Can people try to add the entries they post here to the bottom of the main list on the main contest page too in the style given there, for the master list? It's just it's taking quite a while to do them all myself and judge the articles too! Thanks!
This is the main entry page for the Destubathon. All entries are to be submitted here between 0:00 UTC+0 on 15th October and 23:59 UTC+0 on 27th November. If the page gets too large though we'll find a way to address that as the contest proceeds. Remember before submitting entries that there should be no unsourced claims and that it's readable prose which counts, not overall article kb size, exclude references, infoboxes and tables when measuring and just copy the text on the screen and measure it! I've put up a tool in the Measuring tool section which you can all program in to make it easier to measure on that so look out for it and program it! Remember too that it is whoever wins the most destubs for the most countries who will be crowned the contest winner, but there are larger prizes for other aspects like independent Good Article work too. Best of luck and happy editing!
Geography stubs can be found in Category:Africa geography stubs and sub categories by country. Wildlife (or fauna) stub-lists have been prepared for a number of countries, but for the remainder finding wildlife stubs is a little trickier given that many are found in multiple countries and they aren't stub categorized by country, but there are so many stubs that finding one shouldn't be too difficult. Category:Fauna of Africa by region and Category:Flora of Africa by region subcategories and finding specific African nations from Category:Endemic fauna by country and Category:Endemic flora by country should be a good place to start and find articles. The idea is that you can find any stub and improve it, and then elect one country for it to represent, even if found in a dozen or more countries. As long as the article states that that it is found in that country or categorized as such.
This is a Destubathon, so missing articles in general are not permitted, so as to retain a focus on fleshing out existing entries. However, a number of African countries have very few women bio stubs in relation to men. The amount of women bios is often shockingly low, well under 10%, so it would affect the contest for countries which have less than half a dozen. As a result new minimum 1.5 kb readable prose entries for women biographies and topics will be permitted. No stubs though please, as the goal of this is reducing them overall! You can view a missing list of African women bios here.
If interested in working on women articles for this though, try to work on both destubbing existing articles and creating missing articles if you can, as it is a destubbing contest after all and the goal is to reduce the overall stub count by the end!
If you're not entering the contest or feel like creating some new articles on anything you want other than women bios, those will be permitted on the list at the bottom of the main page, but not on this page and won't count towards the contest credits. But some editors might spot some really notable missing articles and feel like contributing. Try to ensure that no new stubs are created though, as this is a Desubathon after all! Only start class entries over 1.5 kb.
You can check your entries using this tool before submitting here. The article readable prose, excluding sources and lists will have to be strictly minimum 1.5 kb (1500 bytes) to comply with the contest. Stubs expanded and new articles for women must all be minimum that once you've finished the article.
What would make it easier on this is if everybody programs their common.js in their preferences to contain:
Go into your preferences, click on the "Appearances" tab
Where it says "Shared CSS/JavaScript for all skins:", click "custom javascript
Paste the command given above into that and save.
Now approach an article and look in the tools section on the left. You should see "Page size". Click that for each article and you'll quickly get a reading without having to paste text all of the time and look externally.
Look out for where it says, for example: "Prose size (text only): 1684 B (289 words) "readable prose size" ". That's what we're looking for on this, that has to read over 1500 B when finished.
Select a core or women stub to "destub" from here or browse Category:Uganda stubs and sub categories and find one independently. If tackling an article on the core list, remember to embolden the article here and state "core stub". List your "destubbed" articles under your user name in a subsection below. If you can, try to give a diff of the article expansion work you've done and final readable prose count using the measuring tool. If it's a new article on a woman, state the final readable prose count, as entries all have to be over 1.5kb (1500 characters) to comply with the contest.
