Wiki Loves Folklore is back this year on Wikimedia commons to be held from

Feel free to organise both the contest locally
We look forward for your immense participation in both the projects.

FYI
Hello all,
The Wikimedia Ghana User Group is looking to develop an interactive website
(with an equally effective and responsive mobile version) to feature a
‘nimble’ step-by-step guide to editing Wikipedia.
The idea is to create a newcomer platform that provides a relatable and
simple user and onboarding experience for new Wikipedia editors.
Thus, this brief one-page survey exists simply to curate your vital
feedback to inform the platform's features and build optimum effectiveness
and simplicity in onboarding future Wikipedia editors.
Thank you in advance for taking this survey; we look forward to connecting
and collaborating with you along the way as we seek to create this tool.
