Requests

[edit]
  1. I see photography at commons:User:Toresetre. Can you select 3-5 pictures from there and post them to this grant request as a portfolio of the kind of photography which you would do? Also can you please link to a particular gallery showcase?
  2. Can you make a commitment to write and publish an article about this experience?
    1. Ideally, can you commit to write 7-10 sentences for the The Signpost, the English Wikipedia newsletter? This is an inspiring idea and I would like to encourage other people to do event photography. This is an outreach model which we can replicate.
    2. Please report on how venues treat Wikimedia Commons photographers and when you get journalist or press access versus regular attendee access?
    3. If you publish anywhere that is fine, even if you only want to publish in Norwegian. If you do not want to be public an event report only works but please consider that I would like documentation on the outcome.

Thank you for your comments and input.
  1. Certanly. I've added a few more photos now. As for a gallery / showcase, the best would possibly be my user page at Commons. I have a personal website for showcasing my photography, but not all the content there is Creative Commons.
  2. As for producing articles, blogpost or reports, I can contribute to such. But I'm mainly a contributor for visual content and structured data, and I prefer to do written content in collaborations with others.
    1. I suggest I provide some bullet points and photos, and we get other contributors to write out a blog-post?
    2. I'll make a note of this for my final report on this grant.
    3. I'm fine with producing content in either English or Norwegian.
I can also refer to my reports from previous grants: Concert Photography 2017 Report, Concert photography at music festivals Report (2016), GLAM Newsletter of April 2016 and a blogpost by Wikimedia Norge in connection to Oslo Jazzfestival (2017).
