Great! I've added this contest to the page on French Wikipedia for the WikiConvention. In case you participate in these other iniciatives, you can also participate in this contest, but you have to list your articles also here. --Millars (talk) 11:08, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiquote[edit]

By chance I also created an article on Wikiquote. Should those count or not? --Lord Bumbury (talk) 17:09, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The focus of this contest was Wikipedia, and not the other projects. It's a pitty but I don't know if changing that was fair for all. --Millars (talk) 21:54, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Tag[edit]

Is here any tag for articles like #WikiLovesOlympics? And another thing is that how i count bytes? Sony dandiwal (talk) 04:11, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. You can use #WikiLovesTheOlympics in social netwoks. For the second question: when you see the history of the article, you can compare the bites it had before and after your editions. I imagine that there are some tools also, but I do it in that way. --Millars (talk) 21:31, 16 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

How to count points[edit]

I don't understand how to count the point i.e number of bytes for an article. We'll add more articles during the paralympic edit-a- thon that will be held during the French wikiconvention in Paris (21/08). More details on this page --LaMèreVeille (talk) 08:13, 16 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bonjour, à compter les points, aller à l'onglet Historique i. e. ici[1] "(8 937 octets)" ou vous pouvez utiliser la diff [2]. Beatley (talk) 19:02, 16 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, mais on compte tout seul ou il y a quelqu'un qui compte a nos place? Tournasol7 (talk) 21:28, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Bon jour. On doit compter tout seul, mais a la fin du concurs on revisera, alors, si quelqun a des dificultes, ne t'inquite pas parce qu'on fera le recompte. --Millars (talk) 11:50, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

End of the challenge[edit]

Hello everybody. I'll wait some days to let people update their lists. Then, I'll and other volunteers check the lists and the points and will write to the winners to collect the data and provide them their prizes. Thanks a lot for participating. I hope you have enjoyed and it is great to see how many articles about women and paralympics have been created to reduce those bias. --Millars (talk) 12:43, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The results were published in November, 2016, but I don't know if averybody knew them (all winners were contacted and they received the prizes). The final results are in this report. --Millars (talk) 12:48, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
