Please upload large number of files server-sided to Wikimedia Commons
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

A few months ago I developed the Dememorixer, a tool that lets you download the full resolution of images presented in the Memorix Maior image viewer. A fair number of Dutch cultural heritage institutions use this viewer to reduce server load. I categorized images that had already been transferred to Wikimedia Commons to Category:Dememorixer.

Now I've prepared for upload the images in this category that had a proper permalink to their source in the meta data.

I was hoping this could be done in one batch using server sided upload.

The zip file with the images can be found at http://veradekok.nl/dememorixer.tar
It's 60 files in total.

The files in the zip file have the same file names as their lower resolution counterpart on Wikimedia Commons.
My username on 'Commons is also 1Veertje

This is the second batch of these, [[T117351]] was the first. I've since worked out how to get the current unique identifiers on RKD.nl when the old ones are given on Wikimedia Commons. I'm fairly sure the remainder will have to be done one by one due to a lack of meta-data so this will be the last of these. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks again.

Can you not upload these in batch yourself? How big are the files?

The files are normal size jpegs. Batch uploading new versions of existing files can't be done in commonist, which is what I usually use, without overwriting the file description.
