For several years, a reflection has been initiated within Wikimedia France around the information on the communes of France freely accessible via Wikimedia projects.
To compensate for the lack of illustrations, Wikimedia France had launched in 2015 the summer photographic campaign "Summer of Wikipedia regions". More than 35,000 photos were uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons media library during the two previous campaigns in 2015 and 2016.
In gestation and development during this year, the My Commune Wikipedia tool will take over the Summer of Regions in September 2017.
Thanks to this tool, it will now be possible for anyone to get an overview of the information about his or her commune: the progress of the Wikipedia article, the number of illustrations in the article or the number of visitors per day.
