Structured Image Annotations
Overview
166,644 files on Commons have ImageNote templates, therefore at least 1 image annotation. Because there are relatively few of these plain text annotations, existing annotations can most likely be left alone. We’d like to make image annotations structured: instead of plain text, we will have “depicts’ annotations.
