It could give an opportunity to Portuguese people to participate. Maybe you only need a
jury and send to the winners some diploms.
Yes, it does not sound very good but it best than nothing, I guess.

As the information and techy infrastructure is ready from last year, I wonder if it is
possible to simple let it run without support. I mean, let people upload photos of
Portugal, although there is no local award, and then a jury with external support if
necessary can select the 10 best photos for the international contest.

Subject: [Wiki Loves Monuments] WLM in Portugal.
Dear all,
As you may know, Wikimedia Portugal (WMPT) took part in WLM in 2011. A team of four ended
up making a very successful event with very little money!
However, early this year, they said they would not be available to continue and organize
the 2012 edition of WLM.
By them, João Miguel Vasconcelos and I stepped forward. However, we clearly underestimated
the workload involved, as well as the time we both could dedicate to this undertaking.
Furthermore, unlike last year, WMPT community seems much less enthusiastic about WLM.
So, we discussed the matter internally, and have decided not to hold WLM 2012 in
Portugal.
I'm sorry to be giving such a bad news, but it is better to announced it now, than to
keep postponing it one more month.
Thanks & regards,
Manuel de Sousa
Wikimedia Portugal
