If we want to build up our image library of lost monuments then WLM is perhaps not the best place to start. Rather than a photo hunt for what is available today we need a hunt through attics for things available from the past. Much was destroyed in the war, and quite a bit since. Even where buildings survived and were restored often the stained glass windows were lost.  But there are copyright issues when the photographers died in recent decades. I would like to load some of my grandfather's photographs, and I  think that my Mother would have sole inheritance rights to his copyrights, but with one of her uncles it gets more complex.

I was wondering if somebody had (or was willing to prepare) a list of
monuments around the world that could have been photographed

I think it would make for a great piece of news for release during the
contest, in the lines of [[en:Wikipedia:There is a deadline]] essay, to
motivate participation.
