I wouldn't say it wasn't well organized. It was nicely organized, at least, being the first time it happened. Of course, there will be improvements in subsequent events held, but it wasn't a failure this year. Trust me.
The continental organization is planned accordingly and all is well.
The jury we're currently looking for is to handle the images from Ghana. Some of us uploaded pictures thus aren't technically qualified to be part of a jury, simply because of Conflict of Interest. (put me on the jury, and I'll place 10 images I uploaded as best, from 1 to 10) :P
So, if you're willing to be a part of the jury and didn't take part in the event (as in uploaded images) you can help out.
We'll be glad.

Does it mean that WLA wasn't well organised or what? All these structures should have been in place before the commencement of the contest.

Let's keep spreading the word for jury members.

Dear Colleagues, Happy new year 2015. How can we get a jury now. Most of us have uploaded photos and we are disqualified. Please any ideas on how to mobilise some jury to work fast. Enjoy a great year Emmanuel

I don't know in the program outline of the main wiki loves Africa contest, but we had no idea of presenting a list of best images from Ghana.
I was looking at a list for best images from the whole event. Didn't realize country based lists would be made.
But I think its not late for us to do something like that

Is very simple. You know you've participated in the competition. Why do you want to judge yourself?
Am sure is not must that members of the jury come from this list or user group.
Also this is one reason I said jury and other things set before competition.
Best,

How would you know if a selected Juror did not take part in the competition?
