- Reach out to local Wikimedia wikis and actively promote "Commons
only" upload policies. Switching to Commons only has massive benefits for both the local wiki (hugely reduced maintenance burden) and us (new contributions).
A lot of people on de.wp are against Commons because of logos and old pictures without authors. Since we want to keep them, I don't see a way to achieve keeping them and having Commons only.
My additional wish would be a way to contact one time contributers. There are several ways to achieve this: * Creating a field "home wiki" on the resistration form. * Making email adresses mandatory & auto activate email notification
Another one would be a way to notify people of mass deletion requests. There are people who often place general DRs for whole categories and nobody is notified. Maybe we could improve CommonsTicker?
