Help for photographers and contributers in Mexico and Latin America

Hi ARipstra!

I have seen your recent uploads, and your "deep dive reading research", but I do not speak the Spanish language. Maybe for new photographers it would be useful to have a Series of Month-Categories, like Category:March 2016 in India (with many photos!) for Mexico (or additional Series for other countries in Latin America without such series at the moment?) Existing Commons-projects: Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay (with the main Cat. Category:March 2016 in South America). If you continue Category:January 2016 in Mexico (in Category:2016 in Central America) and tell your friends, that there is a location for new photos or other media to use in Wikipedia-articles in that media boxes, you have a project!

Calendario Lunar 2016.

Wikivoyage-holidays? (see Category:Wikivacaciones 2015 (Colombia), but please make subcategories or help the new contributers to categorize the photos!). Or contribute to the series of new photographs, taken in the last days: for example today Category:Photographs taken on 2016-03-23 (to use in es-Wikipedia). Or add some media (and Spanish text!) to February 2016: I have used some photos from Colombia-Wikivacaciones there. Start March 2016 (Redirect Marzo 2016? like März 2015 to Commons-page March 2015, with a link from German-Wikipedia de:März 2015), or make a Commons-link from es:2016 to our Commons page 2016 and add new photos and text in Español there:

We have a very good visited "Calendario Lunar" there, where you can add more annotations (links like the RedRedirects Febrero 2016 and Marzo 2016 there (make it blue!), or add new lunar-photos from Mexico with links to the page of your city, or where the photos of the moon are taken). Videos of 2016? More Songs or Audios? So, now I have to make a break, maybe I visit you later again (Collaboration in March 2016?) --LudwigSebastianMicheler (talk) 17:35, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
