Hi everyone! Just to follow up: it seems that we indeed have found someone
to help out here.
Info about the tool is not online yet, but will be soon, I hope.
It'll be a tool on Toolforge, providing an easy interface for
beginners/laypeople to easily add microcontributions of structured metadata
to files on Wikimedia Commons.
We'll work on it as a pilot for Structured Data on Commons, with images
from pas Wiki Loves Africa campaigns as a first set. Support is (for now)
only needed for a few months, most of it in April.
As I said: we have probably already found someone who will help out - but
if this tool sounds interesting to any of you, feel free to reach out!
Cheers, Sandra

Could you please be way more specific?
Does "tool" mean something to be hosted on Toolforge?
Does some source code already exist? Where to find it?
If no source code exists, where to find more info on that tool/idea?
What does "supervise" mean? One time, or for years to come?
What does "there's need" mean? By who?
