[Wikimediauk-l] WikiLovesMonuments photos from Keith Hobbs

Hi all Keith Hobbs gave me his 27 photos that he was unable to upload at the Chester event. I now will not have time to sort or upload them, but I can send them to someone who can if they give me an email address or something. Chris Chris McKenna cmcke...@sucs.org www.sucs.org/~cmcken

Hi Stevie, It looks very good. For my money, "You can upload your photographs of public domain works, such as old buildings, statues, and art." (page 3) is a little ambiguous (the old applies to all three, but this is not 100% clear) though I cannot think of anything better. The only other thing

A link might be good but as Katie says that will probably not help beginners. If at all possible I'd like to squeeze this in, as in prtactice the issues briefly coverd there are of considerable imporetance to Commons, and admins spend a lot of time having to delete non-free contect that comes
