The international contest framework was from 1st May — 31st July.
Here are the general results during these three months:
3,800+ participants uploaded their photos;
79,000+ images were uploaded;
4,000+ images already are used in the Wikipedia;
54 countries organized a contest;
17 countries have already submitted their local winning images.
But if you are from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, or Togo — you still have some additional time to upload your images during the first half of August!
Follow each country’s timeline here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/…/Participating_countries.
Stay tuned to see all the local submissions!
- This year, we also continue to raise awareness about environmental problems, so we launched our special nomination “Human Rights and Environment” for the 4th time.
- The wide and beautiful natural heritage can be showcased, and Wikipedia articles can be illustrated not only with images but also with videos. In this special “Video” nomination, we recognize videos depicting natural monuments worldwide. Upload your beautiful videos and check the criteria here.
