Before the start of WPWP
- Early June, about three weeks before the launch date:
- Start engaging your community about your intentions and ideas.
- Identify what kind of events are ideal for your community.
- Mid-June, at least two weeks before the launch date:
- Share the How to Participate guide(s)
- Share the categories of images that you think are underutilized with your community.
- Late June, at least one week before the launch date:
- Inform the International Organizing Team of the categories of images your community is targeting as underutilized.
- ORGANIZERS: To track metrics such as the total number of articles improved, the list of articles improved, the total number of participants from your community, Ranking of users with the highest number of images used on articles and the total number of language Wikipedias improved, use the hashtag #WPWP on edit summary of all articles improved with photos.
Notes for organizers
- Showcase to your community the use of various tools listed here.
- Show participants how to add images to articles.
- Showcase how to add the hashtag #WPWP in the Edit summary.
- REMEMBER: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, #WPWP activities/event are strictly online.
During the WPWP challenge (July-August)
- Keep sharing the how-to-participate resource materials on all available social media platforms and other selected communication media for your community.
- Encourage users to share their achievements on social media (to encourage others/create a sense of competition).
- Remind participants to always use the hashtag #WPWP in their Edit summaries.
- Keep sharing statistics via social media to encourage more participation and competition.
- As an organizer, ensure you are available to provide further tips and advice as required.
- Reach out to the International Organizing Team at any point during the contest.
After the campaign
- Compile all statistics and generate your metrics form the hashtag.
- Communicate the results to your community and the International Organizing Team.

Using BAGLAMa or GLAMorgan for tracking Impact
We want to demonstrate the impact of this campaign in terms of bringing content to readers on the platforms.
Moreover, as you run local contests or campaigns as part of WPWP you may want to set targets or goals (like you would in a content drive).
Choosing BAGLAMa2 vs GLAMorgan
Use Baglama2 when you:
- Are starting before the end of a month
- Plan to be tracking the category for a long time
- Need to collect data over a window of time for historical data for future (pageviews are calculated based on where images are at the end of that month)
- Don't need a "rapid" update for the data
Use GLAMorgan when you:
- Want to start tracking immediately
- Do not need to collect historical data (page-views are calculated using where images are currently at -- likely inflating historical pageviews)
- Want to update more frequently than once a month
Tracking table
We encourage organizers to log categories that you are specifically sponsoring as part of a local contest or activity. The organizing team will update the table for all categories specifically identified by organizing communities for the campaign.
