Hi everyone,
I just added England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales to the monuments database. For technical details see https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49047#c3
Some issues I came across: * Every country has a system to go down the tree like world -> <country> -> <province> -> <municipality>. We use ISO 3166-2 for that (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:GB). Currently we don't have that for the UK. Would be nice to add * List contain nested templates; I prefer not to have them (always source of bugs and problems) * Missing categories on Commons; The category tree under https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Listed_buildings_in_the_United_K... seems incomplete. You want to have that done before September. I'd rather not have the double intersected categories like https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Grade_B%2B_listed_buildings_in_C... because that actually makes it harder to locate images. I'll leave it up to you. * Missing commons category links; Once you've created the missing categories you should add Commons category links from the lists. This is used by the bot to automatically categorize all the newly uploaded images. * Scotland seems to have two templates; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:HS_listed_building_header#Duplic... * Some pages you should add to your watchlist for September: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_im... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_im... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_im... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_im... * Cardiff seems to have it's own redundant template at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cardiff_listed_building_row . This is not harvested right now, should use the standard one

Is {{commons category inline}} the template that needs to be used so the the bot can automatically categorise images? Will {{commons category}} also work and will it work if a name different to the page title is specified in the template?

No reason why we couldn't split the West Midlands county page, for instance, by ISO code; there would be seven new pages as a result.

en.Wikipedia uses subtemplate extensively, for dates, coordinates and more. They're well structured and well documented, and not restricted to English topics (though there is an OS map refence template that is UK specific). They're also not going to go away.
- Scotland seems to have two templates;
- Cardiff seems to have it's own redundant template at
Both need to be resolved.
