What is going on?[edit]
Multichill is preparing a batch upload (Commons:Batch uploading/Geograph)
We need to tell the bot which categories should go where on commons. So the task is to translate categories from
- http://www.geograph.org.uk/statistics/breakdown.php?by=class&ri=0#sort=Number%A0%A0%u2191
- to the ones we have on commons.
The first one is the name on www.geograph.org.uk so do not change what is in the first 'xxx' brlow - only fix the second one. Please use '_' instead of blanks.
You can also check at Commons:Batch_uploading/Geograph/matches
Minor fixes[edit]
Mostly just because of redirects:
INSERT INTO categories VALUES('Traffic_island', 'Traffic_islands'); is probably ok - our cat is just rather empty... INSERT INTO categories VALUES('Combe_or_coomb', 'Cirques'); ????????????????
Minor problems[edit]
- Combe_or_coomb -> Category:Cirques is wrong, better Category:Valleys of England. The majority of images in this class are of combes of Southern England as in Dorset Devon and Wiltshire. Southern England never suffered glaciation, a few images are of combes in the Lake District (Northern England) which are glacial and are what I would call a corrie or cwm (which we do classify as a cirque) both are interpretations of the Celtic root 'cwm'- meaning valley.
- Clough,_cleuch_or_cleugh -> Category:Streams is wrong, better Category:Valleys of England.It is a Northern English word- the clough is the valley and usually the stream in the bottom is a brook or can be unnamed, so the name of the valley appears on the maps Boggart Hole Clough is one I know.
- Long_Distance_Footpath -> Category:Roads surely Category:Hiking or Category:Trails
- Loch -> Category:Bodies_of_water and Lough -> Category:Lakes are different. This and Lough Foyle is a bay on the Atlantic safer to use Category:Bodies_of_water
- Mansion -> Category:Mansions & # Mansions -> Category:Historic_houses inconsistent
- Peat_hagg -> Category:Peat- probably better in Category:Moorlands
- Railway_(narrow_gauge) -> Category:Miniature_rail_transport is wrong, better Category:Narrow gauge railways. Miniatures are a subcat of Narrow gauge , usually toys. Most narrow gauge railways are industrial in origin.
- Sandbanks -> Category:Beaches but there is a Category:Sandbanks
- I have scanned all the cats at 23:00 Sun 13- and these are all the difficulties I have found- the rest look clean. I have reported them them here for a decision.
You could work on these[edit]
