Interesting! Out of the 51 materials and cultural heritage that was input in the WLM database for the 2012 WLM global contest, 61 Pictures were submitted

Its so amazing. I never thought we could do that much. Its really impressive.

We'll all done a great job and we need to congratulate ourselves.

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *Platonides* Date: Friday, September 28, 2012 Subject: [Wiki Loves Monuments] Improved tool for listing WLM uploads To: wikilovesmonuments@lists.wikimedia.org

I have been enriching http://toolserver.org/~platonides/wlm/uploads.php with information from the description page.

(Actually the tool was ready since at least 17th September, but it didn't catch up with the uploaded files until today)

It's strongest point is that it shows the monument identifiers along the upload information. If the identifier doesn't appear in the monument db, it is shown in red, so it's easy to center on «potentially problematic ids» (but don't take it as final, several red ids seem ok, looks like incomplete info in the db).

The new files are being parsed right now every 5 minutes. If you don't see an identifier for an upload there are several options:

1. It hasn't been parsed yet. 2. Your country doesn't use identifiers. 3. The user didn't provide an identifier. 4. The bot didn't found the template.

With different 'solutions': 1. Easy to detect since the country won't be shown either. Wait until it gets loaded or browse an earlier day :) 2. You have a hard work determining the right images, but there's little I can automatically do in that case. 3. The case we are trying to find. 4. Maybe the bot was expecting {{Denkmalgeschütztes Objekt Österreich}} and it was included through {{doo}}, your template allows up to three identifiers in one template (it accepts fine multiple instances of a template, but fr and ca needed to check for this case), it used some different call (eg. id= instead of 1=), it used yet another template (there are ~10 cases for Germany)... Bring that file to my attention.

I recommend setting an appropiately high limit and browsing the uploads per day to your country.

With the same backend, there's a tool grouping users: http://toolserver.org/~platonides/wlm/users.php

As the uploads information lives in a database, it is very simple to gather statistics from it:

We have 270274 photos right now (increasing constantly, we are at crazy speed), distributed in the following way: +---------+-------+ | country | count | +---------+-------+ | pl | 37316 | | es | 33592 | | de | 23281 | | ua | 23140 | | fr | 22002 | | us | 16717 | | cz | 14058 | | in | 13355 | | ru | 11158 | | at | 8413 | | mx | 7292 | | ro | 6718 | | it | 6276 | | nl | 5709 | | by | 5243 | | co | 4836 | | ca | 4272 | | ar | 3957 | | be | 3494 | | se | 2659 | | rs | 2430 | | cl | 2384 | | ee | 1987 | | il | 1869 | | za | 1566 | | ph | 1561 | | ch | 1116 | | no | 1107 | | pa | 798 | | sk | 707 | | dk | 405 | | ad | 254 | | lu | 216 | | ke | 90 | * | gh | 63 | * | NULL | 31 | | gr | 20 | | mk | 1 | +---------+-------+

(yes, we have 20 photos from Greece and 1 from Macedonia despite the fact that they don't participate in WLM2012 :)

It's also interesting to show the aggregation of files-per-day (these are UTC days): +----------+-------+ | day | count | +----------+-------+ | 20120928 | 14641 | | 20120927 | 17227 | | 20120926 | 13174 | | 20120925 | 12904 | | 20120924 | 11507 | | 20120923 | 14136 | | 20120922 | 10439 | | 20120921 | 10142 | | 20120920 | 8280 | | 20120919 | 7303 | | 20120918 | 8423 | | 20120917 | 9271 | | 20120916 | 10899 | | 20120915 | 7743 | | 20120914 | 8291 | | 20120913 | 9067 | | 20120912 | 8706 | | 20120911 | 8115 | | 20120910 | 9178 | | 20120909 | 10307 | | 20120908 | 8437 | | 20120907 | 7291 | | 20120906 | 6539 | | 20120905 | 7910 | | 20120904 | 7301 | | 20120903 | 6808 | | 20120902 | 8657 | | 20120901 | 7056 | | 20120831 | 522 | +----------+-------+
