[edit]Hello Selly Awuor
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/35/Wiki-Loves-Africa-logo.png/100px-Wiki-Loves-Africa-logo.png)
We are writing because you have participated in the Wiki Loves Africa (WLA) photo competition in the past. Results have been published and winning pictures may be seen here !

We are excited to share with you their study found our recruitment message was a success and may have resulted in as many as 2,000 additional contributed photos. We hope you agree this is great news for Africa and its representation across Wikimedia. You can read more about the study and the results in this blog post.
If you have any questions about the study, we encourage you to ask CAT Lab's research manager Juliakamin(cs).
