Bloom clock project/What's this plant
Bloom clock participants with digital cameras can take pictures of plants that they're unfamiliar with and load the images to Wikiversity for identification.
Suggestions:
- Load images even if they're poor or small (cellphone cameras are fine).
- When the plant is identified, the image might be suitable for uploading to commons if it's good quality and/or commons doesn't already have a photo.
- If there's better photos on commons, we'll just delete the photo and replace its thumbnail with the commons one (it's probably best not to upload low-quality photos to commons).
- We may in the future have quizzes each week to "test your knowledge", using the photos. (See Plant identification for details).
To add a photo just add the following to the bottom of the page, replacing "IMAGENAME" with the name of your photo (don't add [[Image:IMAGENAME]] or Image:Imagename ... just the actual name of the file!)
