Add Taiwan in Chinese to the monuments database
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

It appears that Taiwan will also take part in Wiki Loves Monuments 2013, so it needs to be added to the monuments database.

Not sure how the lists situation looks like at the moment; there are some zh.wikipedia pages linked from the site in the URL field, but they are based on those awful wikitables at the moment and will need to be changed into the Proper Format[TM].

For languages, it seems that Standard Chinese is the sole official language of Taiwan, so the lists will probably be published on zh.wikipedia (can I say 'Chinese', please?).

For a list of ISO 3166-2 codes for Taiwan, go to [1] — note that there might be some problems with those special municipalities that don't have codes assigned to them (yet).

We already have a lot of sources in the monuments database (see
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Monuments_database/Statistics). This
is a tracker bug to keep track of what more to add. Bugs should contain the
source wikipedia language and the country (or region).

Useful information to include:

  • project -wikipedia
  • lang - language code of the Wikipedia
  • headerTemplate - the name of the header template
  • rowTemplate - the name of the row template
  • commonsTemplate - template to track images at Commons
  • commonsTrackerCategory - the tracker category at Commons (blala with known

IDs)

  • commonsCategoryBase - the base of the category tree at Commons for all images
  • autoGeocode - To automagicly geocode the images at Commons (be careful1)
  • unusedImagesPage - Page to put the list of unused images.
  • imagesWithoutIdPage - Page to put the list of images without an id.
  • registrantUrlBase - The url which can be combined with the id to get more

info

  • namespaces - What namespaces are the lists in (0, please!)
  • table - The name of the table, convention monuments_<country>_(<lang>)
  • truncate - False if you don't have a real primkey
  • primkey - What is the primkey? Can be one or more fields. Should be unique,

strong etc.

Looks like some lists are available, but not in template based format.

The links are all listed on https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2013_in_Taiwan/en/List . The Unique Identifier is hidden in the reference URL, and can be found that way (caseID). Lists are per subdivision.

We're playing with the templates on https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Supaplex/TW_test - Dennis seems to be doing fine, and I expect we will have the templates ready in a few days.

Ready for import! The name of the template and the namespace of the lists might change still, hopefully soon.

Useful information to include:

  • project -wikipedia
  • lang -zh
  • headerTemplate - User:Supaplex/TW_header
  • rowTemplate - Supaplex/TW_row
  • commonsTemplate - template to track images at Commons
  • commonsTrackerCategory - the tracker category at Commons (blala with known

IDs)

  • commonsCategoryBase - the base of the category tree at Commons for all images
  • autoGeocode - To automagicly geocode the images at Commons (be careful1)
  • unusedImagesPage - Page to put the list of unused images.
  • imagesWithoutIdPage - Page to put the list of images without an id.
  • registrantUrlBase - The url which can be combined with the id to get more

  • namespaces - What namespaces are the lists in (0, please!)
  • table - The name of the table, convention monuments_<country>_(<lang>)
  • truncate - False if you don't have a real primkey

Request has been idle for over 1 year, closing per the conclusions of the monuments meetup [1] at the Wikimedia Hackathon. You can reopen it if this import is still required.
