taxonomic tags for Flickr

[Ken-ichi]

Hi all,

I don't know if any of you participate in any Flickr groups that have
taxonomic tagging requirements, but if you do, I wrote a tool to help
add taxonomic tags to Flickr photos based on iNat's taxonomic data.
Check out http://inaturalist.org/taxa/flickr_tagger. I mainly made it
to help add tags for use in the Encyclopedia of Life's Flickr pool
(http://www.flickr.com/groups/encyclopedia_of_life/), so it basically
just generates the machine tags they require. I also wrote a
Greasemonkey script that inserts an "Add taxonomic tags from
iNaturalist.org" link on Flickr photo pages to make it easier to tag
photos: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/46129.

I'm also hoping this will bring in a few more people from Flickr. We
shall see...

Thanks for all the hard work! I'll have to try those out.

Great tool, saves a lot of time! I tried it with several pictures from
flickr and it works great!

My feedback so far --

1. I think it would be useful to make an option of hiding flickr
pictures which have machine tags already
2. Would be nice to have an option to regenerate name of the picture
using vernacular name and scientific name, may be date and time as
well?

Altogether very useful tagging system! Is your coude opensource? I
would like to play with it a little.

Hey dimus,

Sorry about the belated reply. I keep forgetting that we started
approving new group members to keep out spammers. Anyway, thanks for
the great feedback. These are both things I'd like too, so I'll put
them on the list for version 2!

Hi

I'm new to iNaturalist, so this my be user error (probably is user error!), but I can't get the greasemonkey script to work. I downloaded it (from userscripts-mirror.org since userscripts.org is down), and it appears to be active only for http://flickr.com and http://www.flickr.com. When I use Firefox, it will only connect via https://. I considered editing the script, but since I am a naif at iNaturalist, don't normally use Firefox, and a total noobie with greasemonkey, I thought that might not be the best next step.

Any advice?

[Ken-ichi]

I'm sort of amazed Greasmonkey still exists. If it's just protocol
problem I suspect you can fix it pretty easily, but Flickr has
*drastically* changed the markup of their photo pages in the last 6
years, so I suspect you have more work to do than that. The code is at
https://github.com/kueda/inat-taxonomic_flickr_tagger/ if you want to
fiddle with it.

Well, to be honest, I was trying to figure out how to integrate iNaturalist with my Flickr stream, and that posting of yours about the Greasemonkey script was the first thing I stumbled on. I have since found a link to an inaturalist page that seems to fit my needs perfectly, and am happily adding my observations. (I even got one of your curators to add a taxon for a mammalian subspecies that is very rarely observed!). So I don’t need this any more. I also prefer Chrome for a number of reasons.

However, if the script really doesn’t work, perhaps you should try to scrub references to it on iNaturalist.

Thanks so much for creating this site. We all love it.
