I think it should be note that Geograph pictures *were* badly organised. A
bot has made substantial improvements to their categorisation. At one time
we were had stopped moving images because of the poor categorisation. The
bot may allow us to import a few hundred thousand more. (my opinion only).
This is the work of one volunteer to bring c. 2 million images into better
use.

Would this be too late? They will probably not be around before the
start of April (assuming a month notice/moving/etc), and the reference
plan has WLM well along by then:

That said, it would certainly be an interesting project to get them
off the ground with!
