I'll definitely be there (of course!) - and I guess that everybody who'd be interested in getting such a contest off the ground in the UK would be welcome (correct me if I'm wrong) - Wikipedian or not. But this will of course be a brain storming meeting, so it is not necessary to do *everything* at one meeting.

Hi all,
We've previously had discussions on this list about the UK participating in Wiki Loves Monuments. There were a number of issues raised, and it would be good to sit down and brainstorm the solutions to those issues, and seeing whether we've got a critical mass of people to participate in WLM in September 2012. So I'm starting to organise a brainstorming meeting in Manchester early next year to do just that!
If you're interested in brainstorming and helping make WLM:UK 2012 happen, then please sign up at: http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Monuments_brainstorm
Can't say right now whether I'd be participating. But I had a brief word with someone from OpenStreetMap at the last London meetup about the issues I see around WLM, and the response was basically that they have plenty of data that would be relevant. So could you try to invite them?
