Hi everyone,
I just added England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales to the
monuments database. For technical details see
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49047#c3
Some issues I came across:
* Every country has a system to go down the tree like world -> <country>
-> <province> -> <municipality>. We use ISO 3166-2 for that
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-2:GB). Currently we don't have
that for the UK. Would be nice to add
* List contain nested templates; I prefer not to have them (always
source of bugs and problems)
* Missing categories on Commons; The category tree under
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Listed_buildings_in_the_United_Kingdom
seems incomplete. You want to have that done before September. I'd
rather not have the double intersected categories like
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Grade_B%2B_listed_buildings_in_County_Down
because that actually makes it harder to locate images. I'll leave it up
to you.
* Missing commons category links; Once you've created the missing
categories you should add Commons category links from the lists. This is
used by the bot to automatically categorize all the newly uploaded images.
* Scotland seems to have two templates;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:HS_listed_building_header#Duplicate?
* Some pages you should add to your watchlist for September:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_images_of_listed_buildings_in_England
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_images_of_listed_buildings_in_Northern_Ireland
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_images_of_listed_buildings_in_Scotland
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Historic_sites/Unused_images_of_listed_buildings_in_Wales
* Cardiff seems to have it's own redundant template at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cardiff_listed_building_row .
This is not harvested right now, should use the standard one
