Since November 23 i have not been able to upload much with GWToolset.
When no files were uploaded in more than 24 hours (or 48 hours) i assumed a job was cancelled. Not so. I did a (too) small test which went well and resubmitted my jobs of molluscs from Naturalis Museum. This apparently made things worse:

There was some hopeful activity on December 4, showing that all jobs were still present and a few hundred images were uploaded. I also did short runs with only 5 records: those went well.
Since then GWTset seems stuck again as far as my jobs are concerned.
* What is the underlying cause and what can be done?

The XML input is hidden in the image pages (even parts not displayed on the output page). These could be datamined for wikidata or external use, even if the uploader does not have the time or experience to do it themselves...
Maybe worth discussing on a wikidata noticeboard? :-)

hi, nice upload
have you considered how you want to transcribe your data into a database or text format?
i don't know if this has been done on wiki, but for example see the Smithsonian transcription project (off wiki) https://transcription.si.edu/project/6950
i will raise the issue at wikisource.

A test with just 15 records succeeded, so i'll just resubmit the remainder of the halted job.

Dear all,
It seems GWToolSet stopped uploading yesterday 25 nov 2015 15:36? After a few weeks of continuous uploading of Naturalis images
(1200/day)
