*Wiki Loves Earth*
The photo competition, Wiki Loves Earth http://wikimedia.ie/programme/wiki-loves-earth-2020/, is coming to Ireland for the first time this July! All eligible sites are listed on Commons: National Parks, Nature Reserves, and Geoparks https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2020_in_Ireland/List_of_National_Parks,_Nature_Reserves_and_Geoparks, and Special Areas of Conservation https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2020_in_Ireland/List_of_Special_Areas_of_Conservation with links to upload your images ready and waiting.
Upload your images from 1 to 30 July, the photos just need to be new to Wikimedia Commons - you might already have a number of winning images waiting to be uploaded from a hard drive or memory stick! There are so many protected areas in Ireland that are waiting for their first picture on Commons - can you help us show off Ireland's natural beauty to the whole world?
*Wikipedia Editing on Twitch*
Our project coordinator, Rebecca, has continued her live streaming editing tutorials through Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/smirkybec. The sessions take place at *7pm Tuesdays and Thursday*s. Some of the tutorials are also uploaded to YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCME0KIqk13bdfdg_fqqYISA/ and Facebook https://www.facebook.com/WikimediaIreland/ so you can watch them later.
If you have started or re-started editing Wikipedia during the lock down, and would like some pens, stickers, or badges for your efforts, send us a link to your user profile with an address and we can send you some swag as a thank you! Email us at wikimediaireland[at]gmail.com
*If you have any suggestions for a topic to be covered by these tutorials - please get in touch!*
