Request for Massmessages | Questionnaire for photographers

Hello! I have a request from the Heritage Guard Network project team. We'd like to send an invitation to participants of WLE and WLM photocontests to fill out the form about the safety of the photographers.

Here's text of the message, and here's the list of receivers. Thanks a lot! OlesiaLukaniuk (WMUA) (talk) 15:51, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Working. @OlesiaLukaniuk (WMUA): Your signature should be used, meaning the message should be in your name, right? -- CptViraj (talk) 15:56, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Do I understand correctly from the radio buttons at the bottom of the survey that this questionnaire is not open to people who routinely do this sort of photography but are not inclined to enter contests? There is no option to say that you have not participated in either WLE or WLM. - Jmabel ! talk 18:09, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

The survey is mostly targeted for WLE\WLM participants. But your point is also make sense, so I added another option in the form. Thanks! OlesiaLukaniuk (WMUA) (talk) 12:10, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes, my signature can be used. OlesiaLukaniuk (WMUA) (talk) 12:09, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
