What climate/biodiversity photos do you need? (Climate Visuals)

Hi everyone, Climate Visuals is working to increase the photographs available to Wikimedia Commons in their library and is seeking insights from the Wikipedia community about the climate change photos you need and would use.

(The Climate Visuals library is designed to increase the impact and engagement of climate change photography and information via their creative commons photo gallery and evidence base).

What are the specific climate- and biodiversity-related topics that you need photos for? What articles or topic areas are you working on, or planning to work on, that could use more compelling photos?

Please do let me know below and I’ll pass the message on. Climate Visuals will use this info to collect and curate existing photos that would fill these gaps. Thanks! TatjanaBaleta (talk) 13:33, 22 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mobile view glitch

Not sure how to report this, but the mobile page for "Ecology" has some sort of glitch whereby the text scroll can be shifted about a half inch to the left and off the screen. Can somebody on the back end fix this? Just letting you know. 142.114.188.138 (talk) 23:05, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Cullen328, there seems to be something to this. Do you know who fixes stuff like this? Drmies (talk) 23:08, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
