It makes for a smoother transition. > > 4) biggest language barrier are categories, which are in English only, we > need to insert name of the category in our mother tongue > It might, just might, become easier when structured data on Commons is done. > > 5) Wikimedia Commons environment is still pretty "techy" > > 6) Insert metadata, takes a long time: > > e.g.: you have an image of a cathedral in Des Moines, IW. 3 or 4 times you > have to insert same information: a) to file name (*Des Moines, > cathedral.jpg*), b) to file description (*en:** Cathedral in Des Moines, > Iowa, USA*/*es:* *La catedral de XY en Des Moines, Iowa, EEUU*) and c) to > the category (*category:Des Moines* or *Churches in Des Moines*, > *category:Cathedrals > in Iowa*). > There is an option in the Uploadwizard to copy exactly those things from the first image to all the others, it is super handy. /Jan [1] https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/id962894692 _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
