Japanese Homes and their surroundings[edit]

  • Source to upload from: List of files, List of illustrations with names assigned to each number. It would be really nice if the figures contained their original names in teh uploaded filenames.
    • Do the media URLs follow a pattern?:
    • Does the site have an API?:
      • I assume that Gutenberg has an API. If someone can point me at instructions on how to use it with Commons, I might be able to do this myself; I assume this is a beaten path...
    • What else could ease uploading? (is the site valid XHTML, do they use a WCM…?):
    • Did you contact the site owner?:
      • No, for Gutenberg this seems redundant.
      • I uploaded some manually already, with permission, from another site (names files with pattern https://www.kellscraft.com/JapaneseHomes/JapanHomes001.jpg, to JapanHomes301.jpg, 129-130 are duplicates, figure numbers do not align with file names, so combined illustrations cause no disruption to sequential numbering). The Gutenberg images are in better in many, but not all, cases (higher-res, better scan).
      • The same book is also at [1], but the images seem to be worse.
  • Describe the works to be uploaded in detail (audio files, images by …):
  • Which license tag(s) should be applied?:
    • {{PD-old-70-1923}}
    • note: five years from PD-100
  • Is there a template that could be used on the file description pages? Do you think a special template should be created?
