  • Sure, I'll add {{Licensereview}}. Watermark is on every image and I don't want to crop them, because I upload them directly from Fotopolska server to Commons server. Moreover I think sometimes it's better to photoshop watermark instead crop image. I'll try to upload some images today. Yarl 12:02, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • If all images have watermark than {{Watermark}} template should be also added. It does not have to be done at the upload time but it might be good to have a plan to remove those watermarks eventually, as not to add to 11k backlog of images with watermarks we have at the moment. --Jarekt (talk) 12:50, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think the bot should add categories and get as close as it can, but it is better to add city main category than not add categories at all. Such categories often are used as "not yet categorized images from ..." anyway. However there is a bigger problem , see for example File:Wrocław - fotopolska.eu (58087).jpg. The source provides location of the image as "Polska / woj. dolnośląskie / Wrocław / Muchobór Mały / ul. Hiszpańska 12 / Hiszpańska 12" and coordinates as {{location dec|51.10798485657522|16.961064040660858}} while the only description copied to Commons was "Dom nr 12" ("House #12"). The bot needs to be able to capture the whole description and coordinates. --Jarekt (talk) 18:57, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't have full access to database, only output from script made by Fotopolska administrator. However I'll try to talk to him and fill gaps in description. Yarl 19:14, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • You might be able to scrape them from the HTML of the page. For example closer inspection of the source code of the source of File:Lądek-Zdrój - fotopolska.eu (57918).jpg reveals that there are coordinates in the code : "... window.open('/Mapa.php?lat=(50.34610399248642, 16.871690154075622)&zoom=17&maptype=hybrid' ..." which can be copied to {{object location dec|50.34610399248642|16.871690154075622}} and added to the image. The addresses of the buildings can be harvested in a similar way and possibly added to {{Building address}} and added to image description. Hopefully that can be done with the blessing of the site administrators. --Jarekt (talk) 19:28, 17 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I checked new uploads and they look quite good. Few small things: add "other_fields_1 = " in front of {{Building address}} (see example). Current version does not work correctly for all browsers (so I was told), because HTML table format has some issues. I also added parameters "Gmina" and "Powiat" to {{Building address}}, that can be used if Country code is PL. You might be able to use them. Otherwise it looks good to me. --Jarekt (talk) 02:28, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good Yarl, if you will incorporate suggestions by Jarekt, and do another small run, I think we can approve this almost straight away for you. russavia (talk) 10:14, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done, I also fixed all desc. in previous files. I noticed, that some images, eg. this don't have watermark, but it is rather exception. Yarl 22:09, 12 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I look through the new uploads and I can not think of any improvements. --Jarekt (talk) 02:53, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Time to approve? --Jarekt (talk) 18:45, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
