Thanks Maarten indeed for the great job so far! Wiki Loves Monuments would not have been possible without your enduring support in the past years - you were truly the soul of the contest, even if you weren&#39;t as visible to everyone. <div>

<br>
About three years ago we started this little photo competition to get more photos of monuments. In three years Wiki Loves Monuments grew to be the largest photo competition gathering over half a million photos. I was one of the main organizers for the last three years (Netherlands, Europe, world). I really enjoyed doing that, but all good things come to an end. I decided it&#39;s time for some other people to continue what I&#39;ve started; I won&#39;t be part of the WLM2013 organizational team.<br>

<br>
It&#39;s not that I will be completely gone. I will probably continue working on the monuments database and spend some time on the project as a &quot;normal&quot; volunteer.<br>
<br>
Thank you all for putting up with me and making Wiki Loves Monuments such a great project. I couldn&#39;t have done it without you.<br>
<br>
