[Wiki Loves Monuments] Tool for WLM local contests stats

2019-09-03 Thread Ferdinando Traversa
Hi, in Italy we have some regional contests so, because they can’t be added to WLM global stats, I created a tool to collect stats about WLM regional contests and other special contests. It’s based on Commons categories (so it can be used for almost everything). Jean-Frèderic, the WLM stats

This sounds fantastic. Is there a foolproof way to do this for those of us with no knowledge of SQL? :) I've changed the categories to WLM in Malta, as appropriate. Is there anything else I need to change? Neville On Tue, 3 Sep 2019 at 17:53, Michael Maggs wrote: > This was really useful

Hi Neville, If you use OpenRefine you can run a reconciliation with the already existing items in Wikidata, and only work the new monuments and create them in Wikidata (always use Quick Statements for that, though, not the native OpenRefine thing, as it has a tendency to log you out and place the

Hi Paulo, I don't want to derail the discussion, but does this also apply when you want to add monuments to your existing list? We've just received a list of protected monuments that we want to add to our current list of monuments (there might be overlaps between the two, so we'd have to filter

Hi Olaniyan Olushola, You can easily export them to Wikidata, using OpenRefine, and use them to generate the monument lists via Listeria in Wikipedia. If you manage to get the coordinates, and feed them to Wikidata too, you can then use https://maps.wikilovesmonuments.org/map?c=8.8959:8.5474:6=1
