Wiki Loves Earth is an international photo contest devoted to nature
heritage. WLE aims at raising public awareness about protected areas and
creating the biggest database of free photos of them. After 7 years of
local competitions all around the world, WLE resulted in 585k free photos
of nature monuments, with around 130k being used in the wikiprojects.
And this year we continue! The 8th edition of Wiki Loves Earth is open for
submissions. For now, we have 24 participating countries, and the list is
extending. The contest runs throughout *May 1 – July 31*, with different
dates for each country.
*Do you want to know more about WLE, its goals, history and hear
interesting stories?*
Today we will speak about the contest during Wikipedia Weekly episode!
