Hi everyone, hope you all had good weekends! Just a reminder that Wiki Loves Folklore is now into its last couple of weeks...
We have three competitions running this year - Scotland <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Scotland>, Wales <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Wales>, and England <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_England>. The Irish competition, supported by Wikimedia Community Ireland, can be found here. <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Ireland> This competition has a wide brief, and takes in a huge range of living heritage - everything from sword dancing to cheese making, and curry to clothing. Dig through your old photos or get out there and capture new ones! - Scottish competition <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Scotland> - Welsh competition <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Wales> - English competition <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_England> - Irish competition <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Folklore_2026_in_Ireland> - supported by Wikimedia Community Ireland If you’re interested in finding out more about how living heritage is reflected on the Wikimedia projects, we highly recommend taking a look at the Wiki Loves Living Heritage project on Metawiki <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Living_Heritage>, and in particular the guidelines on Ethical Sharing <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Living_Heritage/Ethical_sharing>.
