Wiki Loves Earth Edit

Wiki Loves Earth is a photography contest in which the participants upload images of nature monuments at Wikimedia Commons, so that they can be subsequently used in Wikipedia articles. The first edition took place in 2013 and was organized by Wikimedia Ukraine. The contest became international in 2014.

This is the first year that the Philippines is participating the competition. The local contest will run from May 1 – June 30, 2018, and is being organized by PhilWiki Community members. A writing contest will follow later this year.

The goal of Wiki Loves Earth Philippines contest is to gather as much quality images as possible featuring nature monuments of the Philippines. By having an extensive collection of photography, it would become possible to illustrate articles on the country's protected areas, reserves and parks, like Chocolate Hills, Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras and Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park
