Hi Pyb,
Have to say I like the idea very much. I think many photographers would be
jumping in the opportunity. Also the discussion with the Saudi authorities
that are taking pictures already sounds great. Perhaps some of our Saudi
contributors could advise!
Best,
Reem

discussion with an organisation from kingdom of saudi with misk because
they know well what wikipedia do and give.
I'm sure is the best option because they able to contact the true organisme
that have the archive with the best quality requested to be inside commons.
even i imagine that a GLAM project will be ideal for that.

Dear Pierre-Yves and all,
I hope you all are doing great !
I know that the Saudi government invests in covering the Hajj with
professional photographers (around 30). It would be great if we could ask
them to donate those pictures. We could start this conversation through
the
Saudi contributors, or if you want I could ping
someone who could help to
initiate this conversation with their Royal Court - Diwan. Or may be
through Misk Foundation ?
This would let us optimise work and spend the potential budget in a more
relevant work/initiative.
Best regards
Emna

Hi,
First of all, my apology for my email in english.
It would be great to send an experienced photographer to cover the Hajj
2018 (or 2019).
There is a lot of pictures of the Hajj on Wikimedia Commons [1] but
almost
nothing of quality.
I would be happy to work on this project. I can elaborate the budget,
find
> some funds for the project (I think that some European chapters would
be
happy to
fund that), obtain a media accreditation, etc.. The number of
accreditations is very limited and Saudi Arabia probably censored a lot
of
> articles of Wikipedia, but let's try! Some wikimedians send Wikipedia
on
