A bit slow to react I am but...

1. I am a bit hesitant as to why you did not choose to only push for one unique hashtag #WPWP.
Dividing this into several hashtag might be cool community wise, but it will make tracking more complicated (you will have to track many hashtags rather than one
It definitly will make communication more complicated. As in... if someone post a tweet indicating the campaign requires to put #WPWPBR.... then if I retweet this message... this will be confusing if I am speaking to another community entirely (as in #WPWPFR)

2. It looks like your tags are country-specific. I suppose for community building. So what happens to those who want to participate without being "taggued" in relation with a specifi country ? Or who do not want to display publicly the country they live in ?

Not saying it is wrong, but this will make things a bit more complicated....


Also, tool-wise, I HIGHLY recommand looking at Glamify.
Here is what I did in 2017 with it : https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2017/Call_to_action
Problem is that...

1) queries are not automatically updated as may listeria lists be. I have tried desperately to bring Asaf to fix that during 2 years but did not succeed. So recommandations... must be renewed regularly, which is a pain, but... still cool

2) the output is localized. It can worked automatically on meta, but needs fixing to operate on Commons (which is additional work...). The good news is that the WPWP campaign in on meta !!!

So I can create a similar and updated page on meta for suggestions based on WLA images and hopefully it could inspire others to do for other images collections ?
The one thing I can not do is push this for all languages, this is really too much work for a human. I could do it a few select languages though.

Hello Isaac Olatunde,

We can use the #WPWPTR tag. Also should we create a page for the WPWP in the local Wikipedia?

Best regards,

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
WPWP Campaign
