Thank you for contributing to Wiki Loves Monuments UK 2019!

Hi

Thank you so much for contributing to the UK section of this year's Wiki Loves Monuments contest, which finished yesterday. We really do appreciate the time and effort you've put in to record the UK's built cultural heritage for future generations.

Your contribution has been been added to our collections here on Wikimedia Commons, and is already available for editors to make use of on Wikipedia and elsewhere. It has also been entered into this year's contest. If you'd like to see your own images, just click on the uploads link at the top right of this page (if you don't see it, click on the Log in option first).

We've received over 10,000 UK entries this year, and it will take a few weeks for our volunteers and professional judges to decide on the final top 10. The winners will be announced by the end of this month, both here on Wikimedia Commons and also on the competition website.

The top 10 UK images will go forward to the international section where they will compete against winners from some 50 other countries. The international winners should be announced here in December.

Don't forget, by the way, that if you're hoping to win a prize in the contest it's essential that you have enabled email in your Wikimedia preferences. If you haven't, you're not eligible to win. If you're unsure, please check here.

Once again, many thanks for your help! MichaelMaggs (talk) 15:58, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

•  Oppose Image implies Duracell leak easier than the other. Charles (talk) 12:12, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

 Comment I don't see that interpretation at all (and I think the same allegation could be made no matter which brand was shown). I think instead this image shows the peril of mixing different brands/models of battery together, as the different charge of one causes pressure on the older/smaller battery, increasing the likelihood of a leak. I suppose this explanation ought to be added to the image information, though, to make it clear. --Bobulous (talk) 16:45, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Indeed. I don't see how a scope like "Duracell leak" is valuable at all. If it is, then we would have every brand of battery leaking nominated for VI. pandakekok9 04:01, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

•  Support - Useful. I disagree with Charles about what this photo shows. No-one should logically make the inference he suggests. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:20, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Comments matching technical QI criteria, but Chessington house is pretty much blocked from view --Virtual-Pano 08:36, 2 October 2020 (UTC) The house isn't open to the public, and this view is the only one visible without permission to enter the gate. Plus, I liked the front garden and the way its trees frame the entryway. --Bobulous 16:40, 2 October 2020 (UTC) I think too much on the left is out of focus, but that's my subjective opinion and I would neither support or decline. However the image should be categorized (you categorized the where but not the what), and if you have photographed the entrance to the house (all that's accessible) you should describe it as such. --Trougnouf 14:30, 6 October 2020 (UTC) Category added, description adjusted. --Bobulous 16:07, 11 October 2020 (UTC) Good quality. --Moroder 08:57, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

"campaign203@ISA"

What is the meaning of "campaign203@ISA" in several captions you have recently added? - Jmabel ! talk 00:34, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Jmabel.

I was participating recently in the "Tell Us About Her: Women in architecture" campaign (whose URL ends with the number 203) using the ISA Tool. Possibly the edits have been tagged with "campaign203@ISA" to aid the organisers in studying how effective this campaign has been at getting people to participate using the tool.

But I'm hoping that "campaign203@ISA" has not appeared inside any of the caption text itself. If you've seen this happening in any of my edits, can you point me to them so I can see what's happened?

Bobulous (talk) 16:39, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

I see, it's just in the comment. Normally the comment for adding a caption gives the caption verbatim; I didn't even look and see that in this case it didn't. - Jmabel ! talk 17:59, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

It is only in the comment area and this happens for every edit you make using ISA (any campaign). Anthere (talk) 07:59, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

File:Orazio Gentileschi - Danaë and the Shower of Gold - 2016.6 - J. Paul Getty Museum.jpg

I undid your edits on this image. You removed the correct painting and added the wrong one. Multichill (talk) 18:36, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Thank you, @Multichill.

I remember adjusting the "Depicts" items for that image, and I remember that it made sense at the time. But looking at the two images and the existing "Depicts" entries, I now can't work out what I saw that caused me to adjust them. (On this subject, should the holding museum be mentioned in the Wikidata "Description" to make it harder to confuse two so similar items?) Bobulous (talk) 21:03, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

That's quite common. I updated Danaë (Q22329907): painting by Orazio Gentileschi (J. Paul Getty Museum) & Danaë (Q29053312): painting by Orazio Gentileschi (Cleveland Museum of Art).

Good example of this is Bedroom in Arles (Q18543956): painting by Vincent van Gogh in the musée d'Orsay, Paris, Bedroom in Arles (Q18713070): painting by Vincent van Gogh located in the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam & Bedroom in Arles (Q18713076): painting by Vincent van Gogh in the Art Institute of Chicago.

We deeply appreciate your feedback, since it will help us determine the next steps of the project.

Please sign-up to indicate interest, test the tool, and simply provide feedback in the talk page.

ISA Tool Workshop - Dec 12th 2022

Greetings.

We released a few weeks ago a new version of the ISA tool on the Test Server. The new version propose semi-automatic tagging of images, which seeks to assist community in identifying and labelling depicts statements for Commons files.

Now we are looking for feedback with regards to

• the look, feel, and usability of the tool with the machine vision / metadata-to-concept enhancements in place.
• and most importantly, the quality of the recommandations provided.

This is why we are organizing an online workshop on Monday 12th of December, 16h-17h30 UTC+1 (on zoom). We will be very happy if you find the time to join us.
