A collection of scripts and data connected to the 2022-2023 project 100 000 Bildminnen. A project done together with, and with funding from, Nordiska museet.
Not included in this repo is commons-diff, the tool developed for extracting changes to file pages on Wikimedia Commons in support of roundtripping. This tool is instead provided in its own repo where it has been developed with an aim to be useful beyond this project.
For the uploaded images see Commons:Nordiska museet/100 000 Bildminnen.
The final report for the project can be found at 100 000 Bildminnen - Slutrapport.pdf.
The repo is structured so that each script lives in a different directory. The directory contains the code of the script as well as a requirements.txt file to be installed via pip.
The directory may also contain a output_data subdirectory containing the final outputs from this scripts when run right after the end of the project. If this subdirectory exists it will also contain an _inputs.md file documenting the inputs used to produce each output.
Below is a very brief description of each script.
- mediaviews: Get all media-views/mediarequests for files in a Commons category during a provided time span.
- wp_captions: Get all images in a Commons category and for each get all global usages and associated captions.
- deriv_detector: Attempt to identify derivative files by analysing which other files link to files in a Commons category.
- file_count: Show the growth of a Commons category of files by analysing the upload dates of its category.
- diff_stats: Extract some statistics from the commons-diff output files. The
output_datadirectory also contains the final commons-diff output.
While many of the scripts have been generalised to be of use outside the context of this project they are primarilly provided here for convenience and documentation purposes. They are unlikely to be maintained and further development may take place in other repos.
