Hi everyone! Just to follow up: it seems that we indeed have found someone
to help out here.

Info about the tool is not online yet, but will be soon, I hope.
It'll be a tool on Toolforge, providing an easy interface for
beginners/laypeople to easily add microcontributions of structured metadata
to files on Wikimedia Commons.
We'll work on it as a pilot for Structured Data on Commons, with images
from pas Wiki Loves Africa campaigns as a first set. Support is (for now)
only needed for a few months, most of it in April.

As I said: we have probably already found someone who will help out - but
if this tool sounds interesting to any of you, feel free to reach out!

Cheers, Sandra
