Oh, but I would love to see somebody try to stick a plaque on Buckingham Palace
without being shot and/or arrested!

106 FAs - that must be close to a record for any one place outside of Chicago.
Perhaps the next project should be somewhere where we don't yet have so much
featured content, but an easier town to get to than Monmouth?
Better yet, the UK chapter could invite bids from Wikimedians who want the
Monmouthpedia experience in their abode, and councils who'd like to pitch for
the title. Wikipedia town of the year is the sort of accolade that some
councils would really like to get, and if the Council is behind it then every
museum they grant fund should be reasonably cooperative.
If Monmouthpedia were morphed in a Wikipedia town of the year award then I
believe we'd have something that could run indefinitely

My experience is that "how do I create an article" comes very high on the list
of FAQs in workshops. Hence, I have suggested divorcing MediaWiki skills from
Wikipedia skills (as dictated by the experience levels of participants).
