*Wiki Loves Monuments 2021*
Wiki Loves Monuments
<http://wikimedia.ie/programme/wiki-loves-monuments-2017/> 2021 in Ireland
is now open for uploads! Why not use our interactive map
<https://maps.wikilovesmonuments.org/> to find all those very special
buildings off the beaten track in your local area? There are lots of
structures waiting for their first image, a more recent image, or an image
that shows it off in the best possible light!
Again this year we are awarding a special prize for a photograph of the
most challenging, remote, or obscure structure uploaded to the competition.
We will also be awarding an extra prize for each province of the best photo
uploaded for a site that had no photo before.
*Upload from 1 to 30 September to win prizes!*

the Universal Code of Conduct (UCoC)

Provide comments about these guidelines by 17 October 2021. The committee
will be revising the guidelines based upon community input.
Everyone may share comments in a number of places. Facilitators welcome
comments in any language on the draft review talk page
