@Sadads @Udehb-WMF @EUwandu-WMF and @Iflorez: Do you have any recommendations on a reasonable limit to number of wikis that can be associated with an event. Perhaps 100 wikis, as a starting point? For example, it seems like Wiki for Human Rights had about 50 languages in 2024, based on a quick scan of this page.

cc @gonyeahialam about this discussion in progress

Most events that are "targeting" a wiki, would not have more than 10 or 20, a well participated in writing contest might have 40, otherwise the organizer would probably be selecting the "all wikis" option. I think a limit of 50 or 100 would handle most situations and unexpected use cases.

Great, thank you, @Sadads! I think a 100 wiki limitation sounds good then.

In that case, @Daimona & @MHorsey-WMF, what do you think about a 100 wiki limitation for specifying the wiki of the event? Do you have any concerns from a technical perspective?

And cc @gonyeahialam, in case any design thoughts come up.

Sounds good, but also noting that if the limit is 100, it won't help with simplifying the UX for the MVP as proposed in T366765#9949906.

Though it doesn't simplify the design as @Daimona mentioned but we can work with it.
