Dear Flor,

We usually ask Swiss heritage institutions to upload the highest resolution 
they have. There is a number of precedents you may refer to:

- Swiss Federal Archives
- Swiss National Library
- Historical Museum Basel
- Zentralbibliothek Solothurn
- Zentralbibliothek Zürich
- ...

Should we shortly discuss this off list?

Cheers,
Beat

Subject: [Commons-l] Minimum resolution image for Commons

Hello!

I am in touch with a museum that is thinking of uploading images to Commons. 
They are a bit uncertain about uploading high resolution, but I told them the 
resolution they need to upload just needs to be good enough for illustrating 
articles without being pixellated. The thing is, I am unsure about the minimum 
size of such an image. I tried poking around the instructions but didn't find a 
direct answer.

Do you know which size is "the minimum" that can be accepted on Commons?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Warm wishes,

--
