Hi all,
As many of you know, there are several tools overseen by the WLM
international team for Wiki Loves -like contests. While I myself stepped
down from the team, I wanted to send a (belated) quick reminder of some
tools that are available.
Note that these are not all the tools available around WLM, only the ones
that I (co-)maintain(ed) :)
== Statistics tools ==
See <https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikiloves/monuments/2021>. Data is refreshed
every 15 minutes.
If you want to know more about the tool, please see <
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Tool:Wikiloves>
The tool, beyond the “country race”, provides each competition with:
* A day-to-day table of image uploads and joiners (uploader who uploaded
their first image on that day). <
https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikiloves/monuments/2021/Ireland>
* A sorted table of all uploaders, their upload count (as part of the
competition) and file usage, and their registration date <
https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikiloves/monuments/2021/Ireland/users>
These two views may be helpful to gauge the health of your competition
If you notice any issue with the tool (bug, data missing, etc.), please
file a task on Phabricator: <
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/1/?projects=tool…gt;.
== ErfgoedBot and Monuments database ==
While being mostly in maintenance mode, with no new features planned, good
old ErfgoedBot should still be up and running (at least for countries that
are not yet using Wikidata) − big thanks to André Costa for giving it some
love :-)
For more information on the services provided by ErfgoedBot
(categorization, maintenance reports, etc.), please see the documentation
on Commons:
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Monuments_database>
One of the most relevant task is the categorization (described at <
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Monuments_database/Categorizatio…)
− as far as I can see based on the bot edits, it seems to be working fine.
== Notification to uploaders without email enabled ==
Every three minutes, ErfgoedBot retrieves the list of users who uploaded,
in the last few minutes, pictures marked as participating to WLM. If an
uploader has not enabled e-mail, the bot leaves a message on their talk
page explaining that it is necessary to win a prize (unless it has already
notified that user).
You can help translating the message in more languages at:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:WLM-enable-email/i18n
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:WLM-enable-email/heading/i18n
We hope that this will help to avoid situations of winning pictures with no
email enabled, only detected much later when the uploader is not around
anymore.
Hope this all helps,
--
