What is the purpose of the campaign? How will you measure the success of the campaign?

Description - The youngest of the Bengali Wikimedia projects "Bengali Wikiquote" had been progressing rather slowly since its launch in August 2022. However, that trend was broken by the Quote Competition held in April last year. Out of the 1,347 entries currently available on the project, 823 (61%) were created through this competition. The competition successfully attracted several new contributors, some of whom are now actively contributing to the project. Therefore, following last year's success, we are going to organize the competition again this year. We want a banner for this purpose.

@MS Sakib: I have created the Campaign and banner (preview). Please check everything and ping me with your approval so that I can enable the campaign. Best, ~ Yahya (talk • contribs) 18:25, 15 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Yahya Tripura has not been added. It is a Bengali-majority state of India. ≈ MS Sakib «TalK» 00:39, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Yahya: The banner looks very bright on dark mode, I have changed its colour according to this discussion. — Adding Tripura looks okay to me. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 20:12, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@DerHexer Thanks for the update! I tested it on my phone and laptop using different browsers, and it looks responsive to me. I also adjusted the position of the close button. @MS Sakib I’ve added Tripura. If no other concerns come up, I’ll proceed with approval in the next few days. ~ Yahya (talk • contribs) 21:30, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
