Dear all,
As part of the Multimedia usability project [1], we're going to set up a
prototype environment, similar to the "sandboxes" used by the Wikipedia
Usability initiative [2].
Importing all of Commons into the prototype would be overkill. As a
consequence, we're looking for a small subset of content from Commons to
use as a sample.
We would like to have a reasonable range of:
* filetypes
* file sizes
* licenses
* metadata
We don't necessarily need a wide range of topics.
Would you have any suggestion of category (or set of categories) to use
for this purpose?
