Olá Túllio F! Notei que você enviou algumas imagens de Goiás para o Wiki Loves Monuments, e por isso agradeço bastante! Não sei se viu, mas em nossas redes sociais temos publicado diariamente sobre monumentos que ainda não foram ilustrados em diferentes estados e localidades. Em Goiás, por exemplo, não temos imagens da Academia Goiana de Letras. Será que você pode nos ajudar a ilustrá-la? Outros monumentos, já ilustrados ou não, você encontra na lista de monumentos de Goiás. Obrigado e boas contribuições! EPorto (WMB) (talk) 20:07, 16 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Olá! O maior concurso fotográfico do mundo está de volta! Que tal participar mais uma vez (ou pela primeira vez!) do Wiki Loves Monuments? A etapa nacional da competição, que este ano está com novidades na faixa de premiação, ocorrerá de 01 a 30 de setembro.
Este ano, teremos novamente três categorias de premiação e um aumento na faixa de prêmios:
Melhores Imagens, com prêmios de até R$2.500
Maiores Contribuidores(as), com prêmios de R$200
Melhor Imagem do Estado do Espírito Santo, com prêmio de R$2.500
Ficou animado(a)? Acesse aqui os mais de 15 mil monumentos listados para a competição deste ano! Fotografe-os e publique suas imagens no Wikimedia Commons durante o mês de setembro.
Ano passado o Brasil ficou em primeiro lugar na etapa internacional do Wiki Loves Monuments com a foto do Real Gabinete Português de Leitura, no Rio de Janeiro, tirada pelo fotógrafo lituano Donatas Dabravolskas. É a nossa chance de repetir este feito!

This is a deletion request for the community to discuss whether the nominated contents should be kept or deleted. Please voice your opinion in the linked request above. Thank you very much!
If you created these pages, please note that the fact that they have been proposed for deletion does not necessarily mean that we do not value your kind contribution. It simply means that one person believes that there is some specific problem with them, such as a copyright issue. Please see Commons:But it's my own work! for a guide on how to address these issues.
Please remember to respond to and – if appropriate – contradict the arguments supporting deletion. Arguments which focus on the nominator will not affect the result of the nomination. Thank you!

We are delighted to inform you that your efforts have placed you among the top 100 uploaders during this project. As a token of our appreciation, we would like to send you a special postcard.
To ensure you receive your special postcard postcard, kindly complete this form before August 15, 2024.
Looking ahead, we hope to see you again in February 2025 for the next exciting event.
Thank you once again for your dedication and Wikilove.
Thanks for uploading File:Fazenda Barranco Vermelho - Cáceres 58.jpg. I notice that the file page either doesn't contain enough information about the license or it contains contradictory information about the license, so the copyright status is unclear.
If you did not create the file yourself or if it is a derivative of another work that is possibly subject to copyright protection, then you must specify where you found it (e.g. usually a link to the web page where you got it), you must provide proof that it has a license that is acceptable for Commons (e.g. usually a link to the terms of use for content from that page), and you must add an appropriate license tag. If you did not create the file yourself and the specific source and license information is not available on the web, you must obtain permission through the VRT system and follow the procedure described there.
Note that any unsourced or improperly licensed files will be deleted one week after they have been marked as lacking proper information, as described in criteria for deletion. If you have uploaded other files, please confirm that you have provided the proper information for those files, too. If you have any questions about licenses please ask at Commons:Village pump/Copyright or see our help pages. Thank you.

Hello Túllio F,
The world’s traditions are disappearing faster than we can document them, but you can help change that.
On behalf of the Wiki Loves Folklore International Team, we are reaching out to invite you to contribute to the 2026 edition of our global campaign.
Share Your Cultural Heritage with the World
Wiki Loves Folklore is an international media contest dedicated to documenting the "intangible" beauty of our cultures. Whether it’s the vibrant colours of a folk festival, the rhythm of a traditional dance, the secrets of a family recipe, or the legends of your hometown, your media helps preserve these legacies for generations to come.
How You Can Contribute
Participating is simple, and every upload contributes to the world's largest free knowledge repository:
Capture: Take photos, record videos, or capture audio of folk activities, music, mythology, or traditional wear.
Upload: Share your files on Wikimedia Commons between 1 February 2026 and 31 March 2026.
Win: Beyond the satisfaction of preservation, there are international prizes for the most impactful contributions.
Estou enviando esta mensagem para te convidar para participar da edição de 2026 do Wiki Loves Cultura Popular Brasil! Esperamos que você possa compartilhar novamente suas fotografias da cultura popular brasileira com o mundo!
Como você pode participar?

Envie suas fotografias e você estará participando automaticamente do concurso!

I also want to highlight what an incredible turnout we had. In the second round, we saw a massive jump in both the number of users voting and the total votes cast. We had exactly 13,979 votes cast by 3,509 users! To put that in perspective, last year we had 7,403 votes from 2,837 users. It is amazing to see that level of growth and community engagement.
Thank you to everyone who voted, helped organize, and generally made the contest such a huge success this year!
