Hi all,

Like every year, we need to put together a good jury for Wiki Loves
Monuments 2022. It is a complicated and delicate process to come to a
balanced jury, and I would like to outline the criteria here, and to ask
for your input. I have agreed to take the lead on this process - but would
definitely welcome your input, and help.

As in the past years, It is important to aim once again for a jury that as
a whole is neutral and balanced in many ways. This means ideally:

* A mix of photography experts, heritage experts and Wikimedia experts
(aiming at a total size of 8-10)

* Geographically balanced so that no two jury members come from the same
country.

* Balance in many other ways imaginable (while at the same time, one can
never assure a balance in all aspects)


At the same time, there are some practical considerations:

* Jury members must be able to write and read English

* They must have the time to commit to judge 200-500 photos in three rounds
over a period of 3 weeks in December

* While jury members can participate in a local competition, their photos
cannot participate in the international finale

* Jury members should not participate in any national jury for 2022
(previous years is OK)

* It would be helpful if the juror would be willing to share their real
name for the jury report.

* Jury work is in a volunteer capacity.

If you know someone who would make a good juror, please contact me
privately with the suggestion. At least let me know who the juror is, how I
could contact him/her and why they would make a good jury member (and
whether you have reason to believe they would accept the nomination, if
asked).

I will do my best to put together once again a qualified and diverse jury,
with your help!

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Rubén Ojeda
