Discussion

What is ground for bot's decisions? Coordinates? Structured Data? Categories? --EugeneZelenko (talk) 14:25, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

Coordinates yes, Categories yes, Structured Data no. Rudolphous (talk) 15:01, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

• Has there been a Village Pump discussion that established consensus for this? The last one I can recall was pretty controversial, but there may have been a more recent discussion that I missed. Given the scope of this bot run - probably affecting millions of files - there should be clear community consensus. If/when there is such consensus, this bot would be the way to do it.

I think for countries there is a common ground. There are already millions ([5] [6] [7]) of images categorized like this. Rudolphous (talk) 07:13, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

• Could the bot work more fine grain down to state-level (not only country)? APIs like this could resolve it: https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/reverse?format=xml&lat=50.809722&lon=10.893889&accept-language=en --Arnd (talk) 06:23, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Technically the bot can do that. Rudolphous (talk) 07:13, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

• Please summarize the status. Is this ready to run? --Krd 10:47, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
