**Synopsis**
The Wikipedia App for the Portuguese speaking community has challenges and these challenges have been voted on in order of their priority to the community. This project aims to solve the top voted challenges in this [[ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Lista_de_desejos_tecnol%C3%B3gicos_da_lusofonia/2023/Propostas | wishlist proposals ]] namely [[ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Lista_de_desejos_tecnol%C3%B3gicos_da_lusofonia/2023/Propostas/Ferramenta_que_liste_p%C3%A1ginas_com_links_quebrados | A tool that finds deadlinks in a page ]] and [[ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Lista_de_desejos_tecnol%C3%B3gicos_da_lusofonia/2023/Propostas/Ativar_o_InternetArchiveBot_na_Wikip%C3%A9dia_em_portugu%C3%AAs | activating the archivebot for Portuguese Wikipedia ]]. With time, I will add other proposals from the wishlist as well. The aim is to tackle these challenges and present a feasible solution.
This will improve writing for the Portuguese community making it easier for them to create content.
