I have no idea about bots and statistics, but you can say me what I must do more exactly and I'll try to help.

Thanks a lot, Vincenç! It would be very helpful if you could run the same for other countries (with the note of the exception for Switzerland, with different dates, of course). Thanks,Lodewijk

I have checked dates of files in categories WLM 2011 for Andorra [1] and Spain [2]. I can run it for other countries if necessary. At first glance: * Photos uploaded on August 31th between 22:00 and 23:59 h are valid as it is UTC time and it was September in local CEST time zone. Now I realize I should have checked uploads on Septembre 30th between 22:00 and 23:59 h UTC. Ok, I'll try it again later.
* Most photos uploaded on October are identified as bots uploading from Flickr WLM groups. * Some should be checked further and probably it shoud be removed the WLM 2011 template.

Subject: [Wiki Loves Monuments] help for the guinness world record proof
Hi all, as you may recall, we have applied for recognition as a guinness world record with the 165.000+ images of 2011. However, to finalize that application, I need some help. We need to determine the final number of submitted picture - and will need two witnesses who will sign a statement. I'm pretty far with the witnesses - but need some help in making it easy for them to confirm the full number of images.
I thought the easiest way would be twofold: - make sure that the category 'Images from Wiki Loves Monuments 2011' is "clean" - that there are only valid images there.
- create a list of url's with all submitted images. To do that, I'd use the following definition of a valid submission:- For Switzerland, images submitted in July, August or September 2011 (starting time is in UTC+2, closing time in UTC+0).
- For all other countries, images submitted in September 2011 (including Hungary, since the images submitted later were not considered for the international contest)- For all countries, possible delayed bot uploads (we'd need to manually identify those)
- For all countries, the image has to contain the {{Wiki Loves Monuments|country code}} template (I don't think other templates were in use)- For all images, check whether it is a derivative of an existing image (probably easiest to just list all images that fulfill all other requirements and have a 'other versions' mention - and manually check those)
This should add up to all the images that were considered as a valid submission and could have been nominated for the international contest. Am I missing anything? It would be great if someone could dig through the category and help clean it. Also, if someone could use a script to generate this list of url's once that is done. That way, for the proof we can both make a screenshot of the category, showing the full number, and count the list of url's and let the witnesses do some random checks on them.
Best, Lodewijk
