I sent you emails 2/1, 2/23 and 3/14 trying to arrange a conversation about this after you brought this up on this email list. I ended up having that conversation with the admins of the Commons Facebook page but hoped to have one discussion including you. Please email me to let me know you saw this. Thanks so much,Jeff ElderDigital communications managerWikimedia Foundation704-650-4130 @jeffelder@wikipediaThe Wikimedia blog

Can it be twittered at https://twitter.com/wikicommons as well?
The @wikicommosn account is mainly re-tweeing wikipedia stuff instead of posting about commons related stuff.
It is soo hard to get stuff posted there, And this is not my first attempt to get stuff announced there. It seems impossible.

Ok. In that case I'd say that some image is better than none, so IMO I'd say go for it.

Hi,
That would be great.
Unfortunately, none of the POTY winner files are in the public domain. I am unsure if it possible to get a permission in the next days. A text-only announcement would be perfectly fine as well.

Thanks in advice and best regards, Steinsplitter

I can share from WMF verified accounts. Posting a past year's winner with the text would get much more attention. I don't see one that is PD or CC0. Do we have - or can we get - permission from one of the photographers?
