Latin American cinema task force
A Latin American cinema task force has been proposed at WP:FILMS, which would include the cinema of Bolivia. Interested editors are encouraged to sign up - if there is enough interest, then the task force will be created! Many thanks, Girolamo Savonarola (talk) 20:28, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
Potosí
I think the Potosí article should be rated of high importance. Potosí was the largest city in the Americas in the early 17th centuries and one of the largest in the world. If it hadn't been for its silver mines, Spain would have never had its so-called Golden Age. And, if I am not mistaken, it was one of the first places in Bolivia to be named World Heritage by UNESCO.

Coordinators' working group
Hi! I'd like to draw your attention to the new WikiProject coordinators' working group, an effort to bring both official and unofficial WikiProject coordinators together so that the projects can more easily develop consensus and collaborate. This group has been created after discussion regarding possible changes to the A-Class review system, and that may be one of the first things discussed by interested coordinators.
All designated project coordinators are invited to join this working group. If your project hasn't formally designated any editors as coordinators, but you are someone who regularly deals with coordination tasks in the project, please feel free to join as well. — Delievered by §hepBot (Disable) on behalf of the WikiProject coordinators' working group at 04:58, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.
If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none
parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.
Message sent by User:Addbot to all active wiki projects per request, Comments on the message and bot are welcome here.
Thanks. — Headbomb {ταλκκοντριβς – WP Physics} 08:53, 15 March, 2009 (UTC)

WP 1.0 bot announcement
This message is being sent to each WikiProject that participates in the WP 1.0 assessment system. On Saturday, January 23, 2010, the WP 1.0 bot will be upgraded. Your project does not need to take any action, but the appearance of your project's summary table will change. The upgrade will make many new, optional features available to all WikiProjects. Additional information is available at the WP 1.0 project homepage. — Carl (CBM · talk) 03:01, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
Bolivia articles have been selected for the Wikipedia 0.8 release
Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the Wikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone. Articles were selected based on their assessed importance and quality, then article versions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the WikiTrust algorithm.
We would like to ask you to review the Bolivia articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (♦) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details. You may wish to look at your WikiProject's articles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.
We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010. As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as One Laptop per Child and Wikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide. Please help us, with your WikiProject's feedback!
For the Wikipedia 1.0 editorial team, SelectionBot 22:07, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
WikiProject cleanup listing
I have created together with Smallman12q a toolserver tool that shows a weekly-updated list of cleanup categories for WikiProjects, that can be used as a replacement for WolterBot and this WikiProject is among those that are already included (because it is a member of Category:WolterBot cleanup listing subscriptions). See the tool's wiki page, this project's listing in one big table or by categories and the index of WikiProjects. Svick (talk) 20:29, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
WikiWomen's History Month
Hi everyone. March is Women's History Month and I'm hoping a few folks here at WP:Bolivia will have interest in putting on events (on and off wiki) related to women's roles in Bolivia's history, society and culture. We've created an event page on English Wikipedia (please translate!) and I hope you'll find the inspiration to participate. These events can take place off wiki, like edit-a-thons, or on wiki, such as themes and translations. Please visit the page here: WikiWomen's History Month. Thanks for your consideration and I look forward to seeing events take place! SarahStierch (talk) 00:45, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
Portal Notice
Okay, I am making a portal for Bolivia. It's here ~~EBE123~~ talkContribs 19:51, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
- Perhaps you should start directly at Portal:Bolivia. A portal involves many pages, and it would be very hard to move from user space to portal space as with articles. Even more, if you create all those pages in your user page, you would have to fix all the links when you move it. I don't think anyone will complain about a portal that's still being developed. MBelgrano (talk) 20:42, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

New article: Blood of the Condor
I noticed there was no article for the 1969 Bolivian film Blood of the Condor (Quechua: Yawar Mallku, Spanish: Sangre de Condor), an anti-colonialist, pro-indigenous film that I once saw more than a decade ago. It was quite an interesting film (and has been uploaded to YouTube) so I thought I'd write an article on it. If anyone is interested in contributing (or watching the film and then contributing) that'd be great. MatthewVanitas (talk) 01:33, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

You are invited to participate in Wiki Loves Pride 2014, a campaign to create and improve LGBT-related content at Wikipedia and its sister projects. The campaign will take place throughout the month of June, culminating with a multinational edit-a-thon on June 21. Meetups are being held in some cities, or you can participate remotely. All constructive edits are welcome in order to contribute to Wikipedia's mission of providing quality, accurate information. Articles within Category:LGBT in the Americas may be of particular interest. You can also upload LGBT-related images by participating in Wikimedia Commons' LGBT-related photo challenge. You are encouraged to share the results of your work here. Happy editing! --Another Believer (Talk) 21:06, 5 June 2014 (UTC)
Comment on the WikiProject X proposal
Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej (talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
WikiProject X is live!
Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

