Ayubowan, Vanakam and Welcome to the Wikipedia Sri Lankan Collaboration!!!

The mission of the Sri Lankan Collabarotion is to get wiki up to date with Sri Lankan information ,specially arts ,culture ,history and politics.

Selecting the next Collaboration

Voting

Please vote for as many of the following candidates as you like. Please add only support votes. Opposing votes will not affect the result, as the winner is simply the one with the most support votes (see Approval voting).

Only registered users should vote. Any Wikipedian can vote on this page. You do not have to be Sri Lankan.

To enter your votes, simply edit the appropriate sections by just inserting a new line with "# ~~~~". This will add your username and a time stamp in a new numbered list item.

Tie-breakers

In case of a tie, voting will be extended for 24 hours. If there is still a tie, the candidate that was nominated first wins.

Nominations

New nominations can be made at any time and should be added at the end of this page. Please use the template.

If the page you are nominating already exists, please add {{Sri Lankan Collaboration candidate|Thispage=Article name}} to the top of its talk page. This expands to:

Finding pages to Nominate

The Sri Lankan stubs section has many articles which need expanding. Find one you think is important and nominate it.

Considerations for nominations

• Please only nominate Sri Lankan articles which don't currently exist or are stubs. (Two paragraphs or less of information or fewer than 1,000 characters – also try Sri Lankan stubs) If you have an article that is not related to Sri Lanka please use Collaboration of the week, which is not specific to Sri Lanka-related articles.
  • For non-stubs, submitting the article to pages needing attention, cleanup, peer review, this week's improvement drive or requests for expansion may be more appropriate.
• Giving reasons as to why an article should become the SLC may assist others in casting their vote.
• Can the wider community easily contribute to the article? Or is it something only a small number of people will know about?

Pruning

Nominations will be moved to /Removed if it has not received any votes in the first six months of being nominated (excluding the person who nominated it). If a candidate has no vote, its nominator may withdraw his nomination. Feel free to perform pruning that meets the above criteria. Please see the talk page for discussion of this change in pruning policy.

D.S. Senanayake

Father of the nation. Deserves a good article. And lots of material about him to be found on the internet so shouldn't be hard to write a comprehensive article.

Buddhism and violence

Nominated: January 29th, 2018.

The page seems quite biased starts of fine but later as it progresses it speaks about Sri Lankan history to turn to another topic which speaks about war crimes and other topics when this happens the page becomes abstract it is stated by multiple users that the page is biased and it lacks content which is clearly evident as nearly 50% of the page is about Sri Lanka.The page should be neutral not picking a side which whoever has written the page has

Comments:

• I feel that this article needs some more facts and research as it should not be biased

Potential Candidates

Use this space to add (minor) articles that don't warrant a total collaborative effort, but still need work from the community.

• University of Kelaniya - The information from the university website needs to be distilled and copyedited, to fit wikipedia style. Missing information needs to be found. Lastnode 14:12, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

• Chandrika Kumaratunga - Formatting errors, as well as accusations of bias. Lastnode 14:53, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

• Solomon West Ridgeway Dias Bandaranaike - Picture needed. Lastnode 14:53, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

• Elections in Sri Lanka - Stub, which badly needs expanding. Lastnode 14:54, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
