@demon will present as release manager for 1.25
Nothing special needed

@TheDJ
my computer, since it's not deployed anywhere else

Flickr upload in UploadWizard - T100062 ✓
Refactoring validation of Flickr licenses to the backend in preparation for more refactoring on the frontend and eventually turning Flickr imports on for every user on Commons.

Wikipedia on Apple Watch - T97778 ✓

@Jason.ji, @Fjalapeno, and @Vibhabamba
https://github.com/coreyfloyd/apps-ios-wikipedia/tree/hackathon/apple-watch
Due to the unique constraints of demoing a watch application to a room of 100 people, we will create a video of the app, upload it to YouTube, and play the video during the showcase.
http://youtu.be/8TTXMO5BZbs or flash drive (back-up)

Generate SPARQL queries from natural language questions - FIXME: TNNNNN ✓
Querying Wikidata using SPARQL is very powerful but it is hard to create complex queries. We developed a tool which creates SPARQL queries based on questions in natrual language.
https://tools.wmflabs.org/ppp-sparql/
@Tpt and @Bene
Just show the url :-)

Surface Image Content Gap - T100088 ✓
This project aims at writting a tool that crawls wikipedia article categories in order to find article without images and sort them by decreasing number of views (i.e. the first results are the articles that are read more)
code: https://github.com/Commonists/SurfaceImageContentGap and exemple of result: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:PierreSelim/RugbySTReport
@PierreSelim
Won't be able to demo due to early flight back.

Citations and usage of of DOIs in Wikipedia - FIXME TNNNNN ✓
DOIs are identifiers for scholarly articles, e.g. http://dx.doi.org/10.5555/12345678. Two projects: one to gather a live stream of edits to Wikipedia that contain citation information. The other looks at the referral logs to see how many people click on DOI links from Wikipedia.

@Afandian - Joe Wass

Visual categories

Creating visual galeries for meta-categories such as "Paintings by Vincent van Gogh by museum" ; each museum will have a dedicated gallery, with a picture per artwork, assuming each artwork as its own category
Result visible at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Donna_Nobot/Test/Sub2
Quick improvement is adding the museum name as a gallery title
Compute the "best" picture in each arwork category. "Best" picture takes into account Google Art Project pictures and VI/FP/QI. Size/Weight/Dimension not useful since there are lot of "heavy" pictures that are either photos of reproduction in books or photos taken in the museum with low light. I chose NOT TO take into account usage on Wikimedia projects since usually it is the first picture uploaded and not the best and that an extension of this tool can be automatically updating pictures including when a better is found. If you have any idea on how to define what is a "best" picture please tell me :)
Working on a friendly UI, currently the tool works in command line
