Write for the Rights Nigeria 2022/Participants

How to register[edit]

All you have to do to join the contest is to add your username below. To register, please follow the format of the Example below. Also, take a look at our scoring system below. Please add the hashtag #WriteforrightsNigeria in your edit summary, to make it easy for us to find your contributions.

You are responsible for counting your own points. Here's how to do it:

+1 point for each image added to a Wikipedia article about LGBT+ in any language.
+5 point for each new translation of a Wikipedia article about LGBT+ to any language.
+10 point for every new LGBT+ article created on English Wikipedia.

The points are cumulative.

The organizers have the final say in the scoring of the contributions, and will clarify the rules and points if needed.

Please remember[edit]

The points are simply here to make this more fun. Even if you do not join the Challenge to win we would love to learn about your work after the event, so please highlight it here. Your contribution is valuable in itself and with each edit you help make Wikipedia better.

If you are a new Wikipedia editor, first of all, welcome! We suggest that you take a look at Wikipedia:Translation and the Wikipedia:Introduction. That will make it easier to get going! When you start writing, the Manual of Style might be of help. These links go to Wikipedia in English, but all these pages are available in many languages. When you visit them, please have a look on the left-hand side (under "Languages") and see if they exist in your language as well. Every language version of Wikipedia is unique, with its own community and its own conventions, so it's good to have a look at the rules.

Contributing to Wikipedia is easier now than ever before and you don't really have to learn any code! Please have a look at Wikipedia:VisualEditor for more information.
