Presentation: A vision for a better Wikimedia Commons. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 01:57, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Encourage participants to take at least one photo for the annual photo of the year (2023) organized by the UG (mostly Frank). Perhaps incentivize with souvenirs and similar items. OtuNwachinemere (talk) 18:26, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Maintain a booth for portrait sessions for any interested participant all through the conference duration. Also provide the option of printing photos on-site.OtuNwachinemere (talk) 18:28, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Short training session on how to take good photos that tell thousand stories. Ngostary2k (talk) 20:03, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Photo exhibition at a university. -Filipinayzd (talk) 19:03, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe a short presentation or workshop (to be repeated 2 or more times) “How to take better photos with your smartphone” would be useful for many visitors. Not about the smartphone specs, but about the basics of composition, light, etc. Background: When I browse new uploads to Commons, I see many smartphone photo contributions which are interesting and useful, but could be better and more useful when the users would adhere to some basic principles, starting with holding their smartphone straight (not tilted). --Aristeas (talk) 14:20, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
