Wiki Loves Caucasus 2019

Wiki Loves Caucasus 2019 is the first regional competition, which is organized by Caucasian Wikimedians. The main goal of the competition is to create as many articles about the Caucasus in the languages of the Caucasus as possible.

The language sections of Wikipedia in the languages of the Caucasus will be participating in the competition, during which new articles about the countries of the Caucasus (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia) will be created. Each participating country should create thematic articles about other participating countries.

Other countries and relevant Wikipedias, that don't represent this region, can participate in the competition. The winning contestants in all language Wikipedia's (regional and other's) will be awarded special prizes, to be awarded by local organizers.

Local competitions are organised by local teams and in every community the competition will be slightly different in order to take local context into account. Competition will be held from October 7 to November 7.
