Invitation to Organize Feminism and Folklore 2026
Dear Wiki Community,
We are pleased to invite Wikimedia communities, affiliates, and independent contributors to organize the
Feminism and Folklore 2026
writing competition on your local Wikipedia.
The international campaign will run from
1 February to 31 March 2026
and aims to improve coverage of feminism, women’s histories, gender-related topics, and folk culture across Wikipedia projects.
About the Campaign
Feminism and Folklore
is a global writing initiative that complements the
Wiki Loves Folklore
photography competition. While Wiki Loves Folklore focuses on visual documentation, this writing campaign addresses the
gender gap on Wikipedia
by improving encyclopedic content related to folk culture and marginalized voices.
What Can Participants Write About?
Communities can contribute by creating, expanding, or translating articles related to:
Folk festivals, rituals, and celebrations
Folk dances, music, and traditional performances
Women and queer figures in folklore
Women in mythology and oral traditions
Women warriors, witches, and witch-hunting narratives
Fairy tales, folk stories, and legends
Folk games, sports, and cultural practices
Participants may work from curated article lists or generate new article suggestions using campaign tools.
How to Sign Up as an Organizer
Organizers are requested to complete the following steps to register their community:
Create a local project page on your wiki
(see sample)
Set up the campaign using the
CampWiz
tool
Prepare a local article list and clearly mention:
Campaign timeline
Local and international prizes
Request a site notice from local administrators
(see sample)
Add your local project page and CampWiz link to the
Meta project page
Campaign Tools
The Wiki Loves Folklore Tech Team has introduced tools to support organizers and participants:
Article List Generator by Topic
– Helps identify articles available on English Wikipedia but missing in your local language Wikipedia. The tool allows customized filters and provides downloadable article lists in CSV and wikitable formats.
CampWiz
– Enables communities to manage writing campaigns effectively, including jury-based evaluation. This will be the third year CampWiz is officially used for Feminism and Folklore.
Both tools are now available for use in the campaign.

Request for Comment: VisualEditor automatic reference names

Hi, I’m Johannes from
Wikimedia Deutschland
’s
Technical Wishes team
. Apologies for writing in English.
Please help translate to your language
! We are considering to work on
Community Wishlist/W17: Improve VE references' automatic names and reuse
. This has been a long-term issue for wikitext editors (see e.g.
en:WP:VisualEditor/Named references
) which has been among the top-voted wishes in several
Community Wishlist Surveys
, e.g.
2017
2019
2022
or
2023
We would like your input on the
solutions
proposed on our project page:
m:WMDE Technical Wishes/References/VisualEditor automatic reference names
. We are considering several options, which can be combined if desired by the community.
Changing the default pattern for automatically generated reference names (currently
":n"
, e.g.
":0"
":1"
...) to use the
reference type
instead (e.g.
"book_reference-1"
).
Providing a simple mechanism for communities to configure a different default name.
Generating automatic reference names based on the
domain name
(if it’s a web citation).
Generating automatic reference names based on template parameters (e.g. "title" or "last"+"first") – defined by the community.
Feedback
takatā pūtake
Visit our project page
to read about our proposal in detail and share your thoughts
on metawiki
Please note
: We will only implement a solution if there’s clear consensus among the global community. Our intention is not to build the perfect solution, but to find a simple and lean one that alleviates the pain caused by auto generated names. We are aware that some experienced VisualEditor users might prefer an option to manually change reference names in VisualEditor, but such a UX intervention is difficult to achieve across reference types and thus out of scope for our team, we can only improve the auto-naming mechanism.
We are happy about suggestions for improving certain details of the proposed solutions. Any other feedback and alternative proposals are also welcome – even though it’s out of scope for us, it might still be relevant for future work on this topic.
Please support us interpreting consensus by clearly indicating your opinion (e.g. by using support/neutral/oppose templates). We are aware of
en:WP:NOTVOTE
, but given that we are facilitating this discussion with users from different wikis, potentially commenting in their native language, clearly indicating your position helps us avoid misunderstandings.
Thank you for participating!

Action Required: Update templates/modules for electoral maps (Migrating from P1846 to P14226)

Hello everyone,
This is a notice regarding an ongoing data migration on Wikidata that may affect your election-related templates and Lua modules (such as
Module:Itemgroup/list
).
The Change:
Currently, many templates pull electoral maps from Wikidata using the property
P1846
, combined with the qualifier
P180
Q19571328
We are migrating this data (across roughly 4,000 items) to a newly created, dedicated property:
P14226
What You Need To Do:
To ensure your templates and infoboxes do not break or lose their maps, please update your local code to fetch data from
P14226
instead of the old
P1846
P180
structure. A
list of pages
was generated using Wikimedia Global Search.
Deadline:
We are temporarily retaining the old data on
P1846
to allow for a smooth transition. However, to complete the data cleanup on Wikidata, the old
P1846
statements will be removed after
May 1, 2026
. Please update your modules and templates before this date to prevent any disruption to your wiki's election articles.
Let us know if you have any questions or need assistance with the query logic. Thank you for your help!
