Updates regarding WLE-BR
by Rodrigo Padula 10 Feb '15

10 Feb '15

Hello guys, I started the planning and contacts some hours ago and I already have some good news!! Now we are 3 members on the local organization committe ( 1 volunteer, 1 designer and I as facilitator/coordinator) Today I contacted the Brazilian Confederation of Photography and they confirmed the support to the WLE-BR contest. So, they will help us to plan and determine the local contest's regulation and they will help to promote the contest around all 110 photo clubs associated (near 5.000 photographers) covering all Brazilian states/regions. That's a good start!! Best regards Rodrigo Padula

Hello. Prizes are not so trivial in Spain. He applied for a grant but we are looking for partners and sponsors. In case we get them we will not use the whole amount of the grant Santi Enviado de Samsung Mobile -------- Mensaje original -------- De: Konstantinos Stampoulis <geraki(a)geraki.gr> Fecha: Para: Wiki Loves Earth Photograph Competition <wikilovesearth(a)lists.wikimedia.org> Asunto: Re: [Wikilovesearth] Timeframe WLE 2015 Hi! I'm preparing a call to the WM User Group Greece to start organize the competition for May as we were planning last year. Sadly, although we had started preparations in 2014, we didn't manage to organize it fully. I hope we will manage it this year. A question for everyone, regarding prizes: I guess that in countries where there is a chapter, covering the budget was trivial. For others, did you ask for sponsors or for a grant from WMF? What you think is best or easier?

Timeframe WLE 2015
by t springer 05 Feb '15

05 Feb '15

We in Germany are currently discussing a timeframe for WLE 2015. We had 8 weeks (May/June) in 2014. Whilst the time counted for >14.000 uploaded pictures from quite a mass of new users, it also meant a lot of work for the few german volunteers answering questions and helping users. We're currently thinking of May,10th to June, 10th 2015 as timeframe for WLE 2015 Germany. Since the first week of June is a very common excursion-weekend in germany (4 days off for most of the country) we wanted to have the first week of june within the competition. Is there any current planning in other countries? -- thomas.springer(a)gmail.com [nach mir der synflood.]

Wikimedia Uruguay is discussing a timeframe for WLE 2015 too. We were thinking of a similar timeframe as WLE 2015 Germany is. We need more help and guidelines regarding the photocontest, especially in reference to a suitable software to organize and upload the photos.

FW: [cultural-partners] Funding a new gear for WM photographer Poco a poco
by Santiago Navarro Sanz 02 Dec '14

02 Dec '14

Sorry for crossposting:Help one of the best volunteer photographers in Wikimedia Commons restore his stolen equipment. Diego Delso is known as Poco a poco in Wikimedia Commons. In case you don't know, Wikimedia Commons is a media file repository where anyone can share freely-licensed content with everyone. Wikipedia uses Wikimedia Commons as it's image repository, so, in fact, most of the times you view an image in Wikipedia, you are actually viewing a Wikimedia Commons image.While Diego is just one of the thousands of Wikimedia Commons volunteers, he is a very special one: he's one of the main Commons contributors ever, having some amazing records, such as being the user with the highest amount of Featured Pictures ever (153 images) and also the one with the highest amount of quality images ever, with 5,777 Quality Images. That's an awesome amount of very high quality material, that Diego has given to every living person for free.Never heard about Wikimedia Commons? It's the repository that hosts allmultimedia files that you can see (and download) in Wikipedia and all other Wikimedia projects. Diego's files are used in those projects and are also available for everybody else with a free license.Furthermore, Diego has contributed in Wikimedia Commons in other ways. One of them is by supporting (by being an organizer or a jury) two of the most importantphotographic contests in the Wikimedia movement (and in the world!): Wiki Loves Monuments and Wiki Loves Earth.Sadly, while Diego was in Buenos Aires after participating in a Wikimedia Iberoamerican Encounter with other Wikimedia volunteers, he got his equipment stolen. In this unfortunate event, he didn't only lost his camera, zoom lenses and laptop, but also every single picture he took during his 2 weeks trip in South America, which he was going to upload to Wikimedia Commons so they could be used by everyone, everywhere.As Wikimedia volunteers and Diego's friends, we could not stand aside of this, so we decided to help him to restore his equipment. You can help, too, by contributing to this campaign!Our goal is simple: to collect enough money to help Diego to buy exactly the same equipment he lost.All the gear he lost in Argentina is described below, with a reference to the price from Amazon for the same equipment.TipoModeloPreçoCamera bodyCanon EOS 5D Mark II$ 2,694.00Objective fisheye f/4.0Canon EF 8-15mm L USM$ 1,349.00Objective wide-angle f/4.0Canon EF 17-40mm L USM$ 839.00Objective wide-angle to telephoto f/4.0Canon EF 24-105mm L IS UVM$ 1,149.00LaptopAcer Aspire 1810T$ 600.00Total$ 6,631.00 Converted to Euro (since Diego is based in Europe) that goes to 5,300 Euro + 200 euro of Indiegogo fee, which is our target to collect. This campaign is runned on indiegogo.com and the link is https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/funding-a-new-gear-for-wm-photographer-p… You can use the short link http://igg.me/at/pocoapoco in social networks Thank you Santi Navarro
