Set up a Dashboard

Steps for Campaign Organizers
The Wiki Loves Pride campaign is coordinated on Meta to track actions across different language Wikipedias and other Wikimedia projects.
If you want to organize the campaign on your own language's Wikipedia or another Wikimedia project you participate in, please follow these steps:
Register your campaign edition
Let us know at Event:Wiki Loves Pride/2026 that you're organizing a local edition of the campaign. First, verify that no one is already running the campaign in your idiomatic Wikipedia or chosen project. Example: Wiki Loves Pride in Spanish.
Promote your language edition
Use these graphic designs to create posters. When promoting the activity, use the hashtag #WikiLovesPride and tag WMLGBT+. Our social media channels are:
- X (Twitter):
@WikiLGBT - Mastodon:
@wmlgbt@tech.lgbt - Bluesky:
@wmlgbt.org - Instagram:

If you are having an in-person activity, please consider printing some Wiki Loves Pride stickers for participants!
Announce the contest on Wikimedia Commons
On your local Wikipedia’s page for Wiki Loves Pride, let users know that this contest on Wikimedia Commons is open during Wiki Loves Pride 2026 campaign.
Announce campaign-related activities
Whether online or in-person, any activities held as part of the campaign (by you or others) should be listed on the WLP event page. The section is called "Activities".
Track campaign metrics
Keep track of: participants, number of new editors, number of active editors, number of Wikipedia articles created or improved, Wikidata items created or improved, and, files uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. We recommend using the Dashboard to track these metrics.
Create and connect your language's Dashboard

If your activity is connected to the main campaign Dashboard, you don't need to report the metrics separately. It is mandatory for organizers to clean their dashboard, and track articles related to Wiki Loves Pride campaign only.
Report your results
At the end of the campaign (during the first week of July), report your edition’s metrics (for example, if you organized the campaign in Portuguese) by sending the metrics to Wikimedia LGBT+ via: wikilovespridewmlgbtorg
