year's WLE, the contest will starts on May, 1st. Here are a few tips the
international team would like to share with you:
* Please make sure your team members register for wlemailing list
<https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikilovesearth>not to miss
important announcements.
* Make sure that you go through this todo list
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2017/Organise>,
if you already haven't. We recommend that the landing page for each country
accessed via the this list
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2017> be in
English (You can link from there to your local language(s) page) or have at
least one section in English that can help the international people
participate.
* A list of protected areas, and the categories about the protected areas
on Commons ar also important things that should be visible
* Consider reaching out to your local media and encourage the coverage of
the contest's launch
*Please drop your news or on the contest workflow, or links to your posts
so we could share via WLE Facebook and Twitter. You can message them
directly to WLE page <https://www.facebook.com/interwle>
*Use #WLE2017 #WikiLovesEarth in your posts so we could find them
* Add press mentions to a subpage [3]
* Please tell us what kind of assistance you would like to get from the
international team! Just email us at wle-team(a)wikimedia.org.ua
