COH Challenge

Hi!

Congratulations for making such a good contribution to the UNESCO Challenge a couple of months ago.

I don't know if you have noticed, but there is a new competition co-arranged by UNESCO and Wikimedia Sverige – the COH Challenge. This time, the purpose is to get as many of the images uploaded as part of the Connected Open Heritage project (e.g. of world heritage sites, the images can be found here) as possible to be used in Wikipedia articles (however, at most five images – with caption – per article).

I hope you want to participate! :)

Best, Eric Luth (WMSE) (സംവാദം) 14:50, 30 ജൂൺ 2017 (UTC)
