Talk:MobileFrontend/Photo upload

I quite like the idea of games as it gives more incentive to upload articles. Just recording my ideas on this but am aware there is some overlap with the existing ones!

I could imagine a fun web/android/iphone app that gives you missions based on your location. For example if I was in Westminster, London I might get a mission to go visit Trafalgar square or Big Ben. When I get to within a certain radius of said location I would receive information from the wikipedia article relating to that location. I could also choose to not visit that place and ask for another suggestion. It could be marketed as a 'pocket guide book' that allows you to explore an area. One could imagine giving points for arriving at a location and for uploading images from that location and being able to join 'games' with other players. Such a game reminds me of geocaching.

I could imagine then when editing an article we could suggest images from the commons that might be applicable to the article and could be used. Jdlrobson (talk) 14:35, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
