To organize Wiki Loves Folklore in your country or a more localized setting, adhere to the following procedural guidelines:
- Define Photo Recommendations: Craft or refine explicit guidelines for photographers on your project page. Clearly outline the aspects they should emphasize in their submissions, shaping a cohesive narrative of folklore through visual storytelling.
- Build a Robust Organization Team: Assemble a competent organization team and designate a primary contact person, identifying them on a list of assisting users. This ensures effective communication and coordination throughout the planning and execution phases.
- Establish a Local Landing Page: Create a dedicated landing page on Commons for your specific event (
Commons:Wiki Loves Folklore 2024/..). (example of local page) Translate essential templates and pages using the guidelines provided at Commons:Wiki Loves Folklore 2024/Translations. The international team will generate a category for your country, streamlining the organization process. - Prepare for Onsite Events: For events conducted onsite, set up a dashboard in advance to streamline the management of activities during the event, facilitating smooth execution and data collection.
- Customize Upload Wizard for Geographic Specifics: Within the upload wizard, prompt participants to specify the country where the photo was taken. If needed, the international team can furnish a specialized upload link for your country, complete with default selections aligned with your geographic location. This ensures participants don't have to manually adjust settings, simplifying the submission process.
