Hello all,
As you all may already know, Wiki Loves Monuments is one of the largest campaigns and outreach efforts organized in the Wikimedia movement. There are a lot of people who are involved in this across the movement, including but not limited to, national/regional organizers, affiliates, external partners, WMF and coordinating all these stakeholders we have the international team.
The international team works on the broader framework for WLM, among a range of other tasks. As the competition has started this year, we would like to send out this call for volunteers for anyone interested to join the international team. You can learn along as the competition is going on. Here are the roles available on the team:
- Organizer outreach - Project management - Communication - Banner/template support - Technical Infrastructure - Survey and analysis - Grant & report writing - Organizing the “rest of the world” competition - Award coordination - Wikidata migration
A detailed overview of each of these roles is available at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments/Documentatio.... Some roles don't require you to volunteer for the whole year, for example, award coordination is mainly between January and March. If you are interested, you can still support other tasks during the rest of the year. On average, you may spend 3-5 hours a week.
Let me know if you are interested, and please spread the message in your circles.
Best, Krishna Chaitanya *for WLM International Team*
