Priroda-Dossier Writing contest - Schreibwettbewerb Concours d’écriture - Concorso di scrittura über Schweizer Schutzgebiete – about Swiss protected area – sur zone protégée suisse – circa area protetta svizzera Baum im Naturpark Neckertal The competition is closed. Many thanks for the active participation. Description Our goal is the complete representation of all Swiss protected area on OpenStreetMap (OSM) and Wikipedia (WP)! Writing contest From 15 October 2021 we are launching writing contest in four languages on the category of Protected areas of Switzerland. This virtual event will last until the end of November (Tuesday, 30 November). Every Monday we can meet virtually to compare our work, discuss questions, etc. The aim is: Wikipedia increase the number of articles about protected areas in German, French, Italian and English (of course you can also add articles in other languages, but then outside the rating) Commons make and upload photos of missing objects, preferably in a separate category (see also Wiki Loves Monuments 2021). Wikidata make sure that these protected areas have a correct record with geo coordinates etc. OSM complete protected areas with additional attributes (tags). This event is organized by the WMCH under the guidelines of Respectful behavior space policy. Missing articles and data Only on protected areas are hundreds of articles missing, as can easily be seen in the German-language list overview. Transferring these lists into the other languages would also be a good piece of hard work. The creation of Lists is possible and is evaluated like the creation of new articles. A good overview of all the areas in question is listed here. Compared to our last Competition on castles (castles dossier), the article inventory in this category is much more incomplete, the possibilities for activity thus correspondingly richer. Tools https://petscan.wmflabs.org/ Overview of already existing articles participation terms open access Everyone can take part. We welcome even the smallest improvements regarding protected areas in Switzerland within the following categories and in one of the four most spoken languages German, French, Italian or English. Any entry in any of these categories or its sub-categories is eligible to enter this competition: Categories are disposal for Commons/ Language German French Italian English Protected areas of Switzerland Schutzgebiet in der Schweiz Aire protégée en Suisse Aree naturali protette della Svizzera Protected areas of Switzerland Projects included The first access point is Wikipedia. However, contributions can also be made to Wikidata or Wikimedia Commons, which are intended to link the platforms together. If you are used to working with OpenStreetMap (or willing to learn to do so), your edits there also count. High values Whatever you do, everything is worthwhile for us. Everything counts. Please add up the points of your work and enter your points in the personal table. At the end of this event, we will be pleased to offer some prizes to the best volunteers. Preparation of participation To participate in this multilingual event, you must be logged in with Your account. This is also valid for all other Wikimedia projects except for OpenStreetMap (OSM). Please log in there additionally. Without an account we cannot track your contributions and you will not be able to count your points. Of course, you can also participate in this event without counting points. Please also register with OSM if you have not already done so. The instructions can be found at OSM.org. Here it is necessary to enter the hashtag #PrirodaProject for all edits (change set comments) so that they are included in the evaluation. If you have any questions about OSM, please check OSM.ch for help, OpenSchoolMaps.ch for an introduction or contact Stefan Keller (stefan.keller ät ost.ch). So, join in and participate in this writing competition. There are a few prizes at the end (of this page and this event). Participate! After clicking on this link, a new section will be created in the page /Participants. Here you can collect your points transparently for all participants. Scoring The main focus is on writing content, but even small changes will improve our pages and your score. The following points catalogue gives you exact information about this. But it's also worth taking part if you don't have much experience with the projects yet. For this purpose, we have divided the table into "standard tasks" and " challenging tasks". It quickly becomes clear that you can get the most points for more ambitious work. Each person is responsible for his/her own score. Everyone can see the points of the other participants.
