Destubathon in March 2020

The Wikipedia:The Great Britain/Ireland Destubathon is planned for March 2020, a contest/editathon to eliminate as many stubs as possible from all counties. Amazon vouchers/book prizes are planned. £50 available for the most Wales destubs. Sign up on page if interested in participating; hope this will prove to be good fun and productive.

Ydych chi'n siarad Cymraeg? Do you speak Welsh?
Mae angen eich help ar Wicipedia Cymraeg hefyd. The Welsh Language Wikipedia needs your help too.
Diolch yn fawr. Many thanks.

Editors interested in articles on Wales are welcome and encouraged to edit on Welsh Wicipedia, where there are many tasks to be done. A knowledge of Welsh is helpful but certainly not essential (hint: hovering over tabs will often show the English equivalent url). These links are helpful -
