Hi!

This is relevant only to smallish countries where one language is mostly used and that language is not used anywhere else (like Latvian, Bulgarian, Estonian, ...).

This PetSacn query finds uploads without categories BUT with Latvian description (new uploads at bottom of list):
https://petscan.wmflabs.org/?language=commons&project=wikimedia&depth=1&categories=Media%20needing%20categories&ns%5B6%5D=1&templates_yes=lv&ext_image_data=on&file_usage_data=on&interface_language=en&active_tab=tab_output


To use it for other language, change lv to other language code. You can do it in URL (templates_yes=lv part) or in PetScan under Templates and links.

OK, went through ~1/3 of that list. Quite boring :) 

I found mostly users from France and Germany that uploaded images from monumental buildings but that did not participate with WLM. Some from Spain. May be worth the effort to ask them if they're aware of the competition, and whether they are trying to participate. They upload typically quite a lot of photos, and are not newcomers. That leads me to the impression that even if they are trying to participate, they are probably not following recommended processes. 

In case a local organizer wants to follow-up:

Thanks. I removed about 1/3 of the images based on large series, and created a gallery to browse through: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Effeietsanders/scratch

I'll browse a bit through it tomorrow to see if anything jumps out.

Hello Lodewijk

Here is the list of the 13401 images uploaded yesterday that don't
include {{Wiki Loves Monuments 2017}} (and were not flagged as bot):
 https://archivos.wikimedia.es/wikimedia/es/wlm/non-wlm-uploads_20170902.html

For the record, there were 7332 uploads (7451 including bots) that did
embed {{Wiki Loves Monuments 2017}} template.

I don't know who would volunteer to review them, but if there's
interest, a tool could be done to provide such lists.

Best regards
