I don't understand your point!
For the contest,only ten pictures per country will used, no? So the amount of pictures in
commons will be huge for switzerland, but still ten for the european contest, I don't
really see the lack of fairness, only if you consider a statistical point of view.
Logistic and promotion are the responsability of each participating chapter, again I
don't see the problem because the promotion will be local. For logistic, maybe you
talk about tag of the pictures? We already do it manually, with a template, if needed it
would be easy to replace the actual template by another one.
Again I don't see a clear reason our contest should start in september, the goal of
the contest is to reach the more people and make them new commons user/uploader, the
prices and the ranking is accessory.

I think the point is: maybe it would also have
advantages for other countries to do the contest in different times, duration, etc., but
we decided as a group to have it simultaneously for logistic, promotional and fairness
reasons.
Perhaps Commons will get more and better pictures from Switzerland, but we need to take
into account the bias that this will introduce to the European contest, as Swiss
participants will have more time to upload photos if photos from all three months are
entered.

I just want to make some point clear:
*WMCH support the european WLM contest and will help every chapter needing us
*the format of the swiss contest need to be on a 3 summer month basis because:
**weather could be howfull in september in lot of region of switzerland, other wmch
member have fun of me because I can't see the sky because of the fog! :-)
**we are building interaction with cantonal institutions in charge of swiss heritage, if
we succeed in our goal of covering 50% of the 4800 target monuments, the 2012 edition
will be a full collaboration with all of this cantonal institutions
**the wlm contest is part of the TAO project with the colaboration with seniroweb.ch,
this include the organisation of local event as organised travel in region with a
photgraphic "safari" folowed by workso to explain the uploading process. For
this type of event we need time, we can't do it in one month, or it will be only for
elderly people that are already confident with pictures and internet
Sincerely
Charles

I must say that I am very unhappy about this phrase: "... the Swiss
contest will have place in September because someone in Berlin has
decided differently".
This is not what I think, but this is the justification to give to
some important partners and to the organization.
Do you have a different one? Another different from: "... the Swiss
contest will have place in September because *we* have decided
differently".
