Hi all,
As you may know, there are several tools overseen by the WLM international team for Wiki Loves
-like contests. While I myself stepped down from the team a while back, I wanted to
send a (belated) quick reminder of some tools that are available.
Note that these are not all the tools available around WLM, only the ones that I (co-)maintain(ed) :)
== Statistics tools ==
Data is refreshed every 15 minutes.
If you want to know more about the tool, please see
The tool, beyond the “country race”, provides each competition with:
These two views may be helpful to gauge the health of your competition
If you notice any issue with the tool (bug, data missing, etc.), please file a task on Phabricator:
== ErfgoedBot and Monuments database ==
Some
might have noticed it − ErfgoedBot had been broken since March
(GridEngine deprecation). We managed to get back and
running just in time for September 1st.
For more information on the services provided by
ErfgoedBot (categorization, maintenance reports, etc.), please see the
documentation on Commons:
One of the most relevant tasks is categorization. Unfortunately, the bot’s work is slowed down by going over and
over thousands of images it can't figure out how to categorize.
→ it would be great if humans could have a look at the images left in
== Notification to uploaders without email enabled ==
Every three minutes, ErfgoedBot retrieves the list
of users who uploaded, in the last few minutes, pictures marked as
participating to WLM. If an uploader has not
enabled e-mail, the bot leaves a message on their talk page explaining
that it is necessary to win a prize (unless it has already notified that user).
You can help translating the message in more languages at:
We
hope that this will help to avoid situations of winning pictures with
no email enabled, only detected much later when the uploader is not
around anymore.
Hope this all helps,
--
