Dear organizers of WPWP Campaign,
It's three weeks to the
WPWP Campaign and the International Organizing Team is happy to provide the necessary supports for you to run a successful campaign.
Please take a look at the
organizer's guide as this guide would be useful for you in planning your local campaign. If you wish to provide a local prize, we encourage you to do so.
You may need a
rapid grant to fund the local prizes and edit-a-thon. We strongly advise that you apply before 15th June 2020, as after that date WMF may not receive and process grant applications.
Campaign metrics
We want to ensure that tracking of metrics is easy and flexible for all the participating communities. We will be using a double hashtag to track metrics for the WPWP Campaign in July; the general hashtag (#WPWP) and your community-specific hashtag (eg. #WPWPNG for Nigeria, #WPWPBR for Brazil). Please, remind the participants from your community to add the hashtag #WPWP and your community-specific hashtag to edits summaries of articles improved with photos.
The hashtag tool would track the following metrics:
1. Total number of articles improved with photos
2. The list of articles improved with photos
3. The total number of participants from your community
4. Ranking of users in descending order of contributions
5. The total number of language Wikipedia improved
Please email your community-specific hashtag to me directly or simply reply to this email with it for configuration.
Kindly note that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, #WPWP Campaign activities/events are strictly online.
Please let us know if you require further information.
With best regards,
Isaac Olatunde
Project Manager and Co-Coordinator
