Hi Lucy, Apologies if this is answered somewhere. Is tyere a particular type of event they had in mind?
For example, I've been looking at WikiShootMe and noticing lots of red circles where we do have photos on Commons but nobody has connected them. An organised drive could be fun and useful for Wiki Loves Monuments but I'm not sure how well that translates into an in-person event.
