Deva Victrix

edit

Any reason that (some? all?) imported Geograph pictures of Chester end up in Category:Deva Victrix rather than Category:Chester? The former is intended (I assume) for pictures related to the Roman city (which is very much the minority). Can it be changed so that by default the pictures end up in the normal Chester category? I diffused the Deva Victrix category a while back but it's filling up again. Dave.Dunford (talk) 21:23, 27 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Bdijkstra: Yes, and space was lost. See User:Multichill/Zandbak (permalink) for what it is now. Will take some time to populate. Multichill (talk) 21:40, 8 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
There are categories like category:Files with coordinates missing SDC location of creation (52° N, 0° E) for 0 E - .999 E, but all 0 W - .999 W are at category:Files with coordinates missing SDC location of creation (52° N, 1° W). I think that should be category:Files with coordinates missing SDC location of creation (52° N, 0° W). HenkvD (talk) 15:47, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
@HenkvD: I use floor so it always rounds down. So floor(0.5) = 0 and floor (-0,5) = -1. I agree that some improvement is possible here. For now the main goal was to have some buckets to work on. I'll see if I can improve the logic. Multichill (talk) 20:20, 9 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
The coordinates for these are available, are you planning to copy them into SDC soon? Does this import work really need degree-level categories? Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 19:51, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Mike Peel: the coordinates are already in SDC or will be copied soon.
Category:Files with coordinates missing SDC location of creation is about missing location of creation (P1071). Currently over 18 million files to work on. To add these I use the reverse geocoding at https://edwardbetts.com/geocode/map (the one used by User:GeographBot). For some places we cleaned up the data so we'll get good results, other places quality is still very bad. These subcategories are so the bots can work only on areas where the quality of results is good enough. See also Commons:Reverse geocoding. Multichill (talk) 20:30, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Bot only adds captured with (P4082) sometimes.

edit

The captured with (P4082) property is added for some cameras (Canon EOS 750D (Q19008035) on File:Branta canadensis gosling on grass at Campbell Park 2.jpg, added here) and not for others even when they appear in the EXIF (Google Pixel XL (Q27302807) on File:PSTA bus 824 in Indian Rocks Beach.jpg, edited by the bot here).

Is this because the camera model name doesn't exactly match the entity name or something like that? Is the problem with the entity or with the bot? And is it possible to backfill missing properties once this is fixed? grendel|khan 08:26, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Does the bot use Exif model (P2009) and Exif make (P2010) to do the matching? I noticed that these values weren't set for some of the models which didn't get captured with (P4082) set. grendel|khan 08:23, 24 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Grendelkhan: I had to check my own source code. The lookup table is made at https://github.com/multichill/toollabs/blob/master/bot/commons/own_work_sdoc.py#L398 (link to query). It looks for Exif make (P2010) and Exif model (P2009) which are present on Google Pixel XL (Q27302807) and shows up in the query. I see that you added it and that fixed it. I'll have a bot run over Category:Taken with Google Pixel XL to add the missing camera. If you have more categories, just let me know. Multichill (talk) 11:24, 24 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Ah, I'd been looking for that! Yes, I was experimenting like it was a black box, and I came to the same conclusion. I've fixed a number of missing EXIF properties in Wikidata camera items (using d:Wikidata:Database reports/Constraint violations/P2033#Item_P2009 and d:Wikidata:Database reports/Constraint violations/Mandatory constraints/Violations#Exif_model_(P2009):_Item_Exif_make_(P2010)), so hopefully that will help going forward. I have a few more notes I'll put under the other reply. grendel|khan 03:02, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Grendelkhan: searching for files that have {{Taken with}}, but not captured with (P4082) currently returns 64,674 results. Bot picks up some, but looks like most of them can't be matched.
Not sure if you're planning on working on this, but https://w.wiki/AB7A returns a list of cameras that need attention. Multichill (talk) 16:57, 24 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Note that this includes Canon F-1 (Q63083), which is a film camera and this will never have EXIF tags. https://w.wiki/ABJG is a more restrictive (probably too restrictive) query. (Still trying to learn SPARQL.) Note also that I was using category membership, which runs into issues like this, where the EXIF doesn't match the category. But yes, I intend to fix as much of this as I can. Will the bot go back and add captured with (P4082) to the files where the EXIF make and model are now tied to a camera model? grendel|khan 04:08, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
It's also been noted on d:Property_talk:P2033#Analogue_cameras_should_be_excluded_from_the_exif_rule grendel|khan 08:56, 27 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Also, would it be possible to generate a report of unmatched (make, model) tuples and sort by frequency? It might be nice to figure out the most effective places to start, but I don't think there's a good way to query EXIF data apart from iterating over a huge number of images, is there? (I note that some camera records have a make and model but lack variants, e.g., this situation, which showed up in none of the reports.)
To be clear, I'm looking in the "Taken with" categories for images with intact EXIF data, and copying the strings into Wikidata where appropriate. I don't think this can be automated, since there are instances where the EXIF is clearly for a different camera than the category is. grendel|khan 09:34, 25 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Large category with no EXIF data

edit

I noticed that Category:Photos taken with Kodak DCS 760 has a huge number of photos in it, about 138k, most of which don't have EXIF data. These are dumped en masse from NASA; all but 56 of them are in subcategories of Category:Earth photography from the International Space Station or Category:Earth photography from the Space Shuttle, both of which are under Category:Astronaut photography of Earth. None of them seem to have EXIF data or captured with (P4082) claims.

PetScan query, QS batch, which only does 10k at most. What's the right way to go about this, and is there a generic plan to at least detect photographs with no EXIF data and report them so we can go off category membership? grendel|khan 04:13, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Help fix GFDL with disclaimers on kawiki

Hi! I hope everything is fine by you! I just noticed that your bot have a botflag on kawiki. Per ka:ვიკიპედია:ფორუმი/მრავალენოვანი#Checking_files there are som issues related to files. One of them is that ka:Template:GFDL have disclaimers. So when they upload new files with a dual license the files will have a disclaimer. Could you help change the 460 files from GFDL to GFDL-with-disclaimers and an edit summery something like "The file is licensed with disclaimers. Disclaimers should be avoided per en:Wikipedia:GFDL standardization. If you are the copyright holder please remove the disclaimers."? --MGA73 (talk) 15:56, 17 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

GeographBot adding SDC twice

edit

Hi, looks like GeographBot is currently processing each image twice with SDC e.g. File:Towthorpe Cottages - geograph.org.uk - 6451165.jpg. Can you take a look at it? Thanks! --Nintendofan885T&Cs apply 20:01, 7 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Nintendofan885: thanks for your report. You assumption that it appears to each image seems to be incorrect because in that case we would see three edits for every file, which is not the case. I do see it happen more often. It only retries when the API doesn't return correctly so might be slightly more unstable? Anyway, these files end up in Category:Images from Geograph Britain and Ireland with broken templates and I just removed the cases with duplicate statements. See also Category talk:Images from Geograph Britain and Ireland with broken templates.
I figured this is a general problem and expanded the bot to process the latest dump file. It's cleaning up quite a few files. Multichill (talk) 20:18, 7 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
