Hi Andrea,
this question also came up on the iberocoop WLM list, so I'll repeat my answer here:
You will find some useful information about this in our European Heritage Awards application, which might also contain more useful explanations. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:WLM_EHA_submission_2011.pdf - watch out, big file (16MB). Check the section 'results' and further. A very incomplete overview of press mentions is here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2011/Press_me... - Maybe WMES has a better overview for Spain somewhere, which might be more interesting to your governments. It at least included coverage in El Mundo and El País and on RTVE.
We estimate that the contest websites of the 18 countries together got some 7,5 million hits through the month of September. Number of uploads is 160.000+ by 5000+ people.
Hopefully it helps. For 2012 we have not yet secured partners, that will take time. Maarten could of course contradict me here :)

There is a list for monuments in Alghero at http://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Llista_de_monuments_de_l%27Alguer although they did not entered the contest of WLM 2011

Hi all, as you probably know, Italy this year is willing to participate to WLM, even if it's against the law :-) Our strategy is to gain as many partnerships as possible with local institutions and associations, those who can sign agreements and have "rights" on the monuments. Thus, we created a website for spreading the word: http://www.wikilovesmonuments.it/ (still under construction)
My question (the first of many, be sure :-) is: is there anywhere some press coverage on the contest? It would be nice for us to select articles to show the importance of WLM.
Moreover, do we already have a list of partners of WLM 2012? I recall Europeana, Europa Nostra, someone else?
Thank your for your help.
Aubrey
