Hi guys,
i've added a photo counter to the wlm.eu and wlm.nl websites. This
counter shows how many photos have been uploaded to a specific country
(such as the Netherlands) and globally for the .eu site.
To add such a counter yourself you can use the following piece of HTML
and Javascript. Simply replace the name between the quotes behind
'CATEGORY' to the name of the Category on Commons. You might want to
separate the piece of Javascript and HTML to make it load faster. In
that case, put the <div> tag on the place where you want the counter
to appear and the piece of Javascript just before the closing </body>
tag.
Kind regards,

<div id="wlm-counter">Loading statistics...</div>
<script>
(function() {
window._wlmCounterCallback = function(data) {
for (var i in data.query.pages) {
var cat = data.query.pages[i];
}
(document.getElementById('wlm-counter')).innerHTML =
cat.categoryinfo.size;
}
// Change this to the cat on Commons that holds your images...
var CATEGORY = "Category:Images from Wiki Loves Monuments 2011",
url = ''.concat(
'http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query',
'&prop=categoryinfo&titles=',
encodeURIComponent(CATEGORY),
'&format=json&callback=_wlmCounterCallback'
);
// Load stuff
var s = document.createElement('script');
s.src = url;
(document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]).appendChild(s);
})();
</script>
