Kusaal Weekly Contest 2024

Weekly Contest aimed at enhancing the quality and comprehensiveness of Kusaal language articles on Wikipedia. Participants will compete to improve existing articles by adding references, internal and external links, relevant images, and creating Wikidata items.

Preserve and promote the Kusaal language and culture through digital platforms. Increase the quantity and quality of Kusaal language content available online. Foster a sense of community and collaboration among Kusaal language speakers.

Contest Mechanics

A pool of Kusaal language articles will be selected based on factors such as length, lack of references, and overall quality. Participants would have to work on the chosen article from the pool. They will then make improvements in the specified areas. Entries will be evaluated based on the quality of added references, relevance of images, accuracy of information, and overall improvement of the article.

Every week, from Mondays to Fridays. Results will be declared every Saturday.
