<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>One of our GLAMs was working on a small upload of PD photos from their collection. They were planning to do the upload with Pattypan and use creator, language templates etc. to enrich the metadata as much as possible.</div><div><br></div><div>However, these photos were already available on their Flickr account under a PD license with basically the same information about the photos (description was limited anyway). Another user has recently transferred these with Flickr2Commons. So these images are now already on Commons, but their description and other information is not as good as could have been if all available templates etc. had been used.</div><div><br></div><div>This is a first for me. I'm aware that nothing could have been done about the Flickr to Commons transfer except not putting them there in the first place, but clearly the current situation is not in our best interest or that of the GLAM and is certainly not a best practice.</div><div><br></div><div>Any comments on this? What would be a good way to handle this situation?</div><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size:small">Arne Wossink</span><br></div><div dir="ltr"><font size="2"><br></font><div><font size="2">Projectleider / Project Manager Wikimedia Nederland</font></div><div><font size="2"><br></font></div><div><span style="color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:22.4px"><i>(Werkdagen: maandag, dinsdag, donderdag / Office hours: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday)</i></span><font size="2"><br></font></div><div><font size="2"><br></font></div><div><font size="2">Tel. +31 (0)6 11000505</font></div><div><font size="2">E-mail: <a href="mailto:wossink@wikimedia.nl" target="_blank">wossink@wikimedia.nl</a></font></div><div><font size="2"><br></font></div><div><div><font size="2"><i>Post/bezoekadres:</i></font></div><div><font size="2">Mariaplaats 3</font></div><div><font size="2">3511 LH Utrecht</font></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
