Hi,
Matthew Roth from WMF wrote to me yesterday and asked if I would like to write about WLPA on the Wikimedia Blog. I am thrilled about that of course :).
He asked about both
when I was planning the post(s) and
how many
posts I would like to see. I have not given him a formal answer yet, but I am thinking that I will ask for three posts:
- One next week giving an overview of the contest and the teams.
- One post at the end of May wrapping it up (crunching some numbers about number of pics, participants, how much of the lists are now covered etc.)
- One blog post in July about the winners of the contest.
What do you think about that? Are there any other things that we should write about regarding the contest? I am thinking that I will put up a draft on the portal at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Public_Art_2013/Media/Blog posts so that you all can proofread and help to improve it.
Also, I have added two suggestions for presentations at Wikimania that would focus on the contest. Please have a look and see if you would like to attend them in any capacity :)
