Rexford,
Can we have more information about the judging process (deadlines,
selection
process, how many people will you have in your jury, any tools
you already have ready for the juries to use)?
Deadline? Yes if all complete and the best images ready before the 30 of
this months.
Selection process? Hmm, no idea this part. But the process revolves around
getting best images submitted from ghana.
Number of people in jury? A couple of persons have showed interest. But
I'll be working on trimming down amount of images ( by removing the ones
that can't be part of the best images ) before handing over to the jury
we're yet to settle on.
Any tools? Nope. No tools know yet.
About shortlisting:
It all depends on your tools. If juries have an effective rating tool,
they can
check all the images in a multi-staged process without the need of
external aid (i.e. the organizers).
In Colombia, for example, juries checked themselves all the participating
images
(about 2800 in WLM2014) without much trouble. In fact, the most
difficult stages were, by far, the last ones, when they had to pick the top
10 among a bunch of good "surviving" images.
In your specific case, in order to mantain the integrity of the contest,
I would
suggest you NOT to process the images before the juries do it, as
you told us that several people in your team also participated in the
competition.
I think the processing will be specifically about removing images that
don't even qualify being on commons. The criteria for uploads of images for
the contest, some deviated totally.
The contest was about food. I saw an image of a football team. Just bogus
image, in relation to what the contest is about.
Those are the kinda of garbage I'll try eliminating before handing over to
the jury.
Cheers,
Oscar (Racso)

We're looking for a jury to select the best 5 images.
