Participate in Wiki Loves Monuments, the largest photography competition in the world, and help Wikipedia document monuments and heritage buildings. The only thing you have to do for that is to upload a freely-licensed image of a monument in one of the participating countries to Wikimedia Commons.

Wiki Loves Monuments is running in more than 40 countries around the world from the 1st – 30th of September 2018 (unless mentioned otherwise).
