4 years ago Yes, a call to action will almost always be great... even if there already are images. Great suggestion.
This also raises the question of how to add links to source maps.
For example, the source map here is: https://www.loc.gov/resource/g4284s.pm009730/?r=0.658,0.341,0.133,0.078,0
But... it would be even cooler (and possibly farther down the line, unless there's an obvious way to index into a raster) to have a zoom view of the underlying map that's not integrated into the map...

Do we want a call to action in each case?
Could have some in-place documentation about how to do this. For example:
Add images http://url expands to:
- Add tags for image:1, image:2, and so on, populated with URLs of relevant images. Please also include related credit/license information for each image as imagecredit:1, imagecredit:2, and so on. Some great sources of historical imagery are link http://url, link http://url, and link http://url.
