Hi, It seems you added a lot of wrong images through HarvestTemplates yesterday. Images must depict the subject of the item. You have added instead images that where created by the subject of the item. Please check your edits and revert all that are needed. Thanks.

Indeed the images used in the French Infobox for some artist are RELATED to the artist instead of being picture of the artist

Sorry to say, @Xmlizer, but your mass import of image (P18) made a big mess. Could you please review all of them!?

It's still a thing, my friend. Please review your edits!

I think I was overoptimistic about being able to do a simple import. It looks like I need a full bot instead.

The point is, those very simple edits have already been performed a very long time ago, by people that were very thorough in reviewing them before import (that's what checkboxes are for in HarvestTemplate!!). So by coming lately, at a time where there are very few meaningful additions left, and performing such a reckless mass import, this mess was the only possible outcome. For images, bots are generally not suited for images that they cannot analyze: there are way better tools with integrated human validation, such as WDFist. They may be less massive, but are more valuable. And people using them do an awesome work.

Please review all your additions or mass revert them. And don't use powerful tools before having tested their effect at small scale beforehand (or in demo mode that is available in HarvestTemplate and is very useful to get an idea of the quality of data you can import).

Still not resolved … :/
