Wishing everyone a prosperous Onam Hello everyone,
As part of the Wiki Loves Onam campaign yesterday, on Thiruvonam day, we crossed the milestone of uploading over *1000 <https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_from_Wiki_Loves_Onam_2024>* images to Wikimedia Commons. You too can contribute to this initiative by adding free images and information related to Onam by adding structured data to the uploaded images. If you have taken any photos related to Onam and its celebrations, you can also contribute them to Wikimedia Commons as part of this campaign. To participate in this project and upload images visit - https://w.wiki/B34P Best regards, Jinoy On Sun, 1 Sept 2024 at 00:15, Jinoy Tom Jacob <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello everyone ๐ > > Apologies for cross-posting this but I hope this email finds you well.
