Hello all,
Today I have performed a check of all the landing pages. I have contacted
all the organizers when they had a difficulty in their website/landing
page. Some wrote that they do not participate this year, other teams are
still working. I have updated the list of countries on Commons:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2014/Partic…
The list of countries contains now 38 participating countries. There are
also 7 other countries of which the team is supposed to start at 1
September, but isn't ready yet. I am still waiting for replies to my
messages, until then the upload wizard of these countries is still active,
but the CentralNotice is not. The 7 countries what I am waiting for are:
* Armenia & Nagorno-Karabakh - no organisation?
* Aruba - no landing page/website
* Cambodia - no landing page, no translations, no reply to mail
* Morocco - no landing page, no organisation?
* Portugal - no landing page, no organisation
* Qatar - no landing page
* Venezuela - website not up-to-date or no landing page, no organisation?
If anyone has more information about these countries, please share it with
me.
Thanks all for the help and organizing!

Hi All,
A number of countries use commons pages for this competition. Should
we semi-protect them in anticipation of high traffic? I am not saying
there will be intentional vandalism but some embarrassing error may
occur for wiki newbies. I have seen some for my country and I have
filed a request for WLMTH 2014 pages:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Bl…
Anyone wishes to join the request?
Best,
