Hi Sandra,
I started testing it and I think I'm missing something quite basic. If I go to https://test-commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Sheikh-Lotf-Allah_mosque_wall_a... , I don't see any "Structured data" tab which I would expect to see based on the instructions [1]. On the other hand, for a file such as https://test-commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Head_of_calico_cat_with_open_ey... I do see the tab. What am I doing wrong?
Also, while I understand the basics of Wikibase and Wikidata, I'm slightly lost as where we are with the different components of SDC with regards to Commons and/or Wiki Loves Monuments. For example, * are we at a place that we're ready to represent a Commons page such as https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_Cloisters_at_Gloucester_Cathedra... via Wikibase completely? or are there components missing? If they are missing, what are those? * What do you mean when you say we can organize the WLM campaigns on Commons with structured data? By "organize" are you referring to the landing page of the campaigns? For example, should I assume that all the info that we show in the landing page of Iran's contest at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2018_in_Iran can be represented by structured data?
On my end, both as an international WLM organizer and a local organizer, I can say that I can benefit from a virtual online meeting where we can have some of these types of questions answered directly. While I appreciate the documentation, amending it with a virtual meeting may be necessary as there are a lot of nuances both on your end and our end, and understanding these nuances will have impact on our feedback on features such as uploadwizard.
Best, Lily

Hello everyone! I hope all is well :-)
Structured Data on Wikimedia Commons (SDC) will become available this year. With SDC, Wikimedians can add data from Wikidata directly to files on Wikimedia Commons. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Structured_data/About
Benefits include multilinguality of Commons files (users can find and describe files on Commons in many languages), and machine-readable data with better APIs, that offer more advanced possibilities to build applications like Monumental - https://tools.wmflabs.org/monumental/
In the not so far future, you will also be able to organize Wiki Loves... (Monuments, Earth, Africa, Art, Love, ...) campaigns on Wikimedia Commons with structured data. (This is entirely optional, but maybe some of you are already keen to do this, especially if you already have monument or other data in Wikidata!)
In the course of 2019, the SDC development team wants to improve Wikimedia Commons' UploadWizard to support the campaigns that want to be powered by Structured Data 'new style'.
Do you have ideas and wishes for this? The team wants to hear which structured data features you want to see in UploadWizard, and we are now organizing a consultation about this over the next two weeks.
This page gives more context, and links to where you can leave feedback. We're collecting this first round of input until April 17.

Many thanks in advance! Warmly, Sandra
