I found that writing a comment in the id field label of the upload wizard drastically reduced the number of incorrect id's last year. See e.g. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mwe-upwiz-campaigns-wlm-se-bbr-...
So assuming your id's always take a similar format you could just say something like "should be numbers and look like XX-XXX-XXXX"

Hi, everyone,
Recently I noticed that some participants do not place ID of a monument correctly. For example in this photo [1] ID is marked as "Ship_sunk_sev [2]", but it is not correct. Correct number of this monument (if I dont mistake it is this one [3]) must be 85-002-0003 (according to our list [4]). Imho this participant was too lazy to
find a correct ID and wrote something by hart :)) though most of our participants are accurate with ID
What is recommended to do in this case?
Just to correct an ID. If you notice that one participant systematically fails to provide a correct ID, they may require some explanations on their talk page.
Cheers Yaroslav
