Feedback for survey questions
by Tomasz W. Kozłowski 11 Oct '12

11 Oct '12

Hi, in the past few days, we have been working on the participant's survey that's planned to be sent out after the end of the competition (in Israel). The planned date is not yet known; I would like to send it out as soon as we have it translated into the 25 main languages of the participating countries. Taking last years' survey as a starting point, we have prepared 19 questions that I think would be useful to ask the participants. Because it's always better to have some feedback on such matters coming from a wider group of people, I would like to ask you to have a look at it and help us make it better. The questions are available on an Etherpad at <http://etherpad.wikimedia.org/WLM-2012-survey>; you can provide feedback on this very mailing list, or if you feel like more private, you can drop us an e-mail at <wlm-global-org(a)lists.wmnederland.nl>. Thanks in advance for your time :-)) -- Tomasz W. Kozłowski a.k.a. [[user:odder]]

by Romaine Wiki 10 Oct '12

10 Oct '12

Hello all Who is willing to write an article about Wiki Loves Monuments 2012 for the newsletter 'This Month in GLAM'? For the next edition of this newsletter several people in several countries write about what is going on with GLAM the past month, and that includes WLM. This would be nice to have for each participating country (at least a short summary with the results, but can be longer) and in an overview article. A first start with the contents can be found on the page linked below. Here you can add also countries which aren't listed yet. https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter/October_2012/Contents Earlier articles in the newsletter 'This Month in GLAM' were: https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter/February_2012/Contents/… and: https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter/August_2012/Contents/Wi… The main page of the newsletter is at: https://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/GLAM/Newsletter If there are any questions: feel free to ask!

Most photographed monuments
by Platonides 09 Oct '12

09 Oct '12

Several people have asked me for a way to view the most photographed monuments. This tool is now implemented http://toolserver.org/~platonides/wlm/monuments.php The most photographed monument from all countries* is Colombian 06-050, with more than 2000 photos. Although that identifier spans the old sector of the city of Tunja, so it's not really fair to compare it with 'conventional monuments' with are a statue or a building. * Disclaimer: If your country doesn't use identifiers or removes the identifiers from the description page, it is obviosuly not properly represented there.

Wiki Loves Monuments 2011 officially broke world record
by Lodewijk 09 Oct '12

09 Oct '12

Hi all, We have seen it coming for a while, but now it is official: Wiki Loves Monuments has been officially recognized by Guinness World Records as the Worlds Largest Photography Competition! With 168,208 submissions we squashed the previous record by roughly 50%. For 2012 we will likely squash our own record, but it will need some time to become official. Please find the blog post on the Wiki Loves Monuments blog here: http://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/wiki-loves-monuments-2011-officially-brok… Thank you all for making this possible! It was a great journey and I am very glad that all your work gets some extra touch this way! Best, Lodewijk

incorrect statistic by number of identifiers not in the lists
by Андрій Бондаренко 08 Oct '12

08 Oct '12

Dear colleges, I notice that statistic "incorrect statistic by number of identifiers not in the lists" in http://toolserver.org/~platonides/wlm/uploads.php?source=commons&author=227… incorrect. For example according to this tool the most prominent ukrainian uploader WoxBox <http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:WoxBox>has 441photo "with identifiers not in the lists" but it is not true, You could look at this list and find that most of these 441 photo in fact are present in our list. Could you fix it? It is vrey importatnt because we have nominations for users with most number of different listed identifiers. -- Regards, Andrij
