In particular, it looks Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reports, containing a huge quantity of important information about climate change, are rarely used in Wikipedia articles. -- Daniele Pugliesi ( talk) 21:46, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
Wikimedia Switzerland organised a similar project this week, see meta:Wikipedia for Peace/Climate Justice 2020. We made an extensive list of articles around climate justice that might be of interest for the participants of this project here as well. -- Shikeishu ( talk) 17:21, 14 November 2020 (UTC)

From Arno's post in the Slack channel: "Well-timed report from WMO that came out yesterday. https://reliefweb.int/sites/reliefweb.int/files/resources/GHG-Bulletin-16_en.pdf This will help us update emissions data. It also shows that the COVID pandemic has only has minor impacts on GHG emissions." EMsmile ( talk) 06:19, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
Dear edit-a-thon participants, I would like to encourage those who have created a new article (or expanded an article that was previously just a stub) as part of this event to submit their articles to Wikipedia:Did you know. For those nominations which are approved, a short and interesting fact from the article will be included on the Wikipedia front page for 12 hours or a day. Nomination is not a guarantee of success, and reviewers may request some changes, but the DYKers are generally a friendly bunch so don't let this put you off. Please be aware that this needs to be done as soon as possible, as submissions must be made within a week of creation. Instructions for nominations can be found at Template talk:Did you know. I'm happy to assist as best I can if there are questions. Best, CMD ( talk) 17:40, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
For an experienced editor, nominating them will cost about half an hour. You need one fact from the article with a citation. If there are major problems with the new article (big neutrality issues f.i.), reviewers will request you solve them. Femke Nijsse ( talk) 13:11, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
I think Pakistan and Kenya are good examples here. Femke Nijsse ( talk) 13:12, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
I'd go for a slightly smaller sentence; leave out the and puts pressure on major parts of the economy. You can propose multiple sentences and the reviewer will then select the most interesting one / properly cited one. I think a second proposal could be that 'sea level rise of just 30 cm will pose a threat of flooding to 17% of Kenya's second-largest city, Mombasa' Femke Nijsse ( talk) 14:26, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
I think we should invite to participate not only people from the Wiki project climate change but also from WikiProject Environment.
