Abstract
Wiki Loves Folk is a photo contest with a similar structure to Wiki Loves Monuments and Wiki Loves Earth. In this case the contest focuses on festivals and festivities, a topic underrepresented in Wikimedia Commons.
The contest was born in 2016 in Spain and organized by Wikimedia Spain and it is an exemple of collaboration, because it was organized for a specific festival in one region by Amical Wikimedia and Museu d'Etnologia de València.
We will explain how the contest works, its history, succes and mistakes or things to be done better and some statistics.
Outcomes
People can learn from the poster details of the contest and how to organize it in their countries or regions.
