- Argh, what a dreadful day for it. Anyway, is there a single page where we can see all the submissions? --Shawn in Montreal (talk) 03:14, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
- I think they'll be placed in commons:Category:Wikipedia Takes Montreal. Another thought, why are the images uploaded to commons use generic computer-generated serial numbers as names? These names are nearly useless since everyone has to click each photo and read the description to determine where that picture was taken. OhanaUnitedTalk page 04:07, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. I was given to believe that organizers were expecting a much bigger haul of photos. This was just terrible luck, weather-wise. The few categories that are up now on the common page, is that it? Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:48, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
- Due to Hurricane Irene, all participants were wet and cold... so we decided not to retain them after the hunt to upload their pictures themselves in Commons. We are currently putting them in the "Toolserver / Contest" in order to classify them in the coming days. It's a huge job that will take some time, so we ask your indulgence until the update of Commons. Sincerely, Antaya (talk) 16:05, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
