What is the purpose of the campaign? How will you measure the success of the campaign?[edit]

Description - The AfroCine Project, a new WikiProject focused on the cinema of Africa is running a Wikipedia contest in the months of October and November 2018, which is aimed at improving the coverage for film industries across Africa, the Caribbean and the diaspora. The main focus of this contest is to create new articles on African cinema (filmmakers, actors, history, films, etc) on Wikipedia in any language (including through translation). Having a central banner on Wikipedia will definitely give the needed publicity for this contest.

Metrics - achieving more than 500 articles in the contest!

Discussion[edit]

@Jamie Tubers: - Could you write a single line of text you'd like to be included in the banner? Short, succinct and to the point. Seddon (WMF) (talk) 13:33, 16 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
