Whilst going through some of the thousands of photos I managed to get a CC release for from the Korean Culture and Information Service,[1] I came across 200 photos from the 2013 Special Olympics World Winter Games held in Pyeongchang, South Korea.[2] There is an "article" (for want of a better word) on English Wikipedia[3] and Chinese Wikipedia[4], where the images do not see any usage. The only usage these images see on our projects (related to the actual sporting event) is a single image on Spanish Wikipedia on its article for the Special Olympics.[5] Funnily enough, the en.wp article for the Special Olympics World Games[6] uses an NFCC image which fails the NFCC criteria.[7]
Outside of the 2013 Pyeongchang games, Commons' coverage of Special Olympics is basically non-existent.[8] The next Summer games are in Los Angeles in 2015, and the next Winter games are in Graz in 2017. Could be good to increase coverage of this one area which I have noticed seriously does suffer from systematic bias on our projects.
