WikiProject Latin and Hispanic heritage
Great news! WikiProject Latin and Hispanic heritage now covers all French-speaking countries and territories south of the US including Haiti! Feel free to add any Americans who of descendants from this country. Erick (talk) 03:52, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Updates
This may be a call into the void, but I've made many edits to this WikiProject, so I thought I should note them. Pinging Savvyjack23, who has done a lot of good work pioneering the project (and has used the {{WPHaiti-invite}} template extensively). Most noticeably, the main page has been redesigned. It now has a brief mission statement and call to action and a more visible alerts section. I also reformatted and pruned the "Requested articles" page. For each request I didn't remove, I was able to find a few sigcov sources in Haitian newspapers, the dLOC, or the other standard databases. Hopefully it is more reliable and easier to navigate. I'd encourage any interested editors to use it! I can attest that it at least led me to one of my next writing projects. For a few recommendations, Saint-Soleil, the big bands, Karl Lévêque, and the gynecologist(!) caught my eye but, of course, choose whatever seems interesting. I also reworked the "To do" page. It had many requests for improvements to individual pages, but those requests seem to have stagnated, so I thought a bulleted list of broader tasks might be more effective.
At least for now, this WikiProject seems dormant, but that's okay. I'll at least stick around and watchlist a few project pages, maybe invite other editors I have come across who seem interested in Haiti-related topics. And maybe the next WP:DCWC will attract more activity. Either way, I would always be happy to give advice for or collaborate on any articles. Just send me a ping!

Notices
To anyone interested, The World Destubathon begins in 4 days, and there are countless stub articles of all kinds to choose from. I will be busy the first few days but hope to expand a few entries.
As well, I have created a very unofficial Custom Google search engine for this WikiProject. It collects the (in my eyes) major Haitian news and radio sites, but beyond the obvious inclusions, I have not carefully vetted each site, much less has the community, so take it with a large grain of salt. It seems like a useful tool for expanding articles, though, especially ones about recent topics. Here are the sites included:
- alterpresse.org
- ayibopost.com
- haitienmarche.com
- haitiliberte.com
- haitiprogres.com
- hebdo24.com
- lenational.org
- lenouvelliste.com
- haitiantimes.com
- juno7.ht
- loopnews.com
- signalfmhaiti.com
- metropole.ht
- haitiinter.com
I am willing to add or remove sites. Averageuntitleduser (talk) 22:06, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
The DCWC is back!

WikiProject Haiti, 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).
