A contribution to Wikipedia (pages without pictures), I discovered it thanks to the French initiative Les Sans Images. It was difficult but a good training: I had to not copy the photos but derivate a lot from them so the portraits could be under libre license.
I'll upload them later to Wikimedia. I'll need to cut them to illustrate each of their profile.
Clockwise: Li Tingting, Zheng Churan, Wei Tingting, Wu Rongrong, Wang Man.

Good to see you contribute your skills to awareness of these causes. Pretty insane to learn how people are treated on this very same planet. Most fitting would be if someone would print these on stickers too!
Those are great portraits, and they really add to the article. You know, you could ask the WMF for a grant to produce this sort of illustration for Wikipedia. They have a lot of money, and good encyclopedic open-license content like this would be well worth funding.

A minor note: if you add "upright=1.7|" to the wikitext in an article, the image will display bigger.
Hey, thank you Wikipe-fan for the info!
Merci!
Wikipedia editing is sort of a socially-acceptable outlet for infodumping at people :).
I trust you know there are tools that you can set to automatically upload images, with any available metadata, from your website?

There are even volunteers who will build custom scrapers.
OK, infodump done!
Bonjour !
