me. Phew).

Hello Florence
I have setup a campaign based on your data. It is available at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard?campaign=wla
Please note that you need to create Template:Wiki Loves Africa 2017
I guess... I
am not sure how to do that.
I copied the one from 2016 changing it in 2017... and yeah... result
is quite *atrocious**
*https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2017
I really have no idea how to fix that.
In the current
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard?campaign=wla
We should have
Wiki Loves Africa 2016 Upload Wizard. ---->
Wiki Loves Africa 2017 Upload Wizard.
The link for the "website" should be just removed
The link for the Get Started should go from
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2016/Participa…
---->
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2017
Follow us on twitter should be replaced by
Follow uson Facebook (with url
https://www.facebook.com/wikilovesafrica/)
Also, tell me if you want a default category to
be added to the images.
Last year, elements added by default to all images were
In the description : {{Wiki Loves Africa 2016 country|XX}}
With XX being the code of the country
So ideally, this year, adding in the description {{Wiki Loves Africa
2017 country|XX}}
Then the following in the file itself
{{Wiki Loves Africa 2016}} (in all cases)
[[Category:Images from Wiki Loves Africa 2016 to check]] (in all cases)
[[Category:Images from Wiki Loves Africa 2016 without categories]]
(when no other categories was added by the uploader)
[[Category:Uploaded via Campaign:wlafrica]] (in all cases)
So ideally this year...
{{Wiki Loves Africa 2017}}
[[Category:Images from Wiki Loves Africa 2017 to check]]
[[Category:Images from Wiki Loves Africa 2017 without categories]]
[[Category:Uploaded via Campaign:wlafrica]]
Example here :
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Sandance_OneTime_Film.…
Should the UploadWizard be asking both the
country where the photo was
taken and the uploader's country?
Last year, it only asked one question : Select the country where you
made this photo.
What should it do with them?
That was the
only question asked. Then there was a thank you step
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Upload_campaign_use_Wiki_Loves_…
That's it.
That got all the images in [[category:Images from Wiki Loves Africa 2016]]
Then also available in countries categories such as Images from Wiki
Loves Africa 2016 in Botswana
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_from_Wiki_Loves_Africa_2016_in_Botswana>
(or in [[Images from Wiki Loves Africa 2016 in an unknown country
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_from_Wiki_Loves_Africa_2016_in_an_unknown_country>]]
if there was no country selected)
+ all of them in [[Category:Images from Wiki Loves Africa 2016 to check]]
Resulting :
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_from_Wiki_Loves_Africa_2…
Then the template was displayed on the image description. I just did a
quick copy of last year for the english :
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2017_country/…
Is
there a template to be used to wrap the answers?
I fear I do not understand what the question is.
It can be refined later, but hopefully, this
should be enough for
getting uploads for the time being :)
Hmmm. Starting on ... how to fix ?
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Wiki_Loves_Africa_2017
Errrr. Confused... Very.
3 am. I go to sleep. Thanks for the help in the meanwhile !
Best
Florence
Best regards
