Wiki Loves Folklore 2020/Illustrate Wikipedia

HELP ILLUSTRATE WIKIPEDIA : EVERY YEAR, PHOTOS FROM THE CONTEST SHOULD ILLUSTRATE Wikipedia articles (*) !

Wiki Loves Folklore Illustrate Wikipedia articles is being organized from 1st August to 31st August 2020. It integrates the media files, including images and videos from the main Wiki Loves Folklore project to the relevant Wikipedia articles. This is one of the important phase to ensure the usage of the 18700 images we received in the photo contest of 2020 from 110+ countries to be used well in the related topics in encyclopedia in different languages.

Participation to WPWP Campaign edit

Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos (WPWP) is a campaign where Wikipedians across Wikipedia language projects and communities add photos to Wikipedia articles lacking images. This is to promote the use of digital media files collected from various Wikipedia photography contests, photowalks organized by the Wikimedia community, on Wikipedia article pages. Photos help to grasp the reader's attention better than a wall of text, illustrate content, and make the article more instructive and engaging for readers.

How to add new inspirations for more languages ? edit

The tool needed is the Glamify tool. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ijon/GLAMify

How it works : for a given category on Wikimedia Commons, and based on images for articles based in a source language wikipedia, suggests images for articles based on another language Wikipedia

Option 1: Go to https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ijon/GLAMify and follow the steps.

Option 2: Make a request just here

The process described above could be technically improved. A Phabricator task describes the needs : https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T211441
