The sad thing is that one major thing that won't
be available this year is
international prizes. Even if we get international team, I doubt they will
apply for a grant from WMF and ask for prizes for international winners.
In this case, I don't think we really need an international team.. Romaine
is doing good. He's providing good technical support.

Hi All,
My understanding is different. There are at least three people
volunteer to be on the international team. They have indicated their
intention on this mailing list:

If we really need to have more volunteers for the international team,
I believe that we can do so. But the question is probably beyond
that:
What do you expect to get from an international team?
Technical support?
Value-added to the competition?
Best,

Hi all,
I was approached about the international website, after Saqib's email
about
this.
I see it this way: To the best of my knowledge, there is /no/
international
wiki loves monuments competition in 2014 - not enough people volunteered
for
an international team. At the same time, there are some /national/
competitions that will be organized, but without a real international
layer.
This is no problem, as we discussed before the possibility to have Wiki
Loves Monuments international in odd years (2013, 2015 etc) and Wiki
Loves
Earth international in even years (2014, 2016 etc).
This has the implication that I will alter the website sometime soon to
reflect this intention. I will remove the links to the national
competitions
from the sidebar to avoid outdated information. I will link to the
commons
page for more information about national competitions that may or may
not
happen in 2014.
If my assumptions here are off the chart, then please speak up. If I
totally
missed an announcement, please let me know.
Hope that helps and clarifies,
Lodewijk
