(Stating the obvious) Create a wikimedia account
Select 5 tot 10 images or files you created yourself that you would like to upload to Wikimedia Commons. See this cartoon for an idea what sort of material you can use (copyright wise). Also, check out the related tasks of this workhop for batches to work on.
Please install pattypan (free Java download).
Please install the latest version of java (Pattypan will give you a link upon installation if you do not have Java yet)
Please make sure you have Libre Office calc or Microsoft Excel (in case you do not have it)

In this workshop we are going to take a look at Pattypan, a tool for mass uploading images to Wikimedia Commons. It is a Java application and makes use of a spreadsheet and allows for a high amount of flexibility when proper, detailed image descriptions are important for the images' reuse on Wikimedia projects, for example when you work at a cultural heritage institution.

We will look at Pattypan from a newbie perspective, and address the following topics:

Wikimedia Commons
metadata on Wikimedia Commons (templates)
copyright on Wikimedia Commons (& copyright templates)
uploading with Pattypan: step-by-step demonstration

After this workshop, you will be able to start working on one of the Pattypan-related work sessions that are on Phabricator (and that are assigned to this tasks as related tasks).
