Wikibooks/Cookbooks week
 | The following is a proposed Wikimedia event. The proposal is in the process of gathering consensus for adoption (which is not determined by counting votes) at its discussion page. |
The Cookbook week (CBW) is an annual event made to improve Wikibooks' cookbooks and share recipes of all countries. During a week, contributors are invited to contribute to Cookbooks in all languages.
Concept
[edit]During the first complete week of July, contributors are invited to improve the cookbooks in these ways:
- Add recipes of recipes of their countries
- Translate recipes of their Cookbooks in different languages
- Translate recipes of other Cookbooks in their language
- Add pictures on recipes from Commons and take pictures of meals
- Link recipes to Wikidata items
Rules
[edit]The CookBook week is not a contest, there is no committee or global rewards. Contributors just have to respect rules of Wikibooks.
Logo
[edit]A new logo is chosen by the community on Meta each year. It must be flat, in the Wikimedia's blue (#336699 in HEX), and have a relationship with food. Community is asked to choose logos from various cultures.
Rewards
[edit]Wikibooks' communities can rewards most invested contributors of the event
Statistics
[edit]Wikibooks are asked to count how many recipes they have before and after the event (you can do it with PetScan)
Announcement
[edit]CBW is announced two weeks before the beginning at the Village pump and on the community portal. A CentralNotice banner announce it two days before the beginning, and is left until last day of the event.
A central page will be created and marked for translation on Meta.
