Project Plan[edit]
Activities[edit]
Tell us how you'll carry out your project. Be sure to answer the following questions:
1. What content will the contest focus on, and why is it important to your community?
- Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos seront axé sur l'utilisation de fichiers multimédias gratuits sur les articles Wikipédia en rapport avec le Burundi. Des milliers d'images ont été prissées et apportées à Wikimedia Commons via divers programmes de plaidoyer, des promenades photos et des concours, y compris des concours de photographie internationaux tels que Wiki Loves Monuments, Wiki Loves Africa, Wiki Loves Earth, etc. Pourtant, relativement peu de ces photos ont été utilisées sur des articles de Wikipédia. Wikimedia Commons héberge plus de 73 millions de fichiers, mais seule une infime partie de celles-ci a été utilisée sur les pages d'articles de Wikipédia. Sur Wikipedia en Kirundi, les articles liés au Projet Burundi contiennent moins d'images d'illustration et ce concours permettra de résoudre ce problème.
2. How have you let relevant Wikimedia communities know about this proposal? You are required to provide links to on-wiki pages to inform these communities about your proposed work. Examples of places where this can be done include community discussion pages, affiliate discussion pages, or relevant project talk pages.
You may also provide information about external social media channels you may be using.
- Nous utiliserons notre liste de diffusion interne et notre groupe Whatsapp,Facebook,Instagram,Twitter
3. How will you let participants know about the contest? In what ways will you be communicating with them?
For example, these can include on-wiki spaces, social media channels, mailing lists, messaging apps, or physical/online gatherings.
- Nous utiliserons des groupe Whatsapp,des comptes Facebook,Instagram,Twitter,les radios et les journaux
4. How will you judge the contest and award prizes?
Note: Grantees, judges, and other contest leaders are ineligible to receive prizes. Grantees who are serving as judges may not receive gifts through grant funding.
- Nous allons mettre en place un comité indépendant de juges pour examiner les contributions et attribuer des prix en fonction du classement des utilisateurs les plus actif sur la réutilisation des images sur les articles appropries sur Wikipédia.
5. For photo contests, what is the strategy to get images used on projects?
- ce concours sera axé sur l'utilisation de fichiers multimédias déjà disponible sur wikimedia commons pour illustrer les articles de wikipedia.
