Well, please know that I will gladly review any DYKs or GANs about Haiti-related articles. If you are interested or don't have many plans for the contest, consider helping out! [[User:Averageuntitleduser|Averageuntitleduser]] ([[User talk:Averageuntitleduser|talk]]) 20:10, 30 June 2025 (UTC)

== Pre-Columbian Indigenous Figures ==

Hello! I was thinking of working on the article for [[Anacaona]], an Indigenous Taíno woman, for this contest. She was from the chiefdom of [[Jaragua, Hispaniola|Jaragua]], which was primarily located in what is now Haiti (specifically from the area that would become the town of [[Léogâne]]), but with parts in the Dominican Republic as well. Would she be closely-related enough to either country to be included within the scope of this contest? If so, what country would I submit her under (or could I submit her under both)?

:Thanks for your question, [[User:Spookyaki|Spookyaki]]! It appears to be verifiable that the subject was born and lived in present-day Haiti, so feel free to submit it under that flag. It looks like a very interesting topic in great need of improvement! :) <span class="nowrap">—[[User:TechnoSquirrel69|<span style="color: #0b541f;">'''TechnoSquirrel69'''</span>]]</span> <small>([[User talk:TechnoSquirrel69|<span style="color: #0b541f;">'''sigh'''</span>]])</small> 07:50, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

== Points system ==

I understand how the points work, but what do the Abbreviations mean? [[User:Theeverywhereperson|<span style="background-color: orange; color: darkblue">Theeverywhereperson</span>]] ([[User talk:Theeverywhereperson|talk here]]) 10:17, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

:Hey [[User:Theeverywhereperson|Theeverywhereperson]], which abbreviations are you referring to? If it's the process initialisms (FA, GA, etc.), they are expanded and linked at {{slinkno|Wikipedia:Developing_Countries_WikiContest/2025/Scoring#Scores}} of the scoring page. In general, if you see an abbreviation you're unfamiliar with, you can find it [[WP:ABC|on this page]] or [[Special:Search|search]] for it with the prefix ''WP:''. Let me know if you have any other questions! <span class="nowrap">—[[User:TechnoSquirrel69|<span style="color: #0b541f;">'''TechnoSquirrel69'''</span>]]</span> <small>([[User talk:TechnoSquirrel69|<span style="color: #0b541f;">'''sigh'''</span>]])</small> 10:22, 1 July 2025 (UTC)
