Re: [Wikimediach-l] Swiss image of the day
I wonder if such a model would work: * A group of volunteers selects images from Wikimedia Commons and uses a wiki to sort and rank them and finally create the list of images on a particular page. This page can hold already images parked for future publication - like we plan a few weeks in advance, so we only have to do the whole selection process maybe four times a year. This may be a designated area in the members wiki, which includes the Commons files. * A script regularly reads this wiki page and determines which is now the current image of the day. It adds it to a RSS feed which holds the last n images of the day in descending order. This may be run as a cron job on the WMCH server, I am happy to set up some script (I already have done both PHP / MediaWiki API and RSS scripts) or just provide shell access to someone who manages this script. * Everyone else can then use the RSS feed to get the image of the day on their website, upload it to Tumblr, whatever, send a tweet, post it on facebook... (the latter two things can easily be done with http://twitterfeed.com/ which automatically posts from RSS to Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn). The Wikipedia Article of the Day of de:wp is also published through RSS.

Re: [Wikimediach-l] Swiss image of the day
Only one suggestion. Please consider as central entry point Commons because it's unrelated to the language and easier to use (people already have an account). In addition the publication in social networks may help to widespread the page of Wikimedia Ch projects in Commons and attract more people interested to evaluate and to select.

An interesting idea. How is this done currently for the wp:de image of the day? And which public repository would then used for all the scripts used?

Hi, This project is now almost ready to be launched, here are a few precisions: * Purpose is to offer more visibility to Swiss GLAMs and swiss heritage. * Swiss GLAM pictures will fill this picture of the day stream * The idea is to advert one picture with a small story around (a few sentences) * Make it as much as possible a multilingual experience. * Work will be done on Commons, but we want to spread the information on Twitter, Facebook and local Wikipedias. Tumblr is a good idea too, if someone wants to keep it synced. * Micha and me will start the process with ~2 pictures a week, but this wants to be a community project.

Re: [Wikimediach-l] Swiss image of the day
A Tumblr is a very good idea - we can plan posts long in advance, and it's an easy retweet for everyone (starting with @WikimediaCH). As for dates, I would expect a slant towards summer months, so maybe as a start we can go with a seasonal approach.

Or may be something simpler in order to invite people to participate and to share the link of the projects like a simple vote in this page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wikimedia_CH Personally I think that a twit or a facebook post may be volatile. A page may be a good initiative also to give a fix point of contact. Regards On Tue, Feb 18, 2014 at 5:12 PM, Ludovic Péron ludovic.pe...@gmail.comwrote: Hi, Few weeks ago, I had a similar idea.
