Welcome to the DCWC!
[edit]
Brunnaiz, for the second running of the Developing Countries WikiContest, it is now open for submissions. Welcome to the contest! You can now list your work at your submissions page to earn points. The coordinators have addressed some of the queries at the last contest and we are hopeful that it'll turn out great for you—yes, you! If you haven't done so already, please review the following:
- New to Wikipedia? Many experienced editors are part of this contest and willing to help; feel free to ask questions on the talk page.
- Got open nominations? List them at the review requests sidebar.
- Looking for a topic to work on? Check out suggested articles and eligible reviews. Remember, reviews now award 10 points!
- Not sure if your article qualifies? See the scoring rules for more information or contact a coordinator.
- Know someone else who might be interested? Sign-ups remain open throughout the contest, so don't hesitate to invite other editors!
On behalf of the coordinators, we hope you enjoy participating and wish you the best of luck! If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page or ask one of the coordinators: Arconning (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).

- @TechnoSquirrel69: Hi! Sorry, I do have a question because I can't seem to wrap my head around the system for submitting new articles. I recently drafted an article about an Argentinian-Brazilian film, but I don't know how to let you know formally and whether it's a requirement for it to be a good article/Did You Know article to count in the contest. Thank you beforehand for your help and have a nice day. -- Brunnaiz (talk) 17:20, 31 July 2025 (UTC)
- Welcome again to the contest, Brunnaiz! The way you earn points in the contest is to submit articles after they've been through one of the venues mentioned in § Scores of the scoring rules. For an article to be eligible to be a good article or appear at Did you know?, it needs to be in mainspace, so that would be the first step. You could then nominate it at DYK, and if the article appears on the Main Page, you would then list it at your submissions page. I hope I answered your question, but please let me know if you'd like me to elaborate on something. Good luck! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 18:18, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

DCWC closing update
[edit]Two weeks ago, the 2025 Developing Countries WikiContest came to a close! After three months of stiff competition at the top of the leaderboard, we have our winners.
vigilantcosmicpenguin (submissions), continuing his work on covering abortion in Africa, comes in third with 692 points.
simongraham (submissions) comes in second with 763 points, largely from a slew of good articles about jumping spiders. And returning to the podium for the second year in a row,
BeanieFan11 (submissions) takes the Gold Belt Buckle with a mind-boggling 946 points from his series of articles on sportpersons. Congratulations to our winners!
Amazingly, the award for the most countries covered goes to both
BeanieFan11 (submissions) and simongraham (submissions), who each submitted articles under 30 flags!
BeanieFan11 (submissions) also wins for writing the most quality articles (16 good articles). For submitting 16 articles related to El Salvador,
PizzaKing13 (submissions) wins the award for most submissions under one country. The award for most submissions related to women goes to both Spookyaki (submissions) (7 biographies about women) and
vigilantcosmicpenguin (submissions) (21 related articles). And for the second year, simongraham (submissions) wins for the most reviews, having submitted 21!
Among the participants' contributions were 2 FAs, 5 FLs, 124 GAs, and an uncounted number of DYKs, ITNs, and reviews of every kind! Regardless of your level of participation, every contestant can be proud to have contributed towards a major step in countering the systemic bias on Wikipedia. Every year, millions of readers and editors around the globe use Wikipedia to educate themselves and communicate with others about parts of the world that often receive less attention than they deserve.

Gil Pratsobrerroca i Febrer moved to draftspace
[edit]Thanks for your contributions to Gil Pratsobrerroca i Febrer. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and after searching online in Catalan, I am uncertain that sufficient coverage in reliable sources exists. I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Boynamedsue (talk) 07:39, 20 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Boynamedsue: Could you specify what type/quantity of sources it needs? As far as I can tell, there are sources covering all his career and his early life. I don't really understand what else is needed. -- Brunnaiz (talk) 23:26, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
- Hi Brunnaiz, thanks for the ping. We are looking for about two paragraphs about the subject in two national level sources. For Catalan sources that would mean press that can be bought, or that is consumed, in most of the Catalan-speaking regions, or books or reliable websites. I have no problems with Spanish language stuff like Vanguardia or El Periodico, though you could technically make the case they were regional, as they are fairly freely available in Madrid and have significant national weight. In interviews, the only thing that counts is the parts where the source talks about the subject, not the question and answer.Boynamedsue (talk) 03:32, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

DCWC August update
[edit]The 2026 Developing Countries WikiContest has been running for a month now, so let's check in with the competition so far!
As of the time of writing, our top contestants are:
Vanderwaalforces (submissions) ahead of the pack with 715 points, with two FAs and many GAs on the monarchs of the Kingdom of Benin;- Simongraham (submissions) with 291 points, mostly with GAs on jumping spiders, alongside various GAN and FAC reviews;

These competitors are in the lead, but if past experience is any indication, big shake-ups might still await us in the contest. If you're looking for a way to boost your position, we got a table of review requests from fellow participants—you can rack up a lot of points through reviews, and it might just convince others to review your own nominations! You can also look through the eligible reviews page to find other articles to review, with highlights for articles eligible for the 1.5× multiplier. The coordinators would like to thank Jaguarnik (submissions) for his work to keep this page up to date.
Thank you so much for all your work in the contest so far, dear participants, and keep on the good fight against systemic bias on our wiki! Have any questions?
