In English (lire en français plus bas)
Thank you for your contribution to Wiki Loves Africa 2017
The project is a celebration of the visual diversity of Africa on Wikipedia and its sister projects. There are several fun ways you can help us to make the impact of Wiki Loves Africa stronger:
- Add more categories to your images so that people will find them to use them in articles ... you can see how to do this here: Quick Guide to Categories on Commons
- Add your image to a relevant Wikipedia article, i.e. if your image shows a tailor sewing, then add the image to an article on Sewing or Tailors - this allows readers to see different global perspectives of a universal subject. You can see how to do this here: How to insert images into Wikipedia using WikiText
- Improve the images description to make them easier to understand and reuse.
- If there is no article that reflects the subject of your images, then start an article about that subject. If you are a new editor, you can see how to do that here: Creating your first article
- Add more images - you can add more images or media that reflect interesting and encyclopedic subjects in your immediate community.
- Become involved in (or start) your local Wikimedia community groups - it is a lot of fun, and is important! Find the existing groups here: Wikimedia groups across Africa
We look forward to seeing your contributions!!
Warmest,
Anthere for the Wiki Loves Africa Team
