Feminism and Folklore 2025: Important Updates for Organizers & Jury
[edit]Hello Community Organizers and Jury,
Thank you for organising Feminism and Folklore writing competition on your wiki. Feminism and Folklore is the largest Wikipedia contest organized by community members. We congratulate you in joining and celebrating our cultural heritage and promoting gender equality on Wikipedia.
To encourage boost for the contributions of the participants, we're offering prizes for Feminism and Folklore local prizes. Each Wikipedia will have three local winners:
*First Prize: $25 USD
*Second Prize: $20 USD
*Best Jury Article: $15 USD
All this will be in gift voucher format only.
Prizes will only be given to users who have more than 5 accepted articles. No prizes will be given for users winning below 5 accepted articles.
Kindly inform your local community regarding these prizes and post them on the local project page
The Best Jury Article will be chosen by the jury based on how unique the article is aligned with the theme. The jury will review all submissions and decide the winner together, making sure it's fair. These articles will also be featured on our social media handles.
We're also providing internet and childcare support to the first 75 organizers and Jury members for those who request for it. Remember, only 75 organizers will get this support, and it's given on a first-come, first-served basis. The registration form will close after 75 registrations, and the deadline is '''March 5, 2025'''. This support is optional and not compulsory, so if you're interested, fill out the form [[1]]
Each organizer/jury who gets support will receive $40 USD in gift voucher format, even if they're involved in more than one wiki. No dual support will be provided if you have signed up in more than one language. This support is meant to appreciate your volunteer support for the contest.
We also invite all organizers and jury members to join us for Advocacy session on Saturday, Feb 28, 2025. This session will help you understand the jury process for both contests and give you a chance to ask questions. More details are on.
