Dear all,
We are pleased to announce Wiki Loves Earth 2019 — the 6th edition of Wiki Loves Earth international photo contest, which will take place in May and June this year. The previous five contests have attracted more than 500,000 photos on Commons (see https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikiloves/earth), and we hope that Wiki Loves Earth 2019 will show even better results.
And we need your help to make it happen! You can:
== Organise a local contest ==
If you are interested in organising Wiki Loves Earth 2019 photo contest in your country — please do it! We would gladly help you with the first steps.
== Join the International team ==
If you do not plan to participate in organising a local contest and want to help other countries/affiliates/groups to organise it — please consider joining the international team. Write a letter to wle-team@wikimedia.org.ua describing your experience with organising projects (especially photo contests!). And please mention what languages you speak. Note that if you want to organise a contest locally — you should not be a part of the international team.
Please sign up on the talk page if you are interested in performing specific tasks.
== Suggest a jury member ==
If you know good nature photographers (whether they are from Wikiprojects or not!), please tell us! We will contact them and see if they can become jury members of local or international contests.
== Spread information ==
Please share info about the contest, translate the main page of the contest into your languages, post on social media etc. If you have an interesting story to share, please contact us at wle-team@wikimedia.org.ua or on social media.
Please subscribe to our blog and follow accounts on social media:
Best regards,
