Some time ago I played around with computer vision to get images categorized on Commons. I documented this at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Multichill/Using_OpenCV_to_categoriz... . I don't think I'm going to spend time on it soon, but the results were quite promising, so maybe someone else feels like working on this? Would probably be a pretty nice student project or just fun to do.
Google used a game to add keywords to images. Two people (of of them could be a robot) were presented two pictures. The aim is to enter a keyword that best describe the picture and that the other people will choose too. If both people use the same keyword, you gain points :-)
Imagine, you are being shown a picture whose main subject is a monkey, you enter "monkey", the other one "monkey" too. You both earn points. The game host now know that the picture is of a monkey :-D
The "Google Image Labeler", there are (funny and offensive) videos of that online. It is a good idea. Mediawiki does not need a person to check it live, it has users that are reviewing the changes anyway.
It would be nice to have a *simple* way to put people down and have them label images, I could find people if it was really simple. Right now it is not really simple.
Most people just dont have the concentration to read the docs or learn how to use the wiki.
