Hi,
Thanks everybody for pinging me. I didn't even remember I forked that
script there... Anyway, I looked into it and it seems to work again,
except for two small details:
* There are no images for 2013 yet.
* The script expects all images to be in a single category. I didn't
find a simple way to get images in a sub-category using the api, i.e.
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&generator=category…
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&generator=categorymembers&gcmtitle=Category:Images_from_Wiki_Loves_Monuments&prop=imageinfo&gcmlimit=500&gcmnamespace=6>
doesn't
work if images aren't directly in the main category. Any Ideas how I get
them using the API without having to recursively go through all
subcategories?
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Categorymembers doesn't help too much.
Please feel free to fork the script if you like, you can just grab it
with wget.

[[Category:Images from Wiki Loves Monuments 2013]] will directly contain
all files, so no need to recurse sub-categories (and no, the api doesn't
allow that).
