Hello everyone,
The long pending reports of Wiki Loves Monuments 2019's Participant and Organizer surveys have now been published on Wikimedia Commons. You may access them at the following links;
- Participant Survey: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/59/Wiki_Loves_Monuments_201... - National/regional organizers can request survey results for their country (if there were at least 10 responses). Additionally, in the survey, we asked if people would like to help in organizing, as lack of human resources is one of the most commonly reported challenges by national organizers. To this, about 60% of the survey respondents said yes; if you need this data, you may also seek that. You can place a request at https://forms.gle/PSKxCS9nV2yFdXXK8. *If you have already placed a request, the same will be fulfilled within the next couple of days.* - Organizer Survey: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/82/Wiki_Loves_Monuments_201... - It would be a good resource for organizers who are planning to organize the contest to go through this report, and learn what other organizers had reported as advice, new ideas, and challenges.
Sorry for enormous delay caused in conducting these surveys, and then publishing the reports. It was because it is the first time we did such an extensive survey, and response was overwhelming. It will be much better and faster for the upcoming iteration.
Stay safe, happy reading! Krishna C V.
