Images scenarios
- Favouriting the image > saving to a user-defined collection
- Editing image metadata
- Geolocating the image
- Choosing as a header image
- Removing a falsely associated image from the Images section of a topic, an act that in reality adds more data to image data object, such as the correct related topic. This data could be further user to disambiguate topics.
Foreseeable future interactions:
- Identifying people, places, and date

What is saved of the image with this first click?
- Only the necessary pointers to the original image
- Image url
- It may be wise to save also the image hash to be able to compare with other images on the web.
- or all metadata that the project can map?
When the user enriches data by associating textual data with Wikidata/Wikidocumentaries entities, how is additional data saved?
- Raw and refined values are saved in the same property, one as a qualifier. If the textual comes first, then it must be that as the value, and the linked value as a qualifier.
- Only when the user links a value, values are recorded. This would allow the same structure to be vice-versa, the linked value as the main value, and the original textual value as a qualifier.
- Raw and enriched values are saved in different properties (I cannot imagine why)
- Scenarios of uploading to Wikimedia Commons**
The minimum file info is saved immediately into Wikidocumentaries and uploaded to Wikimedia Commons when the data becomes complete enough
- The file can be automatically saved to Wikimedia Commons, if it meets a certain minimum criteria, for example existing title, description, copyright notice, attribution, year or the lack of it.
The file is immediately saved into Wikimedia Commons at any user interaction
- Commons can accept partially structured data
- It will however have notability policies that are more strict than what Wikidocumentaries allows
- The original image will remain at the original source if the image is removed from Wikimedia Commons.
- The original image can be backed up in Internet Archive to prevent it from disappearing if removed from Commons or the source.
- Synchoronising sources*
- How to deal with varying data of the same image, evolving metadata on any of the platforms, and serving the enhanced data further.
Upload stuff
- Where**
Vue function that can be attached to different parts of the UI as part of another action or in itself - Image actions (image actions menu, image section mass actions, image viewer)
- Save image to a list - Promote image to header picture
- Blacklist an image / disassociate with a topic (image actions menu, image section mass actions) - Use a tool such as geotagging (image actions menu, image viewer) - Modify any parameter in the metadata (image viewer metadata editing section)
- What**
- Invoke OAuth - Check image hash for duplicates - Upload image file - Write original string values to SDC properties that accept string values. Note on source language. - If there are automatically mapped item-values for properties, upload those to respective properties in SDC. (* - Properties in SDC that expect items cannot be imported. They will display as not resolved (red) in the metadata viewer. They need user interaction to be resolved and updated. - The linked Wikimedia user will be noted as the uploader. Generally, the originating GLAM, the distribution platform and the image license can be recorded.
- ) Every user interaction could contribute to a match database on Wikidocumentaries. This data should include the combination of
- the string value - the Wikidata/Wikidocumentaries property - the linked Wikidata/Wikidocumentaries item - enough context, TBD: The originating institution (for example, a certain GLAM uses a character combination to define a certain location. This string is connected with a Wikidata item, but it is only valid in the metadata of this GLAM or their collection.)
