Sarah,
Thanks for this. I've only got 2 questions (both for Wikimedians) 1) Do we have a systematic upload campaigned planned (no rush it doesn't look like it's going away soon)? and 2) Is there a proper category at Commons for these images? I tried [[Category:Getty Open Content Imageshttps://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Getty_Open_Content_Images&action=edit&redlink=1]] without any luck
I uploaded a trial image just to see what will happen, and if anybody has any objections to the substance or format. It may serve as a modest example of how Getty and Wikimedia can complement each other. at Commons see: File:Low grade Crossing at Whitford, Getty 07147701.jpg
On Wikipedia see: William H. Rau and Whitford (SEPTA station)
Thanks again, Pete User:Smallbones
