Strong support to Bala's statement. The Tamil wiki contest is
different from a photowalk. The main aim of it was to increase content

Also, Noopur, Anirudh, Nikita, Konark, don't feel guilty about
categories. It's not something that individually matters. That is a
collective responsibility.

The question just got asked when I was about to ask it.
The problem is that the organisers end their activities with the upload of
hundreds of images. The cleanup is expected to be done by un-named, unknown
others. The encyclopedic value of the images that the people took in the

Yes, Konark. But I do not want to point figures to one event. In my view
all events are culprits.
Imagine the problem of processing 15K images of the Tamil contest - I
shudder to think!

All help is welcome,
these two categories are a must, you can add further categories if
they already exist or if there is a justifiable reason to create a new
one you can create those and add the cat to these files.
Though, I would suggest we all refrain from adding too many categories. I
