In partnership with the U4C -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 18:30, 28 April 2026 (UTC)Commons Photographers: Our next meeting (05/2026)
[edit]Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
I hope you’re well and enjoy your time as a photographer on Wikimedia Commons. In my role of the new chair of the user group, I have a couple of updates to share with you.
After the election, the new board met for the first time on March 21 and immediately got to work. We elected the organization’s officers and decided to move from quarterly to monthly board meetings. We believe meeting more frequently will create more opportunities to serve our members effectively and help move the group forward.
We also successfully applied for a pre-conference at the upcoming Wikimania in Paris (July 21–25). If you’re planning to attend the conference, please consider joining us on July 21th for a day full of conversations about photography and Commons. Please sign up here if you’re interested.
And finally, it’s my pleasure to invite you to our first online meeting, which will take place on May 31. Our member Wojciech, an experienced concert photographer, will give a talk on photographing orchestras during live performances. I’m especially excited that we’ll have the opportunity to meet online again and am very much looking forward to this event.
Please feel free to sign up for our first meeting in 2026 on this page: Online Meeting on May 31st.
In the meanwhile, I hope you're well and have a great time taking photos!
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 14:09, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
