Hello everyone
I need urgent help for the Wiki Loves Africa photo contest.
The contest starts in less than 24 hours. Due to family issues, Romaine,
who set up our site notice and landing pages last years, appears to be
missing in action.
As a result, we have no site notice set up (which is something annoying,
but at worse... we will do for a few days without a site notice, just
some fun on Facebook and Twitter and blogs).
But there is also no dedicated upload wizard (which is significantly
more annoying as pictures will not get taggued and categorized.
So... I am looking for someone who know how to do this and I thought WLE
and WLM were places where I could find such person maybe...
We do not start from nowhere.
== Landing pages ==
I know that I do not know how to do it (been there, done that).
Last year landing pages and messages are listed there :
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2017#Site…
And I already put the elements that Romaine usually asks me (the
language, image etc.) here :
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2017#Site…
Does anyone know how to do a dedicated upload system ? Does anyone know
someone who know how to do that ? Who can help us ?
== Banners==
Banner wise, we used two banners last year, which may be reused probably
in a very similar way.
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:CentralNotice&subactio…
If someone knows how to create the campaign and two banners for 2017 out
of the 2016 model... that would be awesome.
But I think that I can probably do it myself and if needed, I'll do it
tomorrow. I am less worried about this one (perhaps I should though ;))
Anyway... biggest problem at the moment is really no landing page with
upload tool.
Your help would be very very very very welcome
Florence

Hi,
1. Congratulations on the great pictures from Serbia, Libya and Tunisia and
may they fare well in the international part of the contest! You are
welcome to publish a blog post on the www.wikilovesearth.org blog or give
us a hint to publish top-ten without extra commentaries :)

2. We`d be happy to know if everything is OK with other national WLE
contests and if you need any help or advice from the international team,
please contact.
3. All who are at the stage of starting selection process, please, have a
look at this Learning pattern related to WLE as well
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Learning_patterns/Selecting_winners_of_a_la…
4. How about sharing selecting schemes with mentioning what worked well and
not well, so to have page with cases for future contests or contribute
more to Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2017/Organise
Should it be a page on Commons?
p.s. In Ukraine, we are done with pre-selection round and have delivered to
the juries only 2000 photos (from total 15 000). There will be 3
jury-rounds.

Hi all,
About an hour ago the Wiki Loves Earth contest in Germany closed. Shortly
after it was noticed that there were still uploads that contain the contest
template {{Wiki Loves Earth 2017xx}}.
With some of the images it looks like the uploader started uploading before
the contest ended, but finished after. We will investigate what causes
this, a bug or change in the software.
With other images it was clear that those have been added manually by the
uploader.
With earlier photo contests there was a bot that removed the contest
template, hopefully this bot still runs to fix these errors soon.
If you notice that a contest template is added to a file that was uploaded
outside the contest period, please just remove the above mentioned file.
Thanks!
Romaine
