@m Great story! Are these photos by any chance under CC-BY-SA 4.0? Would be great to have them on #Commons https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Chaos_Communication_Camp_2023

I'm late to the #Wikimania2023 and #Commons-uploading party (because I want to sort my pics out a bit before uploading), but I was surprised to see that this category doesn't have more in it: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:August_2023_Singapore_photographs

Uploaded a few of my photos from this week's Hayley Kiyoko concert to Wikimedia #Commons, including some of Allison Ponthier, who previously had no photos on her Wikipedia page

(also her music is pretty great too!)

Cities have become one of the main settings for addressing growing #inequality. “There is a need to raise the so-called ‘land question’ again”, says Jean-David Gerber. In a research project with CDE, he investigates urban #commons in🇨🇭and Ghana.

One of my #staticSites is taking a long time to build, but actually I think it's partly due to #Flickr rate-limiting it (it hits their API for photo metadata). I really should just add a 'cache forever' option, because mostly the metadata doesn't change. (Although I do like the fact that the rebuild process also serves as a way to check that all assets – on Flickr, #Commons, and the #InternetArchive – are still available.)
