'm on it right now, as you can probably tell from my contributions list for the past couple of days), and so I should really pick up speed. Feels goooooood. :) </p><p>Recruiting has been a bit slow (but steady), due in part to my crippled access, and because we've been waiting for the images for the awards to be completed. I expect the team to grow more rapidly as the bottlenecks are removed. </p><p>Well that's what's been happenin', and here's what's in the pipeline... </p><p>We've got a long list of entries that need to be completed across all the outlines and related page sets. If you would like to dive in with advanced wiki-tools to process this whole set of pages on one or more tasks, drop me a note! </p><p>As for me, I'm about to begin work on a set of lists that corresponds to all the standard links on the country outlines, and these will be presented on the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Topic_outline_of_countries&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Topic outline of countries (page does not exist)">Topic outline of countries</a> which will be organized exactly like the country outlines. Aside from being an extremely useful navigation aid, it will allow editors to easily see the state of country coverage on Wikipedia - each list will be one link-set, and each list can be used with our wiki-tools to process the pages listed. I'll provide you with a link once I get up to speed on this. </p><p>In the meantime, keep in touch! </p><p>Cheers, </p><p><a href="/wiki/User_talk:The_Transhumanist" title="User talk:The Transhumanist"><i>The Transhumanist</i></a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Eklipse#c-The_Transhumanist-2009-02-06T00:53:00.000Z-Outline_of_Knowledge_/_Geography_WikiProject_Collaboration:_Country_outlines" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:53, 6 February 2009 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-The_Transhumanist-2009-02-06T00:53:00.000Z-Outline_of_Knowledge_/_Geography_WikiProject_Collaboration:_Country_outlines"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2009-02-06T00:53:00.000Z","author":"The Transhumanist","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-The_Transhumanist-2009-02-06T00:53:00.000Z-Outline_of_Knowledge_\/_Geography_WikiProject_Collaboration:_Country_outlines","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-The_Transhumanist-2009-02-06T00:53:00.000Z-Outline_of_Knowledge_/_Geography_WikiProject_Collaboration:_Country_outlines"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONDESKTOP__{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-Zaher1988-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Thank_you!!-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z","replies":["c-Zaher1988-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z-Thank_you!!","c-Slakr-2009-03-24T02:27:00.000Z-Thank_you!!","c-Mangojuice-2009-03-23T19:59:00.000Z-Thank_you!!"],"text":"Thank you!!","linkableTitle":"Thank you!!"}--><h2 id="Thank_you!!" data-mw-thread-id="h-Thank_you!!-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z"><span id="Thank_you.21.21"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Thank_you!!-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z"></span>Thank you!!<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Thank_you!!-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Eklipse&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: Thank you!!"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-Zaher1988-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Thank_you!!-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z","replies":["c-Zaher1988-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z-Thank_you!!","c-Slakr-2009-03-24T02:27:00.000Z-Thank_you!!","c-Mangojuice-2009-03-23T19:59:00.000Z-Thank_you!!"]}}--><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"><!--__DTLATESTCOMMENTTHREAD__{"id":"c-Slakr-2009-03-24T02:29:00.000Z-Mangojuice-2009-03-23T19:59:00.000Z","timestamp":"2009-03-24T02:29:00.000Z"}__--><!--__DTCOMMENTCOUNT__4__--><!--__DTAUTHORCOUNT__3__--></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"><!--__DTSUBSCRIBEBUTTONMOBILE__{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-Zaher1988-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Thank_you!!-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z","replies":["c-Zaher1988-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z-Thank_you!!","c-Slakr-2009-03-24T02:27:00.000Z-Thank_you!!","c-Mangojuice-2009-03-23T19:59:00.000Z-Thank_you!!"],"text":"Thank you!!","linkableTitle":"Thank you!!"}--></div></div></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Zaher1988-2009-02-24T10:09:00.000Z-Thank_you!!"></span>Thank you for the barnstar, appreciated.

working! </p><p><i><b>The good news is</b></i> that there's growing support for outlines, and there are more editors than ever editing them! </p><p><i><b>The bad news is</b></i> that the complainers are disproportionately represented on the project's various talk pages. While many editors work diligently on the front end, a handful of complainers are trying to tear down the project behind the scenes. Fortunately, barely enough supporters have been watching those pages that no consensus for moving or merging the outlines has succeeded.

The <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Asia/The_10,000_Challenge" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge">Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge</a> has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:The_10,000_Challenge" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge">Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Africa/The_10,000_Challenge" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge">Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge</a>. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:The_1000_Challenge_(Nordic)" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic)">Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic)</a>. For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Africa/The_Africa_Destubathon" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon">Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon</a> which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --<a href="/wiki/User:Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao" title="User:Ser Amantio di Nicolao"><span style="font-family:Old English Text MT;">Ser Amantio di Nicolao</span></a><sup><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao" title="User talk:Ser Amantio di Nicolao"><i>Che dicono a Signa?</i></a></sup><sub><a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao" title="Special:Contributions/Ser Amantio di Nicolao"><b>Lo dicono a Signa.</b></a></sub> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Eklipse#c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2016-10-20T01:55:00.000Z-Asian_10,000_Challenge_invite" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:55, 20 October 2016 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2016-10-20T01:55:00.000Z-Asian_10,000_Challenge_invite"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-10-20T01:55:00.000Z","author":"Ser Amantio di Nicolao","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2016-10-20T01:55:00.000Z-Asian_10,000_Challenge_invite","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Ser_Amantio_di_Nicolao-2016-10-20T01:55:00.000Z-Asian_10,000_Challenge_invite"></span> </p> <!-- NewPP limit report Parsed by mw‐web.codfw.main‐688fc9465‐gm8rb Cached time: 20241125160338 Cache expiry: 864000 Reduced expiry: true Complications: [show‐toc] DiscussionTools time usage: 0.076 seconds CPU time usage: 0.314 seconds Real time usage: 0.399 seconds Preprocessor visited node count: 1185/1000000 Post‐expand include size: 11145/2097152 bytes Template argument size: 2465/2097152 bytes Highest expansion depth: 11/100 Expensive parser function count: 0/500 Unstrip recursion depth: 0/20 Unstrip post‐expand size: 1162/5000000 bytes Lua time usage: 0.026/10.000 seconds Lua memory usage: 1049572/52428800 bytes Number of Wikibase entities loaded: 0/400 --> <!-- Transclusion expansion time report (%,ms,calls,template) 100.00% 91.301 1 -total 28.39% 25.919 1 Template:Main 24.37% 22.248 2 Template:La 18.61% 16.989 1 Template:Tb 18.25% 16.661 4 Template:Encodefirst 13.75% 12.558 1 Template:Wikipedia_ads 12.73% 11.626 2 Template:Umbox 5.09% 4.645 1 Template:Tl 3.38% 3.087 1 Template:Talkback 2.13% 1.944 5 Template:Done --> <!-- Saved in parser cache with key enwiki:pcache:idhash:15952445-0!canonical and timestamp 20241125160338 and revision id 1257436207.
