Hi Andrew,

On the subject of chapter-led projects that import
large amounts of
content into commons:
The Wikipedia Loves Art ran through the month of February 2009 (more
details are at [1][2][3]) and has generated about 5,000 images. At
some stage the plan is to upload these to Commons and thence link to
Wikipedia articles.
Nice project, great score!
I've included Pharos in this email who was one of the main organisers.
Is there anything that needs to be considered or put in place before
the mass uploading starts?
What information is going to be included in the images?
How are you
going to add categories?
You might want to have a look at

Doing a couple of test uploads to get some feedback is very useful.
