Hello! Welcome aboard Caroline :)
Just a pointer to an area that might interest you and other students in your line of study would be, see [1] below. You should also consider reading about the upcoming Wikiloves Monuments photography competition at [2] below. If I may ask, I would really like to hear of how the event at Mai Mahiu went, or rather what it involved. Also see the Wikimedia media files repository at [3]. regards, Stephen. 1. http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Main_Page 2. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2012 3. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page On Sat, Jul 14, 2012 at 7:20 PM, Caroline Osano <[email protected]>wrote: > > > hi oscar > i would like to help as much as possible and i would talk with some of my > lecturers to help and some of the production company i know of.
