Hi! This is User:Eugene Ormandy, a member of Toumon Wikipedian Club Japan. I’m very happy to announce that Wikimedia Japan, Malaysia, and Turkey Friendship Editing Month September 2024 has started!
What is it?
It is a Wikimedia editing campaign during September 2024. In the campaign, participants contribute to Wikimedia projects about something related to Japan, Malaysia, or Turkey.
There are no strict rules! If you are interested in this activity, don’t hesitate to add your name to MetaWiki [[Wikimedia Japan-Malaysia Friendship/Wikimedia Japan, Malaysia, and Turkey Friendship Editing Month September 2024]] and edit! It doesn’t matter which countries you live or which languages you use.
History
This campaign is for the one year anniversary of Wikimedia Japan-Malaysia Friendship and Wikimedia Japan-Türkiye Friendship. For these projects, various events such as a Japan-themed editathon at Istanbul Bilgi University and simultaneous editathons in Japan and Malaysia, have been implemented.
In addition, because of the contribution of the projects, Caner, one of the organizers from Turkey, was selected as one of the Wikimedian of the Year 2024 winners! (Needless to say, it is just one of the reasons — Caner achieved a lot of things!) To celebrate the achievements and strengthen our friendship more and more, we decided to hold editing month.
Flexible activities
We welcome flexible activities for the editing month! For example, we already had an online meetup on 1 September 2024 and we will write collaborative Diff posts. Moreover, I will join the CEE Meeting 2024 in Istanbul on 20-22 September from Japan.
For future
I hope this editing month strengthen the friendship between the three countries and encourage global Wikimedia Movement. If you are interested in this project, don’t hesitate to join!
