Hello!

Write and Earn (or just help out)

[edit]

Hello there. This is the first time I've asked, so I'll get straight to the point:

About a year ago, a certain Wikipedian thought he could motivate people to build a knowledge base such as Wikipedia but about twice as fast by incorporating a per-author empowerment strategy. His idea was to mirror Wikipedia and allows anyone to monetize her article and reap 100% revenue thereof.

So, around this time last year this project was up. At the outset, there were at least two features that distinguished Wikiafripedia from Wikipedia, viz: dedicated namespaces for scholars original research and his empowerment strategy. But there were many similarities, such as the website software, editorial principle, governing structure, mission and vision.

However, his project has since been struggling as there are very few contributes to it because, unlike Wikipedia this dude didn't start Wikiafripedia at the beginning of the millennia and also lacked the capacity to advertise it or reach out to a huge number of potential editors like you. Yet he hasn't given up.

He likes Wikipedia but he thinks if people were empowered/motivated properly they would solved the current shortage of quality content from third-war regions like South-East Asia or Africa since empowered-people would more likely want to contribute more. It's also Important to motivate people because, the kind of writing required for these kind of projects takes people's time and for most people especially those in these regions, time is penny. To this light, we need your support.

Today, we need you to create an article to grow the knowledge base of Wikiafripedia. 90% of our readers don't write; they simply look the other way. You may not be our reader but we need you because you believe knowledge should be made free and accessible. But if you are an exceptional reader who have already written, we sincerely thank you.

If everyone reading this write at least an article, we could augment the knowledge based of the world that will empower many people financially yet freely accessible to anyone and keep Wikiafripedia thriving for years. A bit of your time is all we need, it's a little awkward for us to ask you this Today, as we are sure you are busy and we don't mean to interrupt you.

However, we encourage you to make a contribution today towards a win-win end of simultaneously growing Wikiafripedia encyclopedia and at the same time empowering yourself passively.

People think we will regret making Wikiafripedia a non-profit and sharing revenue with authors. But Wikiafripedia is a place to encourage learning, not a place to tax people. It unites all of us who love knowledge: contributors, readers, the donors and advertisers who keep us thriving. Show the world that all the knowledge and experience it afforded you to live your life matters by adding also your light to it in the form of a well written-neutral-article in a subject area that you have knowledge and access to the information of, so that anyone may benefit from your knowledge.

We know most people will want to ignore this message, and that it can be tricky to make a contribution to even a course you believed in without the right resources, as one cannot give what she does not have. That's why we are giving you all 100% advertising revenue from your content.

There will be no deduction in your earnings, for each content you authored (100%) and this terms is only subject to review every ten years since 2019. We wouldn't even know how much you're earning from your preferred advertisers for the Wikiafripedia content you authored as that will only be known to you, we can only guess if we look at the performance of the content; our work is to help implement your ads codes securely. Your earnings progress will largely depends on the number of contents you've created (the more the better) and the level of publicity you've given to each of them, as we enforced strict contents quality and SEO globally.

Notwithstanding... We know that people might still ignore this message, and that it can be tricky to make time to contribute what you know for the benefits of others. But our hope is that, if you can write/edit articles for free on Wikipedia, why not with an incentive on Wikiafripedia? I hope you will think about how valuable it is to have access to a source of free, open knowledge that would Keep giving you money instead of asking. This is the first feature that distinguished Wikiafripedia from other encyclopedias.

If Wikiafripedia have provided you valued worth of knowledge/information/reflection this year, please take time out of your busy schedule to contribute to it growth. It is NOT money we ask but that you contribute your knowledge or technical expertise to help make free from copyright educational resources available and accessible to all in abundance. Imagine a world where everyone can freely share in the sum of all knowledge? That's our mission, our vision statement.


In a nutshell:
At Wikiafripedia, you will be able to monetize contents you've created for an undeductable (100%) revenue to you and you alone. What's your thoughts about that?

Please speak your mind.


Cheers

Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria (July–December 2021)

[edit]

Hi BlueAcidball. I have moved an article that you started (Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria (July–December 2021)) into draft space because it's too incomplete for an article in the mainspace. You can take your time to work on it at Draft:Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria (July–December 2021). Once you're satisfied that it is properly expanded and referenced, you can move it back to article space or better yet, ask a third party to check that the draft is ok and then move the article. (I could do that if you wish). Best, Pichpich (talk) 19:29, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
