The contributor has sent me 50 photos for a 1 page article, what do I do?

It is best that you try to whittle down the photos yourself before sending them to YOLO, as you will know better which photos are more important or relevant to the subject.
Photos of small groups of students generally publish better than large groups, as the student's faces will be easier to see. Omit any photos that are similar in content, out of focus or cropped awkwardly. Send a mix of portrait and landscape photos if you have a mix, as that gives the designer more options with the layout.
See the Knowledge Base article 'How Many Words/Photos Do I Need for an Article?' in the Getting Started section for more information on how many photos/words are needed for various sized articles.
