Why participate?
Participate in Wiki Loves Monuments, the largest photography competition in the world, and help Wikipedia document monuments and heritage buildings.
Participating is fun! By photographing and sharing images of heritage nearby you, you can explore more about CountryXX heritage and learn about it. It's a nice challenge to improve your photography skills, and you can of course win some nice prizes. <XX explain here what the national prizes are. Do you offer vouchers for the winner? Or just eternal glory?> The national jury will select up to 10 images that will represent CountryXX in the international finale. These images will compete for the international awards. More information about the international competition is available on www.wikilovesmonuments.org .
You can also upload images that you may have taken already during one of your travels to the national competition of that country. Check if your travel destination participates in Wiki Loves Monuments this year.
Competition rules
We try to keep the competition clean and simple to participate. There are only a few rules for photos to participate in the contest in CountryXX. Let's quickly go through them. Every submission should be:
- Self taken and self uploaded;
- Uploaded during September 2019;
- During the upload process, you give permission with a CC BY-SA license to re-use the image;
- Contain a listed monument, which you have identified using the monument identifier (see elsewhere on this page);
Next to that, there are a few practical rules:
- You should have an activated e-mail address on Wikimedia Commons;
- If the photo gets deleted for any reason, it is automatically disqualified from the competition;
- You are responsible for following the law while taking and uploading the photo.
In September, you may upload as many pictures (old or new) as you want of monuments that you have visited. At the end of the month, the national jury will evaluate the photographs and select the best 10 pictures of the monuments in <country XX> to submit to represent in the international finale. The international jury will then announce the international winners in December.

More about CountryX's monuments
<XX explain here a bit more about monuments in your country. What definition are you using? Where can people find the list?
The Jury
Our jury will process the images through two or three rounds during October. At the end of this process, the jury determines the top-10. If there are any doubts about the implementation of the rules, the jury decides. <XX who's in the Jury? What are their qualifications?>
Judging criteria
The jury will determine the winners of the international contest taking into the consideration the following criteria (in no particular order):
- Technical quality (sharpness, use of light, perspective etc.);
- Originality;
- Usefulness of the image for Wikipedia.
Images that reach a top ranking of the international finale, will typically at least fulfill the technical criteria of the ‘Featured Image’ process at Wikimedia Commons. But feel free to submit many images, and let the jury be concerned if they are good enough.
