Greetings and Salutations -
This email is for all the photographers out there. Not just the pros, but
anyone that both has and uses a camera in the Bay Area once in a while.
As most of you know, there is a Wikipedia article for just about everything
(and everywhere). One of the major problems, as many see it, is that a
large number of these articles don't have pictures.
For example, approximately 1 in 4 BART stations do NOT have pictures. You
would think that with a ridership of 350,000 people a day, someone would
have thought to take pictures of all the stations, but apparently not.
Rather than bore you with more examples, I have a simple request for
everyone out there that uses a camera:
Please, skim over the list of requested photographs in your county (see
links below) and see if there happens to be anything near by that you can
visit and take a picture of (at your earliest convenience). We'd love to
see the content uploaded on Commons, for the betterment of all Wiki's.
