The template could work, but an easier way for you may be to somehow get to the content of this page:That is also more sustainable for future campaigns. It may be occasionally a bit out of date, but generally is correct.Best,LodewijkOn Thu, Aug 12, 2021 at 8:28 AM Bodhisattwa Mandal <bodhisattwa.rgkmc@gmail.com> wrote:Hi Josephine,The list of participating countries can be found here - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2021/Participating_countriesThe template (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2021) is not also updated according the list mentioned above. Looks like, it is just a copy of previous year's competition and needs update. Australia is still not willing to participate in the competition this year, so maybe it will not end up in this template.Regards,Bodhisattwa_______________________________________________On Thu, 12 Aug 2021 at 20:28, Philip Kopetzky <philip.kopetzky@gmail.com> wrote:Hi Josephine,this depends on the values defined in the template itself: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2021&action=edit - Australia doesn't exist (yet), but IE does.I must say though that this kind of upload circumvents the categorisation work and assigning the correct heritage ID that is currently done in quite a few countries. Wikidata-Items with a linked commons category are easy, but the majority of objects will not have its own category and just dumping them in a WLM category puts the workload on other people. There are countries where the template accepts the Wikidata-ID, but ideally the upload link would use the country's wlm capaign and assign the heritage ID as a parameter.BR,Philip_______________________________________________On Thu, 12 Aug 2021 at 16:32, Josephine Lim <josephinelim86@gmail.com> wrote:Hi all,_______________________________________________Just a quick question about the WLM 2021 template that we are trying to add to WLM uploads made via the Commons app. We currently retrieve the country that a monument is in, then convert it to the two-letter country code and insert it into the template.However we are still getting errors; as shown at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Newstead_Gasworks_4.jpg , I have uploaded a test image with the template {{Wiki Loves Monuments 2021 |1= au}} but the page says "English: No or incorrect country code indicated in the {{Wiki Loves Monuments 2021}} template". I have experimented with various other country codes listed at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_country_logos ; interestingly some like "al" or "ad" do not work, but "ie" does.TLDR: Does the template only accept some countries and not others, perhaps only countries participating in WLM 2021? Is it possible for us to get a machine-readable list of these countries?
Thanks!Best regards,
Josephine
