Hi Michael,

This one is just focusing on the peace prize. As you may know, the rest of
the Nobel prizes are awarded by Swedish institutes, while the peace prize
is handled by the Norwegian Nobel Committee. Our cooperation is with the
Nobel Peace Center, which is sort of like a museum about the peace prize,
and since they're only focussed on the peace prize I don't think it would
be practical to include the other prizes here. However, it would be great
if Wikimedia Sverige could try to get something similar going in Sweden.

[Wikimedia-l] Wikinobel 2015 tomorrow

2015-10-08 Thread Jon Harald Søby
Hi everybody,

You may have seen the blog post
 already, but
I'd like to remind you that the Nobel Peace Prize will be announced
tomorrow, and like last year, Wikimedia Norge and the Nobel Peace Center
are hosting an editathon as the prize is announced, aiming to update
Wikipedias in various languages as soon as possible, and provide sources
about the winner(s).

We will meet in the Nobel Peace Center at 10:00 local time (09:00 UTC), and
the prize will be announced one hour later. Like last year, we will use the
IRC channel #wikinobel (webchat link ), and
will also tweet from the event using the hashtag #wikinobel
 (also on Instagram at #wikinobel
).

Please join us, and feel free to spread this message to your local
community.

2015-10-08 Thread Michael Peel
Hi Jon,

Is this just for the Peace Prize, or will the editathon also work on articles 
on the winners of the other nobel prizes? I've been doing some wikignoming on 
the enwp articles on the physics prize winners [1] [2], but they still need 
more work on the content - although there are now quite a few versions in other 
languages now that weren't there a few days ago!

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takaaki_Kajita - a new article created on the 
day of the announcement. Could really do with a picture.
[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_B._McDonald - the article already 
existed, so this hasn't seen as much change as the other one.

Thanks,
Mike
