Thanks for sharing that Gideon - there is at least one Australian Wikimedian who this would be highly relevant to. I notice one of the selection criteria:
*Impact, including capacity to reach a significant audience: Your proposal must show it will have an impact, and show a capacity to reach a significant audience which is preferably, though not necessarily, Australian.* Clearly the ability to publicise content on the 6th most visited website in the world will give any WMAU endorsed candidate a strong advantage! I agree with Gideon that I find it likely that the committee would be happy to provide supporting materials to any Wikimedia Commons photographer who wishes to apply.
