Hi there, I thank Platonides' for starting a thread about creating a list of monuments that were destroyed in the past two months; credit goes also to Emijrp, who's [[Wikipedia:There is a deadline]] directly inspired this idea.
We've been thinking about creating another banner for the CentralNotice campaign, just like with WMF's fundraising, to involve more people in the competition. Platonides' thread discussed creating the list of endangered objects -- how about merging the two ideas into one? We'll create a short essay (five paragraphs at maximum, probably even shorter) discussing the idea of [[Wikipedia:There is a deadline]] with relation to cultural heritage objects, and have it translated into all the languages of the participating countries. At the bottom of the essay, we'll add a short list of cultural heritage objects that got destroyed in the past twelve months (and only those), with respective links to Wikipedia articles (or not - depending on the language). And we'll link the essay on CentralNotice, using a catchy phrase that mentions the danger that cultural heritage objects are in, and clearly calls the viewers for an action (take picture & upload it onto Commons). How does this sound like?
