In the first years of Wikipedia wikis were created in a lot of languages. Some became thriving communities, and some... have not. Some, unfortunately, receive almost no contributions for years. But there are also some cases in which a wiki came back to life after years of stagnation: Punjabi, Nyanja, Hausa, Tatar, and others. This presentation will learn from success stories and show how to Be Bold and make your wiki as active and thriving as wikis in other languages: * Why for some languages it may make more sense to (also) write in projects other than Wikipedia, especially Wikisource and Wikibooks * How to find technical blockers for growth and fix them * How to choose topics to write about * How to clean up existing content * How to invite more people to contribute * How to communicate with Wikipedians who speak other languages and get help from them [[Category:2019:Languages submissions]]
