User:Kevlar/Mixed Martial Arts Photographs

I've been kind of frustrated with how many MMA Biographies are missing photographs. Not sure how much success I will have but i'm going to start reaching out to Promotions, Fight Clubs, MMA Websites, and possibly individuals to request that they contribute pictures to Wikimedia Commons.

At the time that i'm creating this rough draft of this page, 5 of 11 current UFC Champions (Daniel Cormier, Robbie Lawler, Rafael dos Anjos, T.J. Dillashaw, and Joanna Jędrzejczyk) don't even have a single picture. Ugg, gross!

Two resources I have found so far that might be useful to people wanting to contribute photographs are: WikiProject Photography/Guide for Professionals and Uploading images. Please feel free to ask me questions here by editing this page or send me an email I will do my best to help with any questions people have.

I did add a gallery to UFC 100, and personally think it would be great if we had as many pictures as possible to fill out galleries. Just one editors opinion though.

Going forward i will do my best to create a list of Biography pages that lack photographs, this may take some time to create a good list.

Thanks in advance! Kevlar (talk) 17:24, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
