Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos

Kurasa za Wikipedia Zinazohitaji Picha (Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos- WPWP) ni mashindano ya kila mwaka ambapo Wanawikipedia katika miradi ya lugha zote wanaongeza picha kwenye Wikipedia makala zinazokosa picha. Hii inalenga kutumia picha nyingi zilizokusanywa tayari kupitia mashindano mbalimbali za kupiga picha kwenye WP zinazopatikana kwenye kurasa za Commons lakini hadi sasa hazitumiwi kwenye makala za WP. Picha si mapambo tu ya matini iliyoandikwa bali husaidia kuelewa habari za makala vizuri zaidi.

Maelfu ya picha zimeshaandaliwa na kutolewa kwenye Wikimedia Commons kupitia miradi mbalimbali pamoja na mashindano ya kupiga picha ya kimataifa kama vile Wiki Loves Monuments, Wiki Loves Africa, Wiki Loves Earth, Wiki Loves Folklore, nk. Lakini chache za picha hizi zimetumika kwenye makala za Wikipedia. Leo hii akiba ya Wikimedia Commons inatunza mamilioni ya picha lakini sehemu ndogo tu zimetumika kwenye kurasa za makala za Wikipedia. Mradi huu unataka kupunguza pengo hili kubwa.

How to participate

Before participating, it is important to read all rules below in their entirety. Failure to do so may result in disqualification.

  1. Ujiandikishe katika wikipedia au fungua akaunti mpya (kama huna). Unaweza kuhudhuria kutoka lugha yoyote ya Wikipedia.

Orodha ya lugha zote za Wikipedia iapatikana hapa.

  1. Tafuta nakala isiyokuwa na picha Bofya hapa kutafuta kichwa cha Nakala. Pia unaweza kutafuta kwa You can also kutumia njia nasibu
  2. Kutafuta faili ya picha inayofaa bofya hapa, alafu bofya hapa kutafuta picha kwa kichwa sahihi. Kama untaka kutafuta picha katika jamii maalum, kwa mfano Wiki Loves Africa category.
  3. Kwenye ukurasa wa nakala, bonyeza Hariri na ingiza picha iliyochaguliwa katika hatua ya 3, pamoja na maelezo mafupi katika lugha ya WP. Angalia msimamo wa kuonyesha katika "hakiki" na ufanye mabadiliko yoyote muhimu. Kisha bonyeza "Chapisha mabadiliko".
  4. Unaweza kuhudhuria pia kwa kutunga makala mpya kwa picha nzuri.
  5. Please be mindful of the image syntax! If you are going to add images to the infoboxes in articles, the syntax is a lot easier — just the filename, so rather than [[File:Obamas at church on Inauguration Day 2013.jpg|thumb|The Obamas worship at [[African Methodist Episcopal Church]] in Washington, D.C., January 2013]] simply Obamas at church on Inauguration Day 2013.jpg.

Here, the caption is The Obamas worship at African Methodist Episcopal Church.

If you are going to add images to the infoboxes in articles, add them to the correct position as shown below.

| image = Obamas at church on Inauguration Day 2013.jpg

| caption = The Obamas worship at African Methodist Episcopal Church
