- Abstract (at least 300 words to describe your proposal)
In our Wiki Loves Monuments presentation, we give a general overview of what happened last year and what is going to happen in the 2012 edition of the contest. This session is intended to provide a more in-depth information for people who are involved with the organisation of Wiki Loves Monuments or those that are interested in getting involved.
The session will be organised as an open panel, starting with some basic information on the status of the preparations as of July. If the submission gets accepted, we will try to collect questions from interested participants beforehand, and provide detailed answers to them during the panel, and answer any questions that might follow up.
As Wiki Loves Monuments starts on September 1, the panel will also be used as a basis for some last-call work to be done on the project. We also hope to have longer behind-the-scenes talks about what's ahead of us in the weeks to come before the launch of the contest.
For more information, please refer to the last year's presentation.
