Hi there,
thanks to Luxo, we now have a bot that rotates pictures (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Rotatebot). This is really great.
Good. I planned doing something like that some months ago, but got other things and forgot.
Maybe we could create a JS thingy, that allows the user to select the box, that should be cropped. The JS could save the coordinates to the image description and the bot could do the rest ...
Regards,

Don't reinvent the wheel. Box-selecting is already at [[MediaWiki:ImageBoxes.js]]
