Dear Yohann, My point is very simple. If things are still in planning, it should not be announced as a contest. It can be a nice community drive for uploading photos for a specific domain. No issues with that. However, if it is announced as a contest, rules and regulations are necessary for a contest. And they should be published well in advance before the contest begins.
Ultimately, it is your call being the project co-ordinator. I was just trying to go out and reach to the photographers community beyond Wikimedia.
