Hi,
I would like to suggest that if you have specific questions still - akoopal or basvb are usually hanging around on #wikilovesmonuments on freenode irc and might be able to help you in setting up.
Some general tips: * Keep the group moderated - that way you can check the license, tags & other things for each incoming image * Have several group moderators * Take a good look at the 2010 group for NL to see what kind of explanations and FAQ you should prepare * Always prominently link to the commons upload form * Don't accept any images before September 1.
Maybe Multichill can help out with the transferring the images to Wikimedia Commons.

Could somebody tell how to create *and organizate* the Flickr group?. I don't use Flickr usually. How is organized the Flickr group?. What name should it have?, something like "WLM Espa?a 2011"?.

Hi Eli,
For NL we have choosen 'Wiki loves monuments 2011 Nederland' as group.
You will need to create an account on flickr. If done, klik on 'groups', then in the right there will be a link to 'create your own group'.

Hi Andrei,
Last year we also used Flickr. We interpreted it at the time as the
moment
that the picture was added to the Flickr group - we opened the flickr
group
on Sept 1 and closed it again on Sept 30. That way we could do the bot
part
on our ease.
Best,

Hi,
Someone asked us if photos already on flickr are eligible for participating in the contest (providing they are correctly marked and licensed during the contest). I wanted to know your take on that. I believe that we should allow these pictures as, they will be uploaded to Commons during September by a bot, but Nicu believes we should ask for the pictures to be uploaded during the contest.
Also, do we have a robot for image transfers or is each country responsible for that?
Thanks, Andrei
