Hiya! I'm Bouchra (but you can call me Ruby, it's a shortening of my last name), and I've been an off-and-on user of Wikipedia. I'm an entrepreneur with a little agency specializing in translation and content creation, and I'm very passionate about Wikipedia, despite not having done much to prove my passion until now.
I'm planning an event related to Wikipedia in late September, in Algiers, Algeria, and I would appreciate if anyone could help with some pointers and/or resources that would help me.
I'm half-Algerian, half-Sri Lankan, born and bred in Saudi Arabia. I'm a true third-culture kid, and now I'm back in my home country, Algeria, trying to help improve and contribute to it - even on Wikipedia!
Right now, I'm trying to get involved in WiR and I want to work more on WikiProject Algeria. I also want to expand my contributions to the Arabic Wikipedia, as it is of huge importance to me personally to add more valuable Arabic content on the Internet.
I'm working on getting articles of Algerian women writers who aren't on the English Wikipedia translated into English. I will also translate into Arabic any articles on Algerian women writers that are existing on the English or French Wikipedia.
