Dear Wikimedians,
1-31 July, Wikimedia Sverige and UNESCO co-arranges the second competition
as part of the Connected Open Heritage
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Connected_Open_Heritage> project. The
competition, called the COH Challenge
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Connected_Open_Heritage_Challenge>, will
focus on adding great, new images to articles about cultural heritage
uploaded as part of the project.
As part of the COH project, more than 12,000 images have been uploaded on
Commons
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Connected_Open_Heritage_Challenge/List>.
The goal is thus to make sure that these images are used on Wikipedia. To
ensure a qualitative approach, only 5 images per article (with image
captions) will be awarded points. Twice the points are awarded if the
article with the added image is also improved.
Some of you may recall the previous competition, the UNESCO Challenge,
where the focus was on improving articles! The results were great. 96 users
registered, and more than 8 million bytes of data were created. We hope
that many of you wish to take part in this competition as well. Just as
last time, nice prizes are awarded to the winners.
Best,
*Eric Luth*
