Hi everyone, This is an update to my GSoC project that I will be working on with Ryan Kaldari as my mentor. My project aims at integrating Flickr in Upload Wizard extension in which the user would be able to transfer images from Flickr where the UploadWizard extracts license and metadata from the images, converts the license into a Commons License Template and passes on metadata to the next step to generate corresponding WikiText. Also I would be improving the current Geolocation support in Wikimedia by providing a map interface. The user would be able to tag the location of the image using the interface, which would then be converted into appropriate Geolocation template and added to the wikitext of the media uploaded.

With the discussion with my mentor, I would be rolling out a minimal demo with the Flickr integration soon, starting from 21st of this month when the official coding period starts. I have already laid down the design mockups for the integration of flickr in my notes [1] as written in my proposal [2]. I have also been writing my thoughts, notes, mockups, diagrams and updates related to my project in one of my user pages [1]. I would appreciate any feedback, suggestion or comment regarding my project.
