I really love this, it would be great if this feature could be implemented!

As one of the beta testers of the Commons app, please let me know if there is any way I can help Josephine. Al of the data of the Dutch Rijksmonuments in Wikidata should be correct (thanks to Multichill). 

We will not be joining WLM in 2020, but that does mean I have time free this upcoming fall to do some testing. :)

Best,

Ciell

Hi Philip,

Thanks for the feedback!

- Pre-filling the description and categories will be relatively trivial as we already do this in some situations (e.g. uploads from our "nearby places that need photos" map), and we do intend pre-filling to be part of the feature when we implement it. 

- The choice of data set is indeed a major concern. I had a brief discussion with Lodewijk and Stephen about this earlier, but the consensus was that we should discuss it with all of you (the national organizers). When we start the planning process in 1-2 months' time, I will probably create a page where everyone can provide their input on the suitability of various sources for their country.

Best regards,
Josephine

Hi Krishna,

which data is this based on and how will the campaign data be filled from the android app? As far as I'm aware, there's no automatism to prefill said data and it would be quite an additional burden on volunteers to have to sift through pictures uploaded via the app that are missing categories and descriptions that are otherwise prefilled.

If the source used is indeed Wikidata, at least in Austria that data hasn't been accurate ever since Wikimania Montreal.

BR,

Philip

Subject: WLM integration in Commons app

Hi all,

Just wanted to let you all know that we are planning to implement WLM integration into the Commons app (an Android app for users to upload photos to Commons) in the near future. :) Due to the current situation, we are unable to provide concrete estimates for when it will be completed, however I can say that September is unlikely, November might be possible, and in the worst case scenario it will certainly be done by 2021.

In the next month or two, I hope to be able to provide more details and a clearer timeline, and we will also start taking suggestions from organizers etc for desired features at that stage. I will post an update here as soon as possible.

We look forward to working with all of you to make WLM participation easier. :)

Best regards,
Josephine / User:misaochan (Commons app project lead)
