„Състезание Архиви 2016“

Archives Challenge 2016 is an international competition connected to the digitised documents from the joint work of Wikimedians of Bulgaria and Bulgarian Archives State Agency, which was started in 2012.

Until now over 6500 documents have been digitised, most of them are images of people, images from Bulgaria, images from the world, images connected to the ethnography of Bulgaria, Macedonia and Albania, documents. The gallery "Then and Now" is especially interesting; there the participants find couples of images at the same place or an object from the archives and nowadays, which are ordered in a few thematic groups. This year there will be a possibility to name a certain object or place and add coordinates.

The vast amount of the documents has descriptions in Bulgarian and English. Thanks to the first edition of the Archives Challenge in 2015 there were 3200 new descriptions added, 268 descriptions changed, 2300 categories added, and 597 images used in articles. 69 couples of images were found in the category "Then and Now". The images inspired the participants to write 94 new articles (454 500 bytes) in Armenian, Serbian and Bulgarian.

We encourage the organisation of joint contests with other GLAM projects connected to archives worldwide.

There is an additional contest, connected to adding the names from the Index of the people awarded with different grades of the order "St. Alexander" to the corresponding articles. Because of that specific it will be only for the participants from Bulgaria and the points will not be added to the total amount of points.

The contest begins at 00:00 (UTC) on the 15th November 2016 and ends at 23:59 (UTC) on the 15th December 2016

مفاجئة!

Inspired by the wonderful idea from the Asian Month of sending thank-you postcards, we would like to adopt it in the Archives Challenge, too, and express our gratitude for their participation to all challengees who collect at least 500 points from contributions within the challenge.

We will be sending our special postcards with collages of archival and modern photos, featuring identical places in Bulgaria, photographed then and now. And this is not everything. These beautiful Wiki postcards will be delivered to the recipients with the first official Wiki postage stamp, that was launched in Bulgaria, featuring one of the Top 10 selected photos in the national Wiki Loves Earth photo competition in 2016.

We hope that with these tokens of appreciation we will stimulate the motivation in the global wiki community for even wider international participation in the challenge this year.

Change the "en" at the end to search another languages, e.g. Bulgarian, Armenian, Italian, etc.

Cat-a-lot* Used for: Mass categorization / recategorization / uncategorization of files in Commons.

Activation: Every user can activate it from their Preferences >> tab "Gadgets" >> Tools for categories >> Cat-a-lot
How to use it: c:Help:Gadget-Cat-a-lot

CatScan* Used for: Generating on demand category tree intersections of a category with/without another category, with/without templates, namespaces, various parameters related to byte size, time of last edit, links, red links, redirects, etc.

Address: https://tools.wmflabs.org/catscan3/catscan2.php

GLAMify* Used for: Helping other/smaller Wikipedias make good use of those collections based on the already existing usage of those images on Wikipedia in another language.

Address: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ijon/GLAMify
Example: Request

# sr; bg; Wiki Expedition Dimitrovgrad - Dragoman 2015 Day 2; Spiritia
```
