University of Washington Digital Collections

The same algorithm applied to Commons:Batch uploading/Freshwater and Marine Image Bank can be used on multiple collections of the UW collections. I'll list some here with the reason of why the images would be PD.

• Albert Henry Barnes collection 302 files. It's {{PD-old-auto}} since the author died in 1920 according to this
• Alaska Youkon Pacific 1311 might contain some of Category:Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition {{PD-US-expired}}
• William F. Boyd All images are before 1923 according to this so {{PD-US-expired}}
• Boyd and Braas photographs all before the 20th century
• Childrens books most are PD since they were released before 20th century.
• John N. Cobb died in 1930 so {{PD-old-auto}}.

There are many more that could be checked.--Diaa abdelmoneim (talk) 17:54, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

All the images I've uploaded so far are going into one of the subcategories of Category:Photographs by University of Washington Libraries Digital Collections. BMacZero (talk) 05:47, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

As I've discovered, there are a lot of errors in the descriptions (and some in the titles). When you identify an error, it can be reported to UW LIBRARIES MSCUA <photosuw.edu> and, in my experience, there's a pretty good chance that they will correct their data. - Jmabel ! talk 08:58, 6 December 2018 (UTC)

I've made a webpage to track my bot's progress on each collection (in real-time and also historically). If that's useful to anyone, you can see it here. BMacZero (talk) 06:10, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
