Instagram and Creative Commons
by Andrea Zanni 27 Nov '22

27 Nov '22

Dear all, a doubt: is Instagram compatible with Creative Commons? Can I upload *my* Instagram pics on Commons (so could it be used for WLM)? Please consider that I'm not suggesting Instagram pics are good for WLM (they are filtered and all, probably not very suitable for illustrating monuments on Wikipedia) but is a legal matter. Aubrey

Uploading using wrong link.

Question about manual tagging of photos
by Karen Mardahl 27 Sep '19

27 Sep '19

Hello I need clarification about adding manual tags. As I understand it, if a monument is recognised as an official monument in my country, but we don't have the latest updates in our lists, then the user can add a tag manually. Is this correct? A user has already done this for this photo and wants to know if this is correct: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Kvæsthusgraven_København_2019_08_04… Can someone confirm that this looks OK? I assume that manual tagging means you upload a photo to Commons like you normally would do. Then you go back in and add a tag. Can someone confirm that it is this one: {{Wiki Loves Monuments 2019|country-code}} I appreciate your help. Regards, Karen Mardahl, WLM Denmark

[WLM announce] Notification to WLM uploaders without e-mail enabled
by Jean-Frédéric 26 Sep '19

26 Sep '19

Hi all, A belated e-mail to announce a feature that has been running for a week or so. Every three minutes, ErfgoedBot retrieves the list of users who uploaded, in the last few minutes, pictures marked as participating to WLM. If an uploader has not enabled e-mail, the bot leaves a message on their talk page explaining that it is necessary to win a prize (unless it has already notified that user). You can help translating the message in more languages at: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:WLM-enable-email/i18n https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:WLM-enable-email/heading/i18n We hope that this will help to avoid situations of winning pictures with no email enabled, only detected much later when the uploader is not around anymore. You can see the original requirements at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T195341 Thank you to: * Lodewijk for the original idea * André for the code-review * Michael Maggs for some much needed polishing of the message prose Hope this helps, -- Jean-Fred _______________________________________________ WLM-Announce mailing list WLM-Announce(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wlm-announce

[WLM announce] How to Nominate
by Erina Mukuta 26 Sep '19

26 Sep '19

Dear national coordinators, jury coordinators, Thank you for the amazing work done in the past weeks and months in organizing wiki loves Monuments 2019. As you know, the international Wiki Loves Monuments competition is based on a federalized model: there's a national competition in each country, with a national organizing team, a national jury and national winners. The national jury determines up to (maximum) 10 images that will be submitted to the international finale. These ten images should be submitted via email to the international jury coordinator before the deadline: erinamukuta(a)gmail.com. Unless you have agreed a different deadline with Lily (in cc), this deadline is 31 October, 23:59 UTC. Your encouraged to send them at least a few days before that time. Submissions after this deadline are not guaranteed to be included in the finale. When submitting your finalists, please take these instructions into account: * Submit no more than ten images per (national) competition. It is OK to submit less images, for example if you don't find enough images of high quality. * Submit the images to: erinamukuta(a)gmail.com , and include in the CC at least one (additional) jury member besides yourself. Please also include lilyofthewest.wikimedia(a)gmail.com in the cc. * If the results are still not public (if you plan to announce them later publicly), please add the planned announcement date. Please note that we will announce the international winners in December, and will not wait for national announcements. * Submit for each image: URL, File name on Wikimedia Commons and Author username * Check basic information about the images. It is NOT possible to replace finalists after the deadline! ** that the author has activated their email function on Wikimedia Commons. If we cannot email the user there, they may automatically forfeit any prize. You can help them by posting a message on their talk page, or tracking them down through social media. ** that the monument on the image is identified (preferably also described in English) ** that the image is freely licensed *If you want to use the jury tool, please sign up for it( https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons_talk:Montage#Wiki_Loves_Monument… ) If you want, there are opportunities to share your national winners also on the international blog. Please get in touch with either of us about this - more information about this soon. Thanks a lot for your cooperation. After all nominees have been received, this will result in a pool of some 350-430 images for the international jury to consider. The international jury is described on this page. The jury will first rate all images with 1-5 stars, from which a top-40/60 will be considered. Then, the jurors will have the opportunity to remove images from the selection, which they consider unfit. Finally, they are asked to rank their top-25 images, and share their reasoning. We will create a jury report based on this information. We expect to announce the results in the first two weeks of December (depending on the swiftness of jury report creation and media opportunities). We're looking forward to the judging process! With warm regards, Erina Mukuta International Jury coordinator _______________________________________________ WLM-Announce mailing list WLM-Announce(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wlm-announce

UNESCO promoting WLM and translating the participate page
by john cummings 24 Sep '19

24 Sep '19

Hi all Just a note to say I can ask UNESCO again to promote WLM, however I got some pushback last year because the page to find your country is only available in English. <goog_921670993> https://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/participate/ It would make it much much more likely I can convince them again to promote it if this page could be available in French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and Russian also.

