Hello, There are know three monuments projects on Commons. A Nederland one, a French one and the last Portuguese one. Objectives are to place médias on right categories and geotagged them.

See the template specialy created for: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Rijksmonumenten http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:M%C3%A9rim%C3%A9e http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:IGESPAR

These projects are also like a bridge from Wikipedias. I assume that could help newcomers.
