Wakerley
In February 2015, Wakerley provided an unexpected learning experience. One of our cohort added an image at 11:12. Then it disappeared. And a new one appeared! Wakerley must have been on someone's Watchlist, as it was deleted at 11:16, and the new image was added at 11:18. We learnt that there must be more than one place called Wakerley, how checking coordinates could have avoided this, and the value of watchlists.

These articles all come from: UK articles with co-ordinates but no image. Then someone (User:Edwardx in this case) has to determine whether or not a suitable image(s) exists on Wikimedia Commons.
