Social media guidelines

It is exciting to support WikiLovesAfrica’s 2021 and show people what is happening with the competition in your country! There is an international communications team for the duration of the competition, but we would love your support wherever possible! Here are some ways you can do just that:

SHARE OUR POSTS

Keep an eye on our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram feeds and share our posts. The more organic reach we get the more we will be rewarded with so every share counts.

COMMENT ON OUR POSTS

Comment and tag on the comments of a post. Any words of encouragement or tagging a friend or organization on the comments feed will also help Wiki Loves Africa to be seen by more people, more often.

MAKE YOUR OWN POSTS

  1. Use the contest colour pallette above
  2. Include the hashtag #wikilovesafrica on all your posts on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
  3. The shortlink to the info page and entry is bit.ly/EnterWLA2021 photographs you post on Social Media
  4. Make sure that the photos you use are big enough, and do not distort or pixelate
  5. When writing a post about a local event, please include the location or country in your post (this can be done straight away or as a hashtag) – this will cause less confusion when people repost or share your post with their individual accounts
  6. There are standard headers for Facebook and Twitter as well as a standard Instagram post that you are welcome to use. Please find them in the Social Media templates section below (to come)
  7. Be sure to include these bits of info – not necessarily all at once but over a few posts.

Branding and communications help for Organisers

Design and photographic manipulation tools

If you wish to create your own branding, please consider using the following design tools. Many of the application listed below require specialist knowledge of design and photographic principles. Inkscape is free and open source. However there are many other platforms that can help you if you are new to communications and design, especially these non-open source platforms.

They are not open source, but many have a free 'plan' that allows limited functionality:

Please note: the following is a list of (mostly) open source options. While many of these products are exceptional we do not recommend or endorse one over another. Always be careful when downloading software.
