Project Goal

1. Add more images about the playful side of the Tunisian society and improve articles by integrating these images in their related themes or creating articles for non existing articles.

3. Engage existing editors to contribute to Commons and other sister projects.
4. Create awareness about the Wikimedia movement and its activities.

Project Plan

Activities

Tell us how you'll carry out your project. Be sure to answer the following questions:
1. What content will the contest focus on, and why is it important to your community?

The contest will focus on visuals and audio visuals about the theme Play in Tunisia. Tunisian Wikimedians will be invited to submit visual representations of joyful and serious games, sport, and recreation in the form of board or mental games, physical fun or contests, playful interactions, theatrical and musical performances, etc.

Tunisian people like to play and this contest will show to the world that part of our society ː)

2. How will you let people know about the contest? We will use our social media channels, the mailing list for the community and other tech and volunteer communities to reach out to enthusiasts.

3. How will you judge the contest and award prizes?

A jury of 3 professional and passionate photographers will set criteria and will select 3 best images based on these criteria.

4. For photo contests, what is the strategy to get images used on projects?

We will have edit-a-thons to help integrate some of these uploaded images into existing articles on Wikipedia. We may also create new articles based on these images at the edit-a-thons.

5. Is there anything else you want to tell us about this project? Previous editions of WLA Tunisia were a great experience and we are ready for the new challenge.
