Abstract

The right photograph can add a lot to an article your host institution publishes about your editathon, leading to free publicity and good will for your organization, or to a Wikipedia article about a particular author. The easiest way to get a photo with the right copyright status for publication is to take one yourself at a Wikimedia event, book festival, or signing event.
