乜嘢係維基百科亞洲月？

維基百科亞洲月 (WAM) 係一個一年一度嘅維基競賽，目的就係響各個特定語言嘅維基百科上推動亞洲內容。每個社區都會響每年11月響佢地嘅網站上舉辦長達一個月嘅編輯馬拉松，去建立新內容或者改善除咗本國以外嘅亞洲文章內容。

第一次舉辦呢個競賽係響2015年，之後每年嘅文章數量增加、參加者亦越嚟越多元化同埋擴大。維基百科亞洲月響呢五年嚟所取得嘅成就：多過63種特定語言嘅維基百科加咗超過37,500篇高質量文章，由超過2,900位維基友編輯。

As part of the friendship and cultural exchange of the Wikipedia Asian Community, participants who create at least four articles will receive a special Wikipedia Asian Month Postcard from another participating community. Wikipedians who create the most articles on each Wikipedia will be honored as "Wikipedia Asian Ambassadors".

Get ready to be surprised! You never know which Wiki community will be sending you postcards!

Call to Action!

There are millions of subjects you can read about on Wikipedia, but Asian topics are largely underrepresented on the internet as well as on Wikipedia despite being the largest and most populous continent. Without being presented on the internet, Asia's rich culture and history are hard to be learned and known by the rest of the world. Meanwhile, most Asian languages Wikipedia projects and communities are relatively smaller compared to its large population base. There are 9 Wikipedia projects that have more than 5,000 active users, yet only 2 of them are Asian languages. Among 39 Wikimedia Chapters, only 7 of them are from Asia.

Wikipedia Asian Month wishes to narrow these gaps. Supporting is essential for these communities to take more approaches to grow. Wikipedia Asian Month devotes itself to this supporter position for demands of community development. For many Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects / communities, Wikipedia Asian Month is their only online event. By participating in the Asian Month, you are empowering the WAM team and make all these supporters possible and available to these communities.

Unlike some other Wikipedia events, Wikipedia Asian Month isn't paying most of its attention to outreach to new users, or highlight extraordinary active editor. Instead, we give most of our effort to praise the core forces of the Wikipedian communities, who has constantly contributed to Wikipedia for a long period of time by writing several new articles every year, or by making a couple hundred edits once a while.
