Hi Hubert,
thanks for summarizing your ideas. The actual situation will be a little
different most likely. I had a short chat with Maarten yesterday, and it
seems like the upload form progress is going well. Don't pin me down on
details, but this should give an idea.???
1. We will indeed be able to use the new upload wizard
hi Lodewijk,
We do not care which upload-Form we will use, important for us is the
possibility to handover predefined informations.
2. There will be a 'campaign' for each
country. For example the campaign
'wlm-ch'
The same in Austria, but this will be part of my next efforts,
what
possibilities we have, especially if and how we are able to place
category-related banner inside Wikipedia.
3. Each campaign will be translated into several
languages (always make
English available for tourists!), for example uselang=en
4. It will not be possible to call a database during the upload process.???
I know
it. Therefor our solution, using informations directly from the
Tables.
5. The user will provide the identifier of the
object in the form
This is exactly, what we will avoid. What happens, if the User
have no
idea, where he will get the ID? This is, in my opinion, the first weak
point in the system.
Last year we did this too, and it worked quite well. We had several methods
explained how they could find the identifier - through Wikipedia's lists,
through a map with all the monuments on it (using the coordinates) or in
another way. I believe someone was working on making it possible to query
the database too etc. Maarten (or someone else) might be able to give more
details. We can provide a link to that within the form. If we can transfer
the identifier with the url, we could prefill it. But that assumes they
already look it up on beforehand.
