Hello All,
This is a message from WMTH. This is about 7:05am Thailand time or 00:05 (UTC). I try to do a test upload and see the following message.
"Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 has not started yet. Wiki Loves Monuments will start in September. You may still share your images, but they will not be eligible for the competition."
The URL is https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UploadWizard&cam...
Anyone got the same problem? Any solutions?
Many thanks, Taweetham
Same here when I tried to submit an image to UK contest :-)

I had that error when doing a test upload. I retried, changing the filename, and it worked.
That made me wonder: Is there a way for making the UploadWizard to append a random number to the default filename? I'm pretty sure lots of participants will have trouble because of trying to upload images with already occupied filenames, specially if the names come from cameras (e.g. DSC0001). If a random number is appended to the name (e.g. DSC0001 - 28392), we would heavily reduce this problem.

DSC0001 - 28392 is an obscure file name and should really be discouraged. File names should be descriptive. If anything, the help text for that field can be made clearer.

Hi Rasco,
I confirmed that "<api-error-unknownerror>" is a filename problem.
We should (1) tell the uploader that it is a filename issue. (2) allow them to go back to the page where the uploader may give a new name -- rather than give an option to retry.

Yes, I have received some e-mails from various people that they do have this issue in WLM CZ. I do believe however it is a filename issue, as it is highly logical to expect files named IMG_401.JPG to be kinda problem to upload... as pretty much everyone tried to do so in past 10 years. So they were kindly asked to change the filename... Aktron Wikimedia Czech Republic chairman ______________________________________________________________

Hi Rasco,
I confirmed that "<api-error-unknownerror>" is a filename problem.
We should (1) tell the uploader that it is a filename issue.(2) allow them to go back to the page where the uploader may give a new name -- rather than give an option to retry.

Hello All,
This is a message from WMTH. This is about 7:05am Thailand time or 00:05 (UTC). I try to do a test upload and see the following message.
"Wiki Loves Monuments 2014 has not started yet. Wiki Loves Monuments will start in September. You may still share your images, but they will not be eligible for the competition."
The URL is

Anyone got the same problem? Any solutions?

It's clear that obscure names should be discouraged (for Wikimedia Commons standards), but right now we may discourage participation with that limitation. There isn't even an option to pick a new filename when an error occurs in the UploadWizard; you have to start the upload process all over again. Also, there isn't a quick way to check if the filename that is about to be used is already occupied or not; you have to save, get the API error, and start over again.
Also, please note that the problem isn't limited only to obscure names. The "Eiffel TowerX.jpg" (for several values of X, and with no X) name is already occupied. The same may happen to popular monuments on each country.
That said, I insist: we should make participation as easy as possible. In most photo repositories (everyone except Commons?), you don't even need to assign names to uploaded files; they are automatically generated. Yes, they end being obscure, random names such as 12309803.jpg, but nobody cares about that! We can't change Commons naming policies right now, but we can, at least, help participants by reducing name collisions or making the error-fixing process as easy as possible.
For now, I'll try to explain in WLM-CO instructions that an "api-error-unknownerror" means that the photo filename should be changed.
