Template:GWToolset abstract

GWToolset (or GLAMWikiToolset) is a Special Page extension. The main goal of the extension is to allow GLAMs the ability to mass upload content ( pictures, videos, and sounds ) to Wikimedia Commons based on respective metadata ( XML ); the intent is to allow for a wide variety of XML schemas. The extension goes about this task by presenting the user with several steps, represented by HTML forms, in order to set-up a batch upload process that will upload content and metadata to the wiki, which creates individual mediafile pages for each item uploaded.

The project, co-funded by Europeana and a few Wikimedia chapters, is under heavy development.
