What is the purpose of the campaign? How will you measure the success of the campaign? edit

Description - Call for participation to Wiki Loves Africa 2023.

The banner is to promote the Wiki Loves Africa photo campaign. It is a call for participation. It is pretty much unchanged compared to previous years. The contest is open for 2 months (by popular support). We run the banner only in Africa (though the contest is open everywhere). Every year, 90% or so of our participants are new (and some are retained there after !), so running the banner for IP addresses is very important as it serves as recruitment system for new participants. The contest runs over all African countries. In some countries (around 25), local teams will organize activities. They are very much in ask for the banners (both because it helps promote the contest in countries where wikipedia is not very well known) and because it makes them feel we take them seriously (and we do of course...). We changed the timeline just a tiny bit : 1 March 2023 → 30th April 2023

Discussion edit

  • @DerHexer: - just letting you know that all the visual elements you need should be in the right section above. Please let me know if you need more, in a different format, or a longer rolling banner (wasn't sure of the dimensions). Thank you!! Islahaddow (talk) 15:25, 15 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
