*I wonder if something closer to Rich Farmbrough's
route might help here?
Would it be possible to use Geocodes to create a list of nearest articles
and the photos we have for that monument? We might need to set a maximum
distance of a mile. If we can then filter out articles that already have
images I suspect we could get a list that would be sufficiently user
friendly that we could put it in Signpost or put it in Teahouse or other
newbie engagement fora. *

*I used the Signpost to publicise the death anomaly lists a couple of
years ago and that attracted enough editors to make a big difference. But
first we need a reasonably user friendly list where a high proportion of
articles would benefit from one of those images.*

Hi Platonides, assuming that the link being red
or blue tells you
whether an article exists,
It tells you whether that identifier exists in the
lists or not
(according to the tool knowledge, there may be some quirks).
then that would be a good way to spot
monuments that don't have articles - though as the monument links aren't
clickable you also need a database to find out what monument links to
the ID.
I know, last year tool did have them clickable, but with so many
countries I didn't make an app to show them this year.
Maybe I should have linked it to the erfgoed api, but the output would
have been quite raw.
But even if the monument ids were clickable, you
still need a
way to identify the articles which don't have images.
Right.
It wasn't intended as a complete solution, only as a way to provide "a
list of monuments that we definitely have images for".
As mentioned, the bigger problem is getting the article associated with
each monument (if it exists).
