Hi! I am a student at the University of Sydney and currently enrolled in a course about writing on Wikipedia. I am currently writing in the stub article ' Disabled sports in Australia'. I am looking for any advice/suggestions as this is my first time writing on wikipedia. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beantownboys ( talk • contribs) 02:27, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

A year after the Performing Arts Aotearoa project started and as we are coming into winter (a busier editing time for many) here is an update.
The Performing Arts Aotearoa Wikiproject now lives on the WikiProject New Zealand page. /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:WikiProject_New_Zealand/Performing_Arts_Aotearoa
I have added new articles created as part of the Pacific Arts Aotearoa Wikiproject. These articles by new editors include Lusi Faiva, Suli Moa, Edith Amituanai and Amanaki Prescott-Faletau, who was interviewed on Radio New Zealand last Sunday. The reporter let me know the article was valuable for the interview research – great feedback for all of us creating and improving content in Wikipedia.
On the project page is highlighted plenty of articles to create or improve. I invite you to have a look and contribute if you can. There are many long-standing festivals in Aotearoa without articles such as the Hawkes Bay Arts Festival, Tauranga Festival of the Arts, Taranaki International Arts Festival, Nelson Arts Festival and the Christchurch Arts Festival. Creating these Wikipedia pages or Wikidata items allows links to biographies and strengthens the weaving of Wikipedia.
Other suggestions for new articles:
Reach out to me if you want guidance on any aspects of Wikipedia, or a collegial conversation about writing encyclopaedic entries on performing arts. I can set up a zoom, or direct you to places for help.
Please try to remember to add any relevant articles improved or created to the lists on the project page so the impact can be seen. Take your name off the project page if you don’t want to get these sporadic updates. I will keep an eye on new articles and I have an ongoing campaign to get more images uploaded so we can illustrate the articles too. I have resources on Wikimedia Commons if you are interested. Feel free to contact me on my talk page.

Thanks again for the tidy little links you did for Lowe's book to the award page. Nice. I was wondering if we should think about doing an article for this book? I haven't done any books per se, and you seem like an experienced and responsible editor, so would be interested to get your feedback. I will set up a discussion on Lowe's talk page.

The Editing team plans to change the appearance of talk pages. These are separate from the changes made by the mw:Desktop improvements project and will appear in both Vector 2010 and Vector 2022. The goal is to add some information and make discussions look visibly different from encyclopedia articles. You can see some ideas at Wikipedia talk:Talk pages project#Prototype Ready for Feedback.

News from the West Coast |
Development West Coast have kindly agreed to support another short Wikipedian at Large contract on the West Coast, to cover areas that were missed the first time around: Lake Brunner, Te Wahipounamu, Ōpārara Arches, and Punakaiki. From June 20th to August 26th I'll be improving articles, Wikidata, and photo collections on these areas, and would love some help. I'm inviting you to sign up on the project page; there'll be a fortnightly "postcards from the Coast" of to-dos and updates, and prizes for the most and best contributions by volunteers. Hope to see you there! — Giantflightlessbirds ( talk) 22:54, 4 June 2022 (UTC)) |
