All the images should be categorized at Commons. With about 10.000
images coming in each day that's not really possible for humans to
keep up with. I improved the categorization bots we used the last two
years and it now works on (almost) every country that has unique
identifiers. This is documented at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Monuments_database/Categorization
. Bots can only do so much so please take a look at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Monuments_database/Categorization#How_can_I_help.3F
to see how you can help out.

What is currently the situation with Russia? From what I know there are
no lists, and I am just categorizing images by hands
[http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChangesLinked/Category:Images_from_Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2012_in_Russia],
doing roughly a hundred per day and creating missing categories. The
organizers do not participate in any on-wiki discussions, and do not
disclose any info on their plans, but at some point they declared they
have perfect contact and understanding with the international team. Do
you know whether there are any Russian lists somewhere (except for
Commons and the last year lists on ru.wp) or are they going to be
imminently created? If the work I am doing now is planned to be done by
bot soon I would rather drop it and do smth more useful.
Cheers
