Hi all,
We're excited to announce that we've rolled out several updates and bugfixes for the Commons Android app[1] over the past couple of months. Some of the major ones include:
- Automatic addition of geocoding template if uploaded image is geotagged - Category suggestions based on the title entered for the image - New, more detailed tutorial to educate new contributors on what types of images should or should not be uploaded (special thanks to Pine for sharing his Commons educational script which was used as the basis for this) - Check for whether or not the file already exists on Commons, to prevent upload of duplicates
Additionally, the kind folks at translatewiki.net are helping us set up a translation project for our app, so hopefully localization should improve in the near future.
Thank you all for your support and encouragement thus far! Feedback, bug reports, and suggestions are always welcome on our GitHub page[2]. :)
