Hello everyone,
I just wanted to give you all a quick update on the current status of Wiki Loves Monuments 2014.
Currently South Africa is the 11th most active country with over 1,200 uploads by 41 participants. We are behind the UK (10th) which has 2,265 uploads by 227 participants. Lets see if we can over take them!
Internationally over 81,000 photographs have been uploaded by 2907 participants with Poland being the most active country with over 20,000 photographs uploaded so far.
We need to expand the number and range of participants this year so please tell all your friends and who ever you feel might be interested about Wiki Loves Monuments.
Just a quick reminder that we will be having three WLM events in the Western Cape between 20th and the 27th September.
*Events* V&A Waterfront Scavenger Hunt and Upload Marathon Date: Saturday, 20 September 2014 Time: 10:00am - 2:00pm Location: Clock Tower Vida e Caffé, V&A Waterfront, Cape Town
24 September 2014: Wikitakes Simon's Town Date: Wednesday (Heritage Day), 24 September 2014 Time: 10:00am - 3:00pm Location: Simons Town Train Station, Cape Town
Franschhoek Date: Saturday, 27 September 2014 Time: 10:00am - 2:00pm Location: Old Library, Franschhoek
These events will involve a monument scavenger hunt followed by an upload marathon.
Hope to see you there.
Cheers,
Douglas.
