mediating information related to the state of a community can impact identification with that community and, accordingly, continued membership and levels of interaction. For instance, Dabbish et al. [11] found that by presenting members of an online gaming forum with a running list of participants in that game (e.g., showing individual players entering, playing, and leaving a game), the players who remained had an increased sense of the vibrancy of that community—that is, they noted an increase in common identity from the remaining players [25].

We can't know when users start/stop the app, but we could how when people upload a picture.

Maybe it could be shown in place of the small "Nearby" banner on the main screen if the user has not moved in 5 minutes? Evertime there is a new upload it would show "User ABC is uploading picture XYZ" for 1 minute before switching back to showing the most nearby item. Or maybe it could be shown in the peer review screen?

It could also show when a picture has been inserted into a Wikipedia article, for instance, even if the user is not the one who uploaded that picture.

—if I knew where my image was being used or how it was useful to somebody, I'd definitely contribute to the platform. -Man, age 26-30, India
