It seems that a picture contest "Wikis Take Manhattan" has been approved by the Wikimedia Foundation and happened recently.
However, looking at the related uploaded pictures on Commons (see http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_from_Wikis_Take_Manhattan_...), i think there's many problems :
- All the pictures have no source and date
- Most of the pictures have no description
- Many needs "Personnality right warning"
- Many seems to be out of Commons scope ( see
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Image:WSTM_Three...)
- Many are duplicated pictures
In a general case, most of those pictures seem not to meet Commons criteria. Please have a look at all these pictures and try to fix the problems.
