Dear Monuments Lovers, Over the past 3 years, the Wiki Loves Monuments photo contest has developed from a one-country activity into a global endeavor that every year in September brings Wikipedians, Wikimedians, and photo enthusiasts together in order to shoot great pictures illustrating Cultural Heritage and to make them available on Wikimedia Commons. The photo contest has also turned out to be an excellent tool for the community to reach out to new contributors. But what will we do when we have good pictures for virtually every official monument in some countries? - Please join us at Wikimania to look into the future of Wiki Loves Monuments! And share your great ideas already now on the Wiki! http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2013/WLM_Futu... Kind regards, Mónica Mora and Beat Estermann

P.S.: Don't hesitate to forward this message to your local mailing list!
