  2nd edition, December 5th, 2018 - January 20th, 2019
  Welcome to the Wikipedia editing contest around the culture of Latin America, the Middle East and North Africa!
  What?: The Bridges across Cultures contest is an editing contest organized by different Wikimedia affiliates with the goal to promote cultural exchange between Latin America and the Middle East & North Africa (MENA) regions. Its second edition will be organized in December 2018 and January 2019.
  When?: The editing contest runs from 00:01 December 5th, 2018 to 23:59 January 20th, 2019 (UTC).
  How?: To participate, you first need to subscribe to the list of participants. Then, create or expand articles regarding Latin American culture in Arabic, Persian or Turkish Wikipedia or Middle Eastern and Northern African culture in Spanish or Portuguese Wikipedia. You can create any article from the list of countries in the following categories:
  Who?: Any Wikimedia user signed in the list of participants before 23:59 January 20th, 2019 (UTC).
  Where?: For the 2018 edition, you can participate in Arabic, Persian, Portuguese, Spanish and Turkish Wikipedia.
  In Arabic, Persian and Turkish Wikipedia, only articles related to Latin American countries will be considered for this contest.
  In Spanish and Portuguese Wikipedia, only articles related to Middle Eastern and North African countries will be considered for this contest.
  Why?: The goal of the contest is to promote cultural exchange between Latin America and the Middle East & North Africa regions. Although Wikipedia has been an unique opportunity to expand the access to knowledge from every corner of the world, there is still a difference in the quality of articles and a bias towards European and North American content. We expect this contest can help to promote South–South cooperation and increase the access to content with a global perspective.
