> Dear Wikipedians from all over the world,

> for 10 days now the arguably largest article writing contest has been
> taking place in Central and Eastern Europe - Wikimedia CEE Spring [1]. For
> 72 days Wikipedians from 29 communities [2] will be writing about the
> culture, history, important persons and much more about the region on their
> Wikipedias. The contest aims at closing content gaps about countries,
> regions [3] and languages [4] from the region. Each community created a
> list of at least 100 articles [5] which it would like to see written in all
> languages and all other communities are doing so with fervour! Communities
> as large communities as the Russian, Ukrainian and Polish ones, and as
> small as the Sakhan, Estonian and Macedonian ones, have joined. Highly
> motivated local organisers and guys with magical technical skills have
> emerged from all the communities and have made organising the contest an
> easy task.
>
> At the moment of writing the Ukrainians are leading the pack when it comes
> to the highest amoung of created and significantly expanded articles [6]
> and most articles have been written from Hungary's lists [7]. Participants
> are gladly sharing their articles with their friends via a Facebook page
> [8]. Over 1000 articles from the lists and over 1400 in total have been
> created or significantly expanded during the first 10 days [6][7].
>
> Some communities have special prizes aiming at closing the content gender
> gap, too. Most countries have put notable women in their wished topics. The
> project is funded by an international grant [9] which covers expenses for
> books and other source materials for writing articles on Wikipedia and its
> sister projects of up to 400 Euro per community.

> Spread the word and write some articles about CEE!
