Maybe you could contact the local European Heritage Days? http://sector.openmonumenten.be/

Dear Romaine,
I would love to contact the German speaking authorities and media of Eastern Belgium, and I already considered it earlier. But then I hesitated because I could not name a local person to carry on with. Wouldn't it be strange for the East Belgian media if we would organize a photo competition and there is no person in their own area?
Kind regards Ziko

Hello Lodewijk,
Url for the Belgian mailing list: http://lists.wmnederland.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/wlm-be
The biggest need would be later on that someone/some users will make this competition known to the media in Luxembourg. We have spoken the possibility of letting Luxembourg be part of the Belgium WLM and only got positive reactions. Also on lb-wiki it is said that they would like to join / be part of another country's WLM competition. I wrote a message to them, but received no reply yet. I will write to some users personally to ask if they want to help out. With all the respect I wish they will reply, but as they expressed earlier and concerning the positive reactions of core organizing users of WLM Belgium, I think we should consider that Luxembourg will be part of the contest organized in Belgium.
Our current activities are:
- Organizing prices
- Organizing jury
- Creating website
- Preparing lists, especially those for Wallonie on nl-wiki, and on
fr-wiki?
We also think about the media attention we would like to accomplish. This has to be done in Flanders in Dutch. In Brussels in Dutch and French to local papers/media. In Wallonie in French and considering the German speaking parts of Belgium in German too. And in Luxembourg in German and French. My German and French are too worse to write a professional message for the media, I hope other users can help us out with getting messages send to the media in Dutch, French and German in both countries?
The projectpage on nl-wiki for WLM be is: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikiproject/Erfgoed/Belgische_Erfgoed...
Greetings - Romaine

Just to be sure: everybody is aware of wlm-be@lists.wmnederland.nlhttp://mc/compose?to=wlm-be@lists.wmnederland.nl? That is a list dedicated to organizing Wiki Loves Monuments in Belgium (and Luxembourg?).
Romaine, does this require further discussion (for example, with other WLM-be volunteers), or should I consider this as definite?

Jane,
About the Brussels and Wallonian heritage institutions, I don't know if there is something. Belgian guys may have some information about it, I'll ask them.
For the French part, there is already a page : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monument_historique. I'll try to add more information about the history but I have few of time. The page in French is pretty complete : if you translate it, it will be easier for me to correct it.
For the European Heritage Days in France, I think the website will come. It was online before summer, with the old version. If you need any more information about France, please ask me.
Benoît

: Benoît, That would be wonderful, and if you have any more info on the Brussels
and
Wallonian heritage institutions in the fr wiki, let me know and I will translate those in the en wiki also. I am also missing a wiki page on the organization for protection of
French
monuments, and the organization of the European Heritage Days in France seems to have a problem with their website: http://www.journeesdupatrimoine.culture.fr If you have any info on them that I could use in a wiki page, that would
be
great! Jane 2011/7/21 Benoît Evellin <benoit.evellin@wikimedia.frhttp://mc/compose?to=benoit.evellin@wikimedia.fr
Great !
I'll try to put it on fr-wp too.
Benoît
