Check usage
Par Anthere, dimanche 29 mai 2005 à 08:47 :: Wikipédia
Je signale l'arrivée d'un nouveau petit outil dont je révais :
Il permet de vérifier l'usage d'un document media de Commons, à travers tous les projets wikimedia.
Selon son auteur, Tim Bartel
Wikipedia Check-Usage [1] is a web based tool which can be used to check where commons media is used throughout the wikimedia universe.
Also it is able to find "local" duplicates to commons media.
Check-Usage is strongly inspired by Arnomane's check-usage.sh [2] - a unix shell script doing mostly the same job. Because this script has several preconditions to run, like shell access to a unix/linux system and several programs installed on this machine, I though of writing a small web based interface. After short consideration I decided not to write only an interface calling Arnomane's script, but to re-code it completly. Check-Usage is written in PHP using libcurl.
So if you are interested where 'your' pictures are used - give it a
try.
