Latvia report: Wikipedia reaches 80 000 articles[edit]

By Papuass

80 000 Wikipedia articles[edit]

The biggest event during November was local Wikipedia reaching 80 000 articles.

Wiki Loves Monuments winners published[edit]

This year it was run without prizes, so a less impressive number of images were uploaded, however numerous previously not covered monuments had images uploaded. One of participants uploaded plenty of castle mound pictures, helping to illustrate multiple articles without images. These 10 images were selected for international round:

  • Entrance of cinema "Splendid Palace" (formerly Kino Rīga) by Papuass

  • Vaivari, Asari, Melluži, Pumpuri, Jaundubulti summerhouse district by Forestermax

  • Dwelling house, Rīga by Papuass
