Dear all,
I restarted my upload on september 22nd: I started uploading approx 2600 images with
works of art depicting birds. Until 25th of september the images were ingested into
Wikimedia Commons (they were slowly dripping in) but over the last two days no new images
are ingested. Does anyone knows what went wrong/why the upload stopped (again) and how I
can restart my job?
I also have difficulties estimating how many images and which images were ingested: which
log can I check? I can’t find the relevant log to see what was uploaded or what problems
were reported etc.
Thank you very much for your help.
best wishes

The logs for you in particular are at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=gwto…
If you want the list in xml or json format, you can do
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=logevents&…
. See the api docs for details. In particular leaction can be used to
filter by success/failure, and you need to use lecontinue parameter to
get the next page of results.
There are several entries that appear to be "skipped" due to the image
existing already in commons. The records numbers are in the 2800's
(The record numbers will skip around a bit, but should very roughly go
from low to high in order), so if you only have about 2600 images, I
would guess that a the tool went through all the images
It seems like that perhaps the xml file has the same filename for
several images. For example
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Inhoudsopgave.jpeg is marked
as being replaced by a second image after your initial upload, and in
the log, it looks like record 2815 was going to replace that image a
third time, except someone had edited that page in the meantime (
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Inhoudsopgave.jpeg&…
), so gwtoolset failed instead of silently overwriting
I also notice several of the templates and file names have question
marks in them. If the ? is unintentional, that might represent issue
with charset conversions possibly.
GWtoolset is still quite rough around the edges, especially for
showing progress and explaining what happened in case of errors.
