Hello everyone!
We are glad to inform you about the Wiki Loves Africa 2021-WPWP campaign
prize categories.
Every year, thousands of images are uploaded to Wikimedia Commons
database as part of the
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Africa Wiki Loves
Africa photo contest.
Most of these images end up on...let's say English Wikipedia, but we
believe it would be great to use these same images in the equivalent
articles in different languages!
So this year, we invite you to take some time to use Wiki Loves Africa
images to illustrate Wikipedia articles in various languages. And there
are prizes for the most involved!
1st prize - US $100 gift card
1st to 3rd prizes - WLA souvenirs (if the post office is more efficient
than it has been in the recent 18 months...)
All Wiki Loves Africa years are eligible (All pictures are available
here
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wiki_Loves_Africa_All_Images)...
BUT the first prize will consider edits made to any language except
English and French.
To be eligible:
* you must add #WLA as a hashtag to your edit (as well as #WPWP)
* you must have registered your account before January 2021
* you must have made at least 300 mainspace edits to any language
Wikipedia before 1st June 2021.
