Mohammad, Thanks for doing all this. The story of the people behind Wiki Loves Monuments (both the local organizers and participants) is a very much untold story, at least at the international level.
Just so others are aware of it as well: In the international team, we have discussed with Mohammad to turn some of these stories to blog posts for the WLM blog. They are too good to be told only on a couple of platforms and we'd love to see more eyes on them, for people to learn more about Wiki Loves Monuments and the humans that make it happen. :) Lily On Sat, Jan 20, 2018 at 3:57 AM, Suyash Dwivedi <suyash.dwiv...@wikimedia.in > wrote: > Thanks for Information we will do that > Thanks > Suyash Dwivedi > > On Sat, Jan 20, 2018 at 5:32 AM, Mohammad Hekmat <m.hek...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> The international team is running a campaign on WLM Instagram and >> Facebook accounts called "Monumental Stories."