Help us improve a framework for supporting content campaigns!
by Alex Stinson 23 Sep '19

23 Sep '19

Hello everyone, Apologies for cross-posting, and please forward to communities who you think will be interested. In light of the movement’s increased focus on diversity and becoming essential infrastructure for diverse human knowledge, the Community Programs team at the WMF has begun investigating the use of content campaigns in the movement. Campaigns are some of the most reliable ways to create new content and introduce new contributors to the movement, but we have a lot of questions like: What are the different steps that our community organizers have to go through in order to organize campaigns and contests such as Wiki Loves Monuments, Wikipedia Asian Month, #1lib1ref Wikidata Menu Challenge etc.? What are the tools that are being used in organizing these campaigns and contests such as PetScan, Listeria, CitationHunt, Fountain, wscontest tool, Outreach Dashboard etc.? During some initial research into the space, we have developed a draft Organizer Framework <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Campaigns/Organizer_Framework>[1] that highlights key stages in organizing any campaign/contest and the documentation that we could find supporting those stages. Now, we need your help us improve the framework so that we can help less experienced organizers understand how to better support content campaigns. Please join us in discussing the framework and provide feedback on the talk page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Campaigns/Organizer_Frame…>[2] or connect with us on the discuss forum.[3] If you want to reach out directly, feel free to email us at astinson(a)wikimedia.org or sgill(a)wikimedia.org. Thanks, Alex Stinson and Satdeep Gill [1] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Campaigns/Organizer_Framework [2] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Campaigns/Organizer_Framework [3] https://discuss-space.wmflabs.org/t/feedback-on-content-campaigns-framework… -- Alex Stinson Senior Program Strategist Wikimedia Foundation Twitter:@glamwiki/@sadads Learn more about how the communities behind Wikipedia, Wikidata and other Wikimedia projects partner with cultural heritage organizations: https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM

What to say on the radio about WLM?
by Karen Mardahl 12 Sep '19

12 Sep '19

Hi, I am a bit nervous because a journalist wants to interview me on the national radio in Denmark today about WLM. What do I say?!?! I am not afraid of speaking to groups and such, but I have little preparation and the Wikimedia PR person just retired! Plus I am the one responsible for WLM so it is my duty to be the one to talk. I have no idea how long this will last. 3 minutes at most. Maybe 5 if I am lucky or unlucky! The journalist thought it was a great thing that all citizens can try and it involved open data, CC, and all that. Those might be the themes. What would you say and does anyone have a template (in English preferably - too nervous for my French) for talking about WLM to the press? Thanks so much!!

All images that are nominated as the top-10 by the national juries are eligible for this prize and a dedicated jury will take a decision on this in November. One restriction is that all three prizes have to go to a different country. More information about all prizes this year: https://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/awards/ Warmly, and looking forward to many exciting pictures this year.

