This information allows the international team to assist you with you competition more effectively and in a timely manner. It is also a crucial signal for teams outside of our project to plan their activities. For example, Wikimedia Foundation's Fundraising team will need access to this information to minimize campaign conflicts as much as possible.
This year, we've also introduced a tab called Organizers in Wiki Loves Monuments landing page on Commons
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2017/Organizerswhere we'd like to encourage you to add the list of your team members and a short description of what they do in your team, and if they don't mind, their photo. :) This information is helpful for those from outside of the Movement or the project who end up on that page and want to learn more about your national competition, it also provides an opportunity for us to get to know each other via this one page. :) Every year, there are more than 150 national organizers that make Wiki Loves Monuments happen and it would be great to know more about all of these amazing people. :)
If there are questions/comments, please send them our way. :)
