I will upload all pictures to a special group called "Wiki Loves Africa 2024 Nigeria." This will help Wikimedia Commons keep track of the number of pictures uploaded. To monitor participation, I will use a tool called the Outreach Dashboard.

By using this information, I can enhance my outreach efforts and ensure the project's continued growth and impact.
