Hi all,
I've been working on a project to improve the categorization of
pictures in the Upload to Commons Android app
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T115101> as part of the Outreachy
Dec '15 program, which is soon drawing to an end. To summarize, 3 new
features have been implemented in this app:

1. If a picture with geolocation is uploaded, nearby category
suggestions are offered (based on the categories of other Commons
images with similar coordinates)

2. If a picture with no geolocation is uploaded, nearby category
suggestions are offered based on the user's current location. This is
optional and only works if enabled in Settings.

3. Category search (when typing in the search field) has been made
more flexible, whereas previously this was done solely by prefix
search. E.g. now searching for 'latte' should be able to return 'iced
latte'.

The latest version of the app is v1.11 and can be downloaded at
<https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.free.nrw.commons>.
Please feel free to leave feedback or bug reports at
<https://github.com/nicolas-raoul/apps-android-commons/issues>.

I have had an amazing time working on this app as part of the
Outreachy program, and I greatly appreciate all the support and help
that the WMF community has given me. :)


Cheers!

Josephine
