Have you seen an article on Wikipedia that needs a photograph but you can't travel a thousand miles to take it? Do you love taking pictures for the wiki but aren't sure what our needs are? This page is designed to solve both problems by matching photographers with articles that need photos. This list is sorted by locations, with each location containing two sections: one, a list of editors who can take photos at that location and the other a list of articles from that location that need photos. It is recommended (not required) that this page be used mainly for timely requests (signed and dated), which will keep this page (or sub-pages) a manageable size, and useful. Timeless requests can go in the relevant sub-category under Category:Wikipedia requested photographs using ((Reqphotoin)). For instance, requests for a public royal wedding processession might go here (being a one-time event), whereas, requests for a royal castle would use only ((Reqphotoin)) (as it doesn't matter when somebody takes that photo).
