*I wonder if something closer to Rich Farmbrough's route might help here?
Would it be possible to use Geocodes to create a list of nearest articles
and the photos we have for that monument? We might need to set a maximum
distance of a mile. If we can then filter out articles that already have
images I suspect we could get a list that would be sufficiently user
friendly that we could put it in Signpost or put it in Teahouse or other
newbie engagement fora. *

*I used the Signpost to publicise the death anomaly lists a couple of years
ago and that attracted enough editors to make  a big difference. But first
we need a reasonably user friendly list where a high proportion of articles
would benefit from one of those images.*
