Many US historic districts have had several expansions, which results in multiple reference numbers. In at least two cases, Charleston Historic District in South Carolina, and one earlier, having multiple refnums in the table results in the upload button being disabled. I removed the extra refnums (leaving the first) in both cases and the upload button then worked. Any suggestions for a general fix?

A possible solution would be to add an extra parameter: alternative_refnum. You can even display both the refnum and alternative_refnum in the table, but they would be two seperate parameters.

You mean problems with upload wizzard? By default it has restriction of no more than 25 characters to be put in ID field. If you put more then "upload" button does not work. You can change it by putting in your campaign form other number. "0" means that there is no such restriction at all.
At some point this year I've seen a bug about adding a second custom field to the UW and I'm pretty sure there was a commit to go with it. I can't find it right now, but it might be worth asking about it on irc.

As far as I know, the only way to make this happen nicely is by uploading it with one ID, and then copypasting the template with different id's.
The problem is that apparently the database only can 'remember' the first ID it sees. So best make sure the first one is the most relevant. But in the future it might be that we can actually handle multiple-id.

Which database? I have a db prepared to store the monument data, and I did contemplate this case. (It does however, not register monuments on multiple countries, so even though we know of at least one instance, I considered it rare enough not to complicate the schema for that)
ehh, erfgoed-database? Not sure :) This is simply what I'm recalling from conversations last year, but things may have changed since.

It can use a second field. A few countries are using it, too. The option is in the Campaign Configuration, just below the first field.

I have a question for another special case: How should we handle photos that capture multiple monuments?
There are two cases when this may apply in Colombia: 1. Some complete city zones are monuments as a whole. At the same time, some buildings inside those zones may be also declared monuments, so a photo of them would actually illustrate two monuments (the zone and the building). 2. The obvious: a photo may contain two or more monuments that are very near.
Shall the uploader put the Monument template multiple times, one for each ID? (For case #1, I think a bot may do it at the end of the contest).

Yes. In your case, {{Monumento Nacional de Colombia|123}} {{Monumento Nacional de Colombia|456}}
