Hello! I am Sannita, and I am the contact person for the Structured Data Across Wikimedia (SDAW) project.[1]

We are looking for feedback that can help us design and build some new *image recommendation features*, to provide more and better suggestions for image matches to unillustrated articles.

Our work will be based on the Image Suggestion API,[2] but we plan to experiment with some new approaches and ideas. More information about this project can be found on Mediawiki at [3]. Feedback is welcome on the dedicated discussion page,[4] where we also defined a series of questions about the aspects we are focusing on right now.

We are looking for relatively experienced Wikimedia users, in particular users who have experience in uploading media to Commons and/or in writing and expanding articles. For now, our research will focus primarily on Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons. We are looking for feedback from Wikipedias of different sizes and with different writing directions.

If your community and/or some of its users are interested in this, please let me know in private via email or on my talk page.[5]

Thank you in advance and hope to hear from you soon!

L.
