Nuno, Thanks for the code. It looked promising, but unfortunately I'm not a programmer and the final product never arrived, and I think we'll have to "go manual" at this point. To convert your system to our minimum requirements, we'd have to take your "single person" system and A. Randomly selec

Hello all, so it's now less than 24 hours for some of the countries until the start of the competition! I am sure that you are all working hard on making the latest adjustments and finishing all the preparations; in order to help you do that, and with a special focus on our international audience,

Hi WSC, there is actually no "international" contest. You only take part in a national contest, or some contests in plural if you happen to have photographed monuments from more than a single country. And if you are lucky enough, your photos will then be nominated by your national jury to the inter

I see the Geograph as a contest in a way that Flickr definitely isn't - many Flickr photos are in private lists aren't they? However if the Guinness Book of records says otherwise, well they are a reliable source and I'm an unreliable one :). As for getting an article on EN wiki, that would depend

Hey, I see that you fixed the names of the cities in Serbia when I click on "Browse by campaign", so, I don't see the question marks anymore (good job!). But, the problem is that only the first 7 characters of a city name are shown. My other suggestion would be that you leave all the names in lati

Re: [Wiki Loves Monuments] Largest contest?

Hi WSC, the official number we are propagating to the media (and also the one we used in our application for the Guinness Book of World Records) is 168,000. This would make Wiki Loves Monuments the biggest photo competition in the world; if we're going to break this number this year (and I am sure

Well last year we got between 160.000 and 170.000. The world record for photo competition with highest amount of pictures was a japanese contest with between 126.521 pictures from 40.784 contestants (can we beat this 40.000 number? Last year we got 5000, so this year 10-15.000 seems realistic)

Processing 100,000 images in a fair and meaningful way is not going to be easy. Doing it with minimal IT won't help. My suggestion is that you try a category based system using hidden categories. Start all 100,000 in a category "Images submitted to WMUS 2012," then allow anyone to review them by c
