In Spain we have to deal with different identifiers, national or regional. Some 
examples:
* RI-51-0000642 is a national identifier
* 1-INM-HUE-004-035-004 is a regional identifier for Aragon, but its format 
don't match any other register
* 8749 is an ambigous identifier, so we have added a prefix for its register: 
IPA-8749 (IPA is the local register for Catalonia)
This way we can use an unique template for Spanish monuments and an unique 
UploadWizard campaign.

Another approach has been used in Germany that other fellows can explain 
better. I think they used different templates and campaigns for each state.

Subject: [Wiki Loves Monuments] Questions about lists and db

Dear WLM list, 
we are preparing the db for the list of monuments, 
and we'd like to know how you faced the issue of generating an unique identifier
when you had to do that (because the official list didn't have it). 


- is it useful (for some reason) to generate a "meaningful", "well-constructed" 
identifier (which can be resolved by a particular algorythm?)

Did some of you have to add additional attributes to the db, beside, the ones 
descripted here?

And a final question, 


how the final pictures will correlate with the monuments? Will it be done 
automatically by the Upload Wizard?

Thank you for your help!

Aubrey
