Further recommendations

[edit]
  1. Since 15 July 2016 Belgium has freedom of panorama, including permanent public exhibitions. This means that, in principle, you are allowed to take photographs from a public place. You must respect other laws like the general copyright and image rights. Museums may impose certain restrictions.
  2. Please register the GPS coordinates if your device has this capability.
  3. Also video files are accepted.
  4. Give a useful, unique, logical, and clear file name, allowing easy search by name.
  5. As of this year, Wikidata metadata is also collected for each photo:
    • Captions in different languages (at best copy the short description, once more)
    • Depicting "This is", a Wikidata attribute that indicates what the picture represents
  6. Please add at least one (existing, non-overlapping) category to your picture

All this ensures that your photo is easily findable.