Social Media Tips to Increase WLM Participation
by Mohammad Hekmat 06 Sep '19

06 Sep '19

Hi all, We are only 5 days into WLM 2019 and so far it's been amazing! More than 28000 photos already! Kudos to all local organizers! The international team has been promoting the contest on its social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram and Twitter). We do our best to reach out to as many people as possible,but in many cases, due to language barrier, it's much more effective to do promotion in the local language. We've noticed increased activity on social media by national competitions and we certainly hope this momentum carries over until the end of the contest. Here are some tips to help you promote your campaign on social media: 1. Link all your social media to each other so when you post on one, it automatically shows up on the other ones. Linking Facebook and Instagram accounts is pretty straightforward and you can do it from either platform. Instagram stories can be shared on Facebook stories as well. If you'd like to share your FB and IG posts on Twitter you can use IFTTT <https://ifttt.com/>service. It has some limitations (e.g., for posts with multiple images) but overall it's quite useful. 2. Make use of WLM stats page <https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikiloves/monuments/2019>. It's a wonderful tool to keep track of your local contest. You can see the total number of uploads, number of users, and the daily breakdown. It also shows where you stand in comparison to other national campaigns. 3. Stay active throughout the month of September. In addition to making posts make sure to like relevant posts and encourage those who are potential participants by commenting under their posts/photos. 4. Use Facebook and Instagram stories to keep your audience engaged. If you have a large follower base, consider running a live event (e.g., Instagram Live) for your audience to go live and ask questions. 5. It's hard to constantly generate content. There are some easy ways that will help you make a post without too much work. The best way is to share someone else's story or post. One easy trick is again the stats. Everyday the international team shares the stats in a story. For example, today we posted "25882 photos so far and so far and counting, Ukraine 4156, Italy 3244 ..." This is a good way of keeping the excitement alive. 6. Be proactive! If you see a profile on social media with monument photos invite them to share their photos through WLM. This is perhaps one of the most effective ways. Typically, I leave a comment like this: "Great pics of cultural heritage. Please consider sharing your photos on Wikipedia through Wiki Loves Monuments photography competition. It runs through Sep. 30 with the goal of visual documentation of monuments on Wikipedia." This encourages people to join and puts all the keywords (monument, Wikipedia ...) in a short message. 7. It's all about word of mouth so ask your followers/friends to be your ambassadors and encourage others to join. Previous years' participants are typically excellent candidates to help with promotion. 8. If you have access to people with large accounts ask them to tell their followers about WLM. This, if done correctly, can help a lot. When Wikipedia account on Instagram started following us and told about us to their followers we immediately got many new followers. 9. Make sure to update your information on this page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki /Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2019/Social_Media <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2018/Social…> so we keep you in mind when promoting WLM on our social media 10. Consider switching to a business profile on Instagram. It allows you to look at stats and performance of each post and the overall audience of your account. It's free and contrary to what the name suggests won't make you look like a business. You can select the category to be: Community Organization 11. If there is a specific monument that you want to have a photo of, you can easily find people who have photos of that monument on social media. Let's say you want photos of Ruins of Kilwa Kisiwani in Tanzania. If you search #KilwaKisiwani on Instagram you will find 280 photos with this tag. Some of them look good for Wikipedia. You can then just leave a comment or send a message to the photographer and ask them to submit the photo through WLM. This works particularly well with countries that have a short list of monuments or the newcomers to WLM who don't have a large follower base. If we have missed you or you feel you'd want us to mention you more frequently, please send an email to wikilovesmonuments.insta(a)gmail.com. Thanks and good luck, Mohammad

Tool for WLM local contests stats
by Ferdinando Traversa 03 Sep '19

03 Sep '19

Hi, in Italy we have some regional contests so, because they can’t be added to WLM global stats, I created a tool to collect stats about WLM regional contests and other special contests. It’s based on Commons categories (so it can be used for almost everything). Jean-Frèderic, the WLM stats tool maintainer, suggested me to share it here. You can find the source code on https://github.com/ferdi2005/concorsi-locali and a living instance about Italy on https://statistiche.puglia.wiki Tell me if you need an instance for your regional and local contest, I’ll be happy to help.

Banners
by effe iets anders 01 Sep '19

01 Sep '19

Hi everyone, With the help of Seddon at the WMF we have been working over the past while to redesign the banners to make them more effective over a range of devices, use standing best practices from fundraising on what we think is effective, and make it more feasible to test effectiveness down the line. This means that the banners will be redesigned a bit compared to what you may have been used to. We will use a default design as usual, that you will be able to see here <https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wiki_Loves_Monuments&banner=wlm2…> (adjust language and country code to play with it), with a logo on the left and a standardized and translated text in the middle. By default, we will not show an image on the right (due to visibility concerns). Note that there are some known issues such as wrong url which should disappear once the banner goes 'live'. This does mean that we'll have to be more conservative with requests to tweak the design a little without really good reasons. For example, we will keep the logo on the left and the color scheme of the banner consistent across countries. This will help with branding, but the most important thing is that it will help with scaling (all the different requests make it harder and harder to maintain). If you have a particularly good reason for your country, it is again possible to change the text and the image on the right for your country. You can request this here <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2019/Centra…>. I know some countries have requested very particular changes (different background colors, border colors) which will unfortunately not be an option right now. We expect that the new design will overall still be an improvement for everyone. Good luck with the last bits of the preparations! Best, Lodewijk (on behalf of the international team)

known bug: country in banner
by effe iets anders 01 Sep '19

01 Sep '19

Hi everyone, just to make you aware: there's a known problem that people sometimes see the banner for a country that they recently visited. This means that many of you will see the banner for Sweden or Denmark. The vast majority of the people in your country should see the regular banner for your country though. I believe this is a known issue (can't find it on phabricator currently) and is being worked on. Best, Lodewijk
