hello there! has anyone tried locally to organise something around outreach to photographers whose pictures were made on photographic films?
we have not had such a campaign in Ukraine before, just individual efforts, like when a Wikipedian convinced an old photographer to upload his pictures of lost heritage to Commons, they had to scan his films to do that: https://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/photos-of-destroyed-heritage/ as this year (to make sure people are not roaming around taking pictures for their own safety) for the Ukrainian part of the contest we decided to accept only pictures taken before February 24, 2022, we thought of maybe looking for ways to reach this audience -- photographers whose pictures are on films, so most probably old enough... but maybe there are some tips/things to be aware of when dealing with scanned films, and somebody on the list has travelled down this path already, and can share useful information? (sorry for crossposting, i have also asked about this on the telegram channel) З повагою / Best regards, antanana Wiki Loves Monuments Ukraine Disclaimer: This letter is sent in my Wikimedia volunteer capacity, not as a Board member of Wikimedia Foundation
