Soliciting article feedback

Hello,

I have been writing about a rather controversial topic related to Bulgaria and would like to solicit feedback. I would like to know if this is the proper place to do so, and if so if anyone here would be willing to work with me to improve the relevant articles.

And in case anyone has seen me working, I am not some sort of Bulgaria hater, what caught my fancy caught my fancy :) and I want to ensure it is properly documented on English wikipedia. Pietrus1 (talk) 23:47, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

RfC: Nina Dobrev

There is an ongoing RfC at Talk:Nina Dobrev regarding the inclusion of Dobrev's Bulgarian nationality in the article's lede, if anyone would like to chime in. Anthony Whitaker (talk) 11:48, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Suggestions to better assist in project Bulgaria

Apologies if this is the wrong location to post this, but I was wondering if there are any suggestions on what I can do to better help. So far I have created a few Bulgarian pages and added information and pushpin maps to existing pages. I have also attempted to translate a page which remains as a draft. I was wondering what would be something else that I can begin to work on as well.

Thank you Artem P75 (talk) 01:36, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Women in Green's October 2024 edit-a-thon

Hello WikiProject Bulgaria:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2024!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

Seeking collaboration and / or direction

Hi, I am just posting to see if anyone would be interested in collaborating to improve Bulgarian articles on the English Wikipedia, or if anyone can give me some direction on ways that I can work on improving them, I have so far added hundreds of pushpin maps to different rural Bulgarian villages and have started creating some stubs for hose villages which are red-linked. Just wondering if anyone would be interested in working together :) Thank you! Artem P75 (talk) 03:36, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Law of Bulgaria

Law of Bulgaria is a three-sentence stub, with no inline citations. Please help to expand it. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:09, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

I've started to format it. I also went to WP:LAW for help. Bearian (talk) 22:31, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

The European Destubathon

Project members are invited to participate in The European Destubathon in April. Almost $3000 in Amazon voucher prizes, including a prize for articles from your project, which can be used to buy books for content, though it can also be treated as an editathon if you're not interested in competing! Minimum content to be added to each article just to ensure that they're over a stub, though longer expansions also welcome. Entries at the end of the contest will be tipped into the 50,000 Destubbing Challenge and European Challenge. Previous contests were really enjoyable and I'm hoping this one will be too!

The Developing Countries WikiContest Gold Belt Buckle

WikiProject Bulgaria, the Developing Countries WikiContest will be returning for a second year, and sign-ups are now open! The contest will run from 1 July to 30 September, and the objective remains the same: improve as many articles relating to developing countries as you can to help fight systemic bias on Wikipedia.

In other news, we have a new face on the coordinator team this year: last year's sixth-place finisher, Arconning (talk · contribs)! The coordinators would like to extend a sincere thanks to Ixtal (talk · contribs), who is leaving the team, without whom the contest would not exist. After feedback from contestants last year, the scoring rules are undergoing some modifications; the new rules and a summary of the changes made will be posted to the contest talk page shortly.

If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page, use the {{@DCWC coordinators}} template, or contact one of the coordinators: Arconning (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).
