Goal

edit

After organizing three events wiki loves in Tunisia on 2015 (wiki loves Monuments, wiki loves earth and wiki loves Afrcia ) it was found that we never reach our goal about quality photos because photographers do not know how to nominate their images and many pictures was nominated need a lot of work, and photos was uploaded only in this contests. In this context wikimedia Tunisia in collaboration with the Tunisian Association of photographers, will organize a training program about wikimedia commons and quality photos for 25 Tunisian photoraphes, this training will be organized in two Step:

  • 1st step: method of nomination quality photos and the use of images in wikimedia projects
    November 14, 2015   Done
    and December 19, 2015
  • 2nd step: Three days of practical training about Shooting pictures and technical treatment of photos, conduct by wikimedia commons user involved in the process of reviewing quality images.
