The Developing Countries WikiContest Gold Belt Buckle
The Developing Countries WikiContest Gold Belt Buckle

WikiProject Belize, the Developing Countries WikiContest will be returning for a second year, and sign-ups are now open! The contest will run from 1 July to 30 September, and the objective remains the same: improve as many articles relating to developing countries as you can to help fight systemic bias on Wikipedia.

In other news, we have a new face on the coordinator team this year: last year's sixth-place finisher, Arconning (talk · contribs)! The coordinators would like to extend a sincere thanks to Ixtal (talk · contribs), who is leaving the team, without whom the contest would not exist. After feedback from contestants last year, the scoring rules are undergoing some modifications; the new rules and a summary of the changes made will be posted to the contest talk page shortly.

If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page, use the {{@DCWC coordinators}} template, or contact one of the coordinators: Arconning (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).

List stuff to do -

Last edit of lists = Asdfjrjjj (talk) 03:42, 25 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

End report (at least for now) –
Stuff done –
  • Basically redid the main proj page, mostly to declutter it, optimise for new arrivals, give a sense of scope at a glance, so on (ifl this minimal main page would be easier on new arrivals, easier to navigate),
  • added copy/content to main proj page,
  • created vars subpages, added copy/content to some of them,
  • tagged some members as inactive (Kaldari is retired, Aaronhumes hasn't edited since 2013, John Carter is on indefinite ban since 2018).
To do still –
  • add guidance (currently none),
  • set up new articles subpage,
  • maybe some other stuff from the WPs above.
Lmk if anything's not ok? Would appreciate feedback :)
Ps ifl we all oughtta watchlist /Requests and /To do, if possible?

It's unlikely to get much attention I'm afraid, it really needs editors in Belize to be working on it! John Carter started a lot of country projects but a lot of them were over optimistic. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:45, 25 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yh for sure, will still plough on though :) - Asdfjrjjj (talk) 18:59, 25 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
