Esilda Villa
[edit]I am posting this here in the event project page stalkers might be able to help. I really wanted to write her story for lawyer's month. But she is not on WP.es and what I find is tantalizing, but insufficient documentation. This says she passed her legal exams in November 1928.[1] This says she was denied a license to practice because she had not completed the mandatory military service.[2] This says she became Bolivia's first woman lawyer on 22 January 1938.[3] Did it really take her ten years? She was involved in the First Feminist Congress in Bolivia as well.[4] There is a biography, [5] in the archives of La Paz. Anyone want to collaborate on her bio? Please ping me. Thanks!

RfC on election/referendum naming format
[edit]An RfC on moving the year from the end to the start of article titles (e.g. South African general election, 2019 to 2019 South African general election) has been reopened for further comment, including on whether a bot could be used move the articles if it closed in favour of the change: Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (government and legislation)#Proposed change to election/referendum naming format.

Hardeman, Bolivia
[edit]Formation of Hardeman
The Flood of 1968 in a zone of northern Santa Cruz, Bolivia, caused displacement of many people living on small farms. Many of these refugees were sheltered in schools in Montero. The refugees eventually were given land in El Bosque del Niño Perdido, and formed the Colonia Hardeman.

Content suggestions on Bolivia main page
[edit]There is currently a discussion as a result of content reversals which lacks participants and unfortunately is not very content-specific.
Would be nice to see some (more) opinions concerning the reversed suggestions.

Colorado Lake Proposed Delete by Redirect to Laguna Colorada
[edit]The Colorado Lake is a minimal stub and has a number of errors (e.g. wrong department). The full page on the Lake/Laguna is Laguna Colorada so I'd suggest turning Colorado Lake into a redirect. Mentioned on the talk page for Colorado Lake. Unsure about how one starts a discussion for consensus. PsamatheM (talk) 19:36, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
- Following discussion with no objections Colorado Lank now "deleted by redirect" following merge into Laguna Colorada PsamatheM (talk) 12:26, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Starting this July, we will see a new contest on the scene - the Developing Countries WikiContest (WP:DCWC)! Think of it as a WikiCup but only for articles and media on developing countries.
Competitors may submit GAs, GTs, FAs, FTs, FLs, FPs, and DYK and ITN entries from/on developing countries to gain points and proceed to further rounds. Points are also awarded to those who review GAs, FAs and FLs.
Bolivia is listed as a developing country for the purposes of this contest, so articles related to it are eligible to be submitted to the contest. I encourage everyone here to sign up and compete with editors from around the world to create high-quality content!
Append your name to the DCWC signup page today!

Wikiproject
[edit]Would anyone be interested in joining a sub project of WP:Anthropology on oral tradition? WP's coverage of this is quite poor atm imo Kowal2701 (talk) 17:40, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello. Project members are invited to participate in The World Destubathon. We're aiming to destub a lot of articles and also improve longer stale articles. It will be held from Monday June 16 - Sunday July 13. There is $3338 going into it, with $500 the top prize. If you are interested in winning some vouchers to help you buy books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for your project, sign up if interested.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:29, 31 May 2025 (UTC)
The DCWC is back!
[edit]
WikiProject Bolivia, the Developing Countries WikiContest will be returning for a second year, and sign-ups are now open! The contest will run from 1 July to 30 September, and the objective remains the same: improve as many articles relating to developing countries as you can to help fight systemic bias on Wikipedia.
In other news, we have a new face on the coordinator team this year: last year's sixth-place finisher, Arconning (talk · contribs)! The coordinators would like to extend a sincere thanks to Ixtal (talk · contribs), who is leaving the team, without whom the contest would not exist. After feedback from contestants last year, the scoring rules are undergoing some modifications; the new rules and a summary of the changes made will be posted to the contest talk page shortly.
If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page, use the {{@DCWC coordinators}} template, or contact one of the coordinators: Arconning (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).

The article Federación Sindical Única de Trabajadores Campesinos de Cochabamba has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Tagged as Unreferenced and for notability for more than 13 years.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
