Hi everyone,
As Ciell shared a few days ago, the winners announcement will take place on
18 April. As part of that process, we are finalising the jury's report
(this was, for example, the one in 2017:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/73/2017_WLM_International_…);
however, we do not currently have the capacity to do a proper
layout/design, so if anyone has the availability and expertise to do so, we
would greatly appreciate any help with this task.
Please let me know if there are any questions.
Best,

hello there!
has anyone tried locally to organise something around outreach to
photographers whose pictures were made on photographic films?
we have not had such a campaign in Ukraine before, just individual efforts,
like when a Wikipedian convinced an old photographer to upload his pictures
of lost heritage to Commons, they had to scan his films to do that:
https://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/photos-of-destroyed-heritage/
as this year (to make sure people are not roaming around taking pictures
for their own safety) for the Ukrainian part of the contest we decided to
accept only pictures taken before February 24, 2022, we thought of maybe
looking for ways to reach this audience -- photographers whose pictures are
on films, so most probably old enough... but maybe there are some
tips/things to be aware of when dealing with scanned films, and somebody on
the list has travelled down this path already, and can share useful
information?
(sorry for crossposting, i have also asked about this on the telegram
channel)

Hi everyone,
I know this question must have been on all of your minds in recent weeks:
"When will the winners of Wiki Loves Monuments 2022 be announced?"
I am happy to share that the jury has concluded their process, and the
international team is working towards the winners announcement taking place
on *Tuesday the 18th of April*. The countdowns will happen on Instagram
<https://www.instagram.com/wikilovesmonuments/> and Twitter
<https://twitter.com/wikimonuments>, and we'll share a blogpost on Diff
<https://diff.wikimedia.org/> and our own wikilovesmonuments.org with a
summary of all the winning photographs.
Like in previous years, we have worked on a schedule where we announce the
runners up (25-16 place) first, and after a break will continue with the
announcements of places 15-1. We try to consider the local time zones of
the winners as much as possible and it's always a bit of a puzzle, so let
me share the exact window of the announcements with you later.
Please let me know if there are any questions.
Best,
Ciell
