Yes, please.

GCI tasks are supposed to take 2-3 hours to experienced contributors. Many GCI
tasks take more than that to first-timers, and they rduce the time invested as
they learn.

If Wikiquote logos are more complicated then we can have one per task. I would
still give it a try, but you're the boss.  :)

That too, but it can take months, or more than that, to reach to that point.

Also, we really need more GCI tasks. There is no problem in encouraging
students to learn to trace images out of rasterized ones. Reviewing the results
is relatively simple (they look alike or they don't), and I can help.
