Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organize information in articles related to Bulgaria. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there.

[edit] Things to do

  • Create new articles. You may like to write a highly-requested article (like a red link that you see everywhere), translate a well-written article from the Bulgarian Wikipedia or some other language you know, or just dedicate yourself to a field you feel confident in that obviously lacks coverage.
  • Edit other articles:
    • Expand stubs.
    • Fill in and check sources, references and external links.
    • Fill in categories.
    • Copy edit: check spelling and punctuation, standardize dates, mark stubs.
  • Add a photograph to an article for Wikipedia requested photographs in Bulgaria.
  • Comment on the Bulgaria-related articles up for deletion.

[edit] Suggestions for "Did you know...?"

I came across the story of Solomon Passy's Trabant, which would be a real good item for the Did you know section on the main page. However, to qualify it needs to be an article that has been expanded by at least a 1000 words recently, which I am not able to do. Who can? Preslav 13:00, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

  • No one. It only qualifies if it gets expanded beyond 1000 characters, and it is already longer than that.

Another suggestion — this coin. --Cameltrader 12:53, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wanted images for existing articles

I think it would be nice to have a section on this page dedicated to articles lacking images. It's a cliche that a picture is worth a 1000 words, but I think people not familiar with Bulgaria who see our beautiful country would be really pleasantly surpirsed. Many articles lack images, if we start identifying them, maybe we would be able to find images hidden in the Commons or other language versions, or someone might take pictures of the subject matter faster than otherwise. Thanks, --Vanka5 07:51, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

High-quality images are indeed very necessary. A good way to tag articles that need a photograph is to put {{reqphotoin}} on the talk page. This adds the article to Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Bulgaria which is quite underpopulated now, unfortunately :) → Тодор Божинов / Todor Bozhinov → 09:40, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks, Tosho! So we should really use {{Reqphotoin|Bulgaria}} then? Once we figure this out, the category will start filling up quickly. ;-) Thanks! --Vanka5 21:42, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
I figured it out, it works! Thanks again, Tosho! --Vanka5 04:50, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Add Bulgaria to every "List of" article where it is missing

As a way of putting Bulgaria on the map, I suggest adding it to every list from where it is missing, but other European/Balkan/etc. countries are present. E.g. search Google for "site:wikipedia.org "list of" greece -bulgaria -intitle:greece -intitle:greek" to find suitable pages. Philipstoev 12:41, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

We now have our very own Wikipedia:WikiProject Bulgaria/Assessment. Please join in rating every single Bulgaria-related articles according to the quality and importance scale — you can find instructions on the page above. Thanks! Todor→Bozhinov 19:17, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
