Hi everyone, hope you all had good weekends!

Just a reminder that Wiki Loves Folklore is now into its last couple of weeks...

We have three competitions running this year - Scotland https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Scotland, Wales https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Wales, and England https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_England. The Irish competition, supported by Wikimedia Community Ireland, can be found here. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Ireland

This competition has a wide brief, and takes in a huge range of living heritage - everything from sword dancing to cheese making, and curry to clothing. Dig through your old photos or get out there and capture new ones!

If you’re interested in finding out more about how living heritage is reflected on the Wikimedia projects, we highly recommend taking a look at the Wiki Loves Living Heritage project on Metawiki https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Living_Heritage, and in particular the guidelines on Ethical Sharing https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Living_Heritage/Ethical_sharing.

Happy folklore-ing....
