Hello @AmitGuha. Rows 469 and 470 has no Creator. Should it be assumed to be George Michell or be left blank? -- DaxServer (talk) 09:48, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Are the GPS coordinates: of the building or of the photographer? -- DaxServer (talk) 10:31, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would you be able to provide some Wikimedia Commons categories for the files?

By default, they'd added to Category:George Michell and Category:Centre for Studies in Social Sciences -- DaxServer (talk) 10:42, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is Commons:Batch uploading/George Michell Bengal Temples request a duplicate? -- DaxServer (talk) 11:08, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are quite some discrepancies in the Sheets compared to the Drive. Please refine them, it's becoming harder for me to validate -- DaxServer (talk) 14:40, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks @DaxServer for the comments above.

1. I will fix all of the missing creator and discrepancies on sheets vs drive and respond here.

2. Yes, I will provide additional Wikimedia Commons categories

I have found some other errors as well. I will need a couple of weeks to fix this and will respond and tag you here when I'm done.

On the other questions:

1. The GPS coordinates are of the buildings

2. Commons:Batch uploading/George Michell Bengal Temples is a duplicate and can be removed

Thanks again! AmitGuha (talk) 21:51, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
