Is there a chance that http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/opencollection/labs/whereinthewiki.php can be updated anytime soon?
Thanks!

Contemporary works still fall under copyright, so those are not being cross-posted.

Like mine:

What happens to them? Are they getting photographed and added to the collection?

You should contact one of the wikimedians I mentioned in the post – they should be able to help you. As for the bot, yes, we wrote it specifically for us. I don’t know of others, but I think the wiki folks could help with that as well.

Would this scenario work for the Brooklyn Museum’s image collection? I’ve found the most time consuming part of the Wikimedia upload process is the assignment of categories. I assume your bot was written specifically for your project. Do you know of any bot software available to the public that could be used for batch uploading to Wikimedia?
