Papat Limpad (English: Four Champions) was a seven-month long writing competition in the Javanese-language Wikipedia.[1] The purpose of this competition was to revitalize the "barely alive" Javanese-language Wikipedia.[2] Javanese Wikipedia started in January 2003, began to have a larger number of regular contributors in mid-2006, and began to see its golden era for seven years in 2008. However, the activity decreased and returned to 2006 status, with only 2 to 1 regular contributors for the last two years.[when?] The Javanese language Wikipedia ranked 71 in the number of pages being viewed by 1.2 million viewers a month (before intervention). Wikimedia Indonesia believes[when?] that Javanese Wikipedia has an untapped potential growth and an untapped potential editor base that needs to be reached.
