MeithealWiki
About MeithealWiki
editEach month, Wikimedia Community Ireland hosts an online Meitheal or community editing event in English and Irish. As a community, we aim to improve content related to Irish heritage, culture and history under a different theme each month.
Then at our Community meetings, we can celebrate how much we accomplished together, share any challenges or new snippets of knowledge we came across while editing! We will also be able to help each other out and share skills.
The Tasklist
editYou can find each month’s task list on our website here. It has pages that need more content in both languages, and also red links, or pages that are missing from Wikipedia.
These articles present opportunities for contributors to enhance Wikipedia’s coverage of topics related to Ireland and content in Irish.
If you’re interested in contributing, consider exploring these topics further and enriching the content for the benefit of all readers. You can also contribute to the monthly MeithealWiki by adding images (don’t forget to enter the Wiki Loves Earth photo contest if you do!), fixing typos, adding references and citations, anything you have time to do is valid and helpful!
