PauloGuedes

• Source to upload from: Institution:Arquivo Municipal de Lisboa
  • Do the media URLs follow a pattern? yes:

This url generates 94 results pages, each linking to 10 individual image pages. Each image page url is

http://arquivomunicipal2.cm-lisboa.pt/X-arqWeb/ContentPage.aspx?ID=code&Pos=1&Tipo=PCD

while the image in it is at

http://arquivomunicipal2.cm-lisboa.pt/X-arqWeb/ContentDisplay.aspx?ID=code&Pos=1&Tipo=PCD&Thb=0

with code being a 20-digit lower-case hex number — which has no bearing with the official identification references (cota — see below).

• Does the site have an API? dunno

• • What else could ease uploading? (is the site valid XHTML, do they use a WCM…?) consistent, machine-generated HTML (parsable, even if not necessarily valid)
  • Did you contact the site owner? No
• Describe the works to be uploaded in detail (audio files, images by …): Smallish batch (711, according to inventory, or 933, according with the database search report) of scanned b/w photos in various hardcopy formats.

• Which license tag(s) should be applied? {{PD-old}} Creator:Paulo Guedes

• Is there a template that could be used on the file description pages? Do you think a special template should be created? {{AMLx}}; it needs to be fed at least {{{cota}}} (given also as código de referência), a slashed crumbthread-like alphanumeric string of variable length; other values to be (trivially) extracted from each image page are:

• Título
• Assunto
• Data(s)
• Dimensão e suporte
• Nota(s)
• Cotas antigas or Cotas or Cota(s)

The filenames can be constructed from Título (possibly trimmed) and the two last crumbs of {{{cota}}}, in parenthesis, devoided of the slash (which is one of the Cotas)

Never mind. The bunch of imcompetents at CMLarq changed their software and “of course” old urls wont work. As they are also copyfraud goons, the new search functionality throws us back to the 1970s and it’s even less usable. Better visit their facilities in Lisbon (now rehoused in a modern neighbourhood becuae their historic HQ had to be converted into a tourist trap) and fiddle around with a microfilm viewer or some such nonsense. -- Tuválkin ✉ ✇ 22:03, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
