Photography is cool. Fulfilling photo requests is a great way to improve skills articles here on the Obsolete Skills Wiki. Sort of like a mini scavenger hunt. Following is a list of pages that link to this "Photo Requests" page, so it's a good place to begin your hunt. Have fun!
Some pointers: To add a photo request to a wiki page, add the
macro: [[Include(PhotoRequest)]]. Once you take a photo, you can find
help placing images on Wiki pages. If an image is out of date, it is usually best to keep it displayed for historical purposes by just moving the image tag line to a different area of the page.
