In the last couple of days there there has been some interesting analysis about the geographical distribution of Pokemon features in relation deprivation, and ethnicity which is closely tied to deprivation in many cultures. Essentially the large crowd-produced data sources have less participation and thus less coverage in areas of high deprivation. 

It would be very interesting to assign geo-referenced articles to census mesh blocks and plot density of articles / images against measures of deprivation.

It would be even more interesting to come up with incentives to increase the balance of our content.

RichFarmbrough has been helping me out with lists of articles that have a UK geocode but no image. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Rich_Farmbrough/temp138 I've been testing image adding as a newbie exercise. Due to the Geograph the UK is much better covered on Commons than most other places, 0.1% of the world's land area used to have over 10% of commons and still has about 6%

The same sort of lists could be created for other countries, but whereas in the UK we have images on commons or can import them from the Geograph, for most other countries this would be a prospect list for photographers. Of course countries that lack FOP or have FOPNC will have lots of articles about buildings that we can't photograph, but maybe we can filter out articles about modern buildings in countries with restrictive FOP?

I was thinking along similar lines as Stuart, using OSM to navigate and encouraging users to take photos of landmarks and other buildings where that's permitted by FOP. Landmarks for which we have only small photos, old photos (more than about 3 years), or no photos could be prioritized.
