Dear all, I put in copy the WLM main list to help us to fix this situation.
The status today in Switrzerland is that we have a big set of lists in the German Wikipedia, and two sets of list in the Italian and French Wikipedia that do not follow the same editorial choice. The important point is that the content is really different, and we can not obviously use so different list for a national contest.
We may copy and paste the german list in commons or FR and IT wikipedia, then translate the list name and templates, but we would have to manually check the name of the more than 6000 object because the german list have only name in german.
We have excel sheets with most of the monuments with Original name.
My question is the following :
-can we copy paste the list in FR and IT wikipedia, and fixing the name in the same time or,
-or work directly in the WLM database, by duplicating the german list for the french and italian , and afterwards replace the object name by the ones in the excel sheet (need to check KGS number and canton for duplicate)
Thanks to all
Charles
Hi Charles,
The lists on German Wikipedia containing KGS A and B objects contain more objects than the Excel Sheet from FB KGS. This is due to the fact that the Wikipedia entries were first generated based on the PDF-files available on the KGS website and then complemented by entries from the Excel sheets. Entries that are present in the PDF files but missing in the Excel sheet haven’t been deleted from the Wikipedia lists. – This is because the Excel Sheet represents work in progress that needs to be double-checked by the cantons before the next version of the PDF is produced.
Furthermore, for some cantons, German Wikipedia contains lists of objects that are protected at the cantonal level but are not recognized at KGS A or B objects. – So there are several thousands of objects in the list that are not included in the Excel Sheet.
Cheers,
Beat

I have one question about the list, I don't remember having seen the answer.
what is the overlapping between the KGS list in the excel sheet and the german list, 100% exact same size, 100% but more in one of the two sets?
