Don't forget that whilst we have photos of a lot of things, we don't necessarily have *good* photos of them. In particular, Geograph consists mostly of low-resolution (and often low-quality) images. We could/should be encouraging people to share higher quality photos with Commons as well as covering subject gaps (e.g. by rewarding quality rather than quantity).
I imagined we were getting closer to an idea of a "pilot" along the lines WSQ was indicating. What I think we ultimately should aim for, in years to come, is not just a restatement of what Commons and "featured content" is for, 366 days a year. We do need a vehicle for outreach for those with data, not just photographers.
