[Wiki Loves Monuments] One picture participants

[Estermann Beat]

In this context, we should also re-think how the banner messages are formulated.
Some of them are somewhat misguiding with regard to the number of pictures that can/should be submitted.
Yesterday, for example, I came across the Russian version on my daughter's computer; it was formulated in singular, along the lines "upload a picture of a monument and win a prize!" - I think there have been similarly formulated banner texts in other languages as well...

Many people do ask me if there is any limit in the number of photos to be submitted. This really sounds good!

Hi Guillaume,

sounds like a good idea, but I would phrase it as a 'welcome message' and an invitation to submit more. But sure, welcoming people is always good!

Hello,
Some participants upload only one photo. Some of them don't know they can upload a lot of pictures.
I think we can send them a message to be sure they know this rule (I have already did it for Cameroon).
We can find these participants with emijrp's tool: https://toolserver.org/~emijrp/wlm/stats.php
Guillaume