If you have any questions, please leave a message on the campaign's main talk page.
Thanks, and happy editing!
57 Bolivia-related articles needing geographical coordinates
Based on a search of Wikipedia's articles related to Bolivia, I've found some articles that I believe are about places in Bolivia, and could usefully have geographical coordinates added.
The articles in question are listed in Category:Bolivia articles missing geocoordinate data. At the time of writing, some examples included:
- Chapare Province
- Cordillera Oriental (Bolivia)
- Franz Tamayo Province
- Huanuni tin mine
- Jaime Zudáñez Province
...and there are many more, as well. At the time of posting this notice, there were 57 articles in this category needing geographical coordinates.
Why add coordinates?
By adding coordinates, a Wikipedia reader can easily view the location on a street map, nautical chart, topographic map, by satellite photo, realtime weather map, and in many other ways. Coordinate data makes an article eventually appear in various services such as Google Maps' Wikipedia overlay, Google Earth, and Wikipedia's own internal map service. Coordinate data also helps readers looking for geographically-based data, such as locations near a reference point, or related information.
How can I do it?
The articles are all marked with {{coord missing}} tags, which need to be replaced with {{coord}} tags that contain the location's latitude/longitude coordinates; or you might be able to add coordinates to an existing infobox. You can find out how to do this at the Wikipedia:Geocoding how-to for WikiProject members. Please let me know if this is useful, or if you have any questions! -- The Anome (talk) 09:44, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
Morales
Can you people give your 2 cents on this discussion? Talk:Evo Morales#Article split. I think the article is getting way to big, and disorganized. As a result I split the article along the lines of the Hugo Chavez article. See Foreign policy of Evo Morales. Lihaas (talk) 13:14, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
User templates
the user template for this project is a redlink. Just through I'd point that out so it can be corrected. Lihaas (talk) 07:35, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- A year after but I took the liberty to make a user template here: {{User WikiProject Bolivia}} I hope it's of the liking of everyone I used the Cockade of Bolivia, maybe I can do more designs in the future with the shield or flag. Best regards. --Erebedhel - Talk 20:33, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
- How do I get the template on the right side of my member page? -- Meister (talk) 13:03, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
I'm not an expert in user page design but I think most people use {{Userboxtop}} and {{Userboxbottom}} like this:
{{Userboxtop}} {{User WikiProject Bolivia}} {{Babel|de|en-3|es-1}} {{Userboxbottom}}
or you can use tables like this:
{|align=right |{{Userboxtop}} {{User WikiProject Bolivia}} {{Userboxbottom}} {{Babel|de|en-3|es-1}}
or:
{| |YOUR TEXT i.e. Hello out there... |{{Babel|de|en-3|es-1}} {{Userboxtop}} {{User WikiProject Bolivia}} {{Userboxbottom}} |}
I think that the last two ones look more ordered in your case. Erebedhel - Talk 23:21, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks a lot, it looks good his way. -- Meister (talk) 20:05, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
Jesuit Missions of Chiquitos
Just wanted to let you know that I am working on an article on the Jesuit Missions of Chiquitos. At the moment this World Heritage Site is listed under Chiquitos Province which does not make much sense since only one of the six missions is situated in this province. Comments and/or contributions are very welcome. Cheers! bamse (talk) 15:49, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
- I moved it from my user page. I think the article could need some copy-edit of a native speaker. bamse (talk) 16:04, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
- I am done with the article. After a little bit of copy-edit it should qualify as "good article". I hope to find somebody who could give it a second glance to get some feedback as I cannot see how to improve it further. bamse (talk) 21:35, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
Illustration of articles
I've uploaded in Commons what I believe to be an interesting collection of quality pictures from a trip in Bolivia. You might find some of them to be useful to illustrate some articles related to the country. --S23678 (talk) 07:58, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Great photos. Do you have some more photos of lesser known places in Bolivia? -- Meister (talk) 08:10, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry, I've only had about one week through Bolivia, which was not enough to get out of the beaten path. (not that I would not like to have done so) --S23678 (talk) 17:46, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

There is contention between three editors at War of the Pacific about whether the section on causes of the war should be tagged for undue weight, and as to whether the article needs a substantial rework to better reflect Chilean historiography, Peruvian historiography, and Bolivian historiography.

WikiProject collaboration notice from the Portals WikiProject
The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.
Portals are being redesigned.
The new design features are being applied to existing portals.
At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{Transclude lead excerpt}}.
The discussion about this can be found here.
Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.
Background
On April 8th, 2018, an RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.
Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.
So far, 84 editors have joined.
If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see the newsletter archive.
If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on the WikiProject's talk page.
Thank you. — The Transhumanist 07:27, 30 May 2018 (UTC)

Request for information on WP1.0 web tool
Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.
We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you?

Review of Simón Bolívar at GAN underway, expect FAC soon
Countrymen~! I have news. After a year of labor, Simón Bolívar is finally undergoing a review at GAN on its road to FAC. At either process (or preferably both) I would appreciate eyes, ears, and commentary. I am aiming to at least be in the process of FAC by 24 July 2023, if not to have TFA by then. 17 December 2023 is my fallback goal, and more likely. I look forward to whatever assistance or guidance anybody watching this page can offer or spare. –♠Vamí_IV†♠ 22:53, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
Project-independent quality assessments
Quality assessments are used by Wikipedia editors to rate the quality of articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Wikipedia:Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a |class=
parameter to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.
No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to {{WikiProject banner shell}}, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.
However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass {{WPBannerMeta}} a new |QUALITY_CRITERIA=custom
parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present. Aymatth2 (talk) 20:38, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
Women in Green's 5th Edit-a-thon
Hello WikiProject Bolivia:
WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023!
Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.
We hope to see you there!
