MediaWiki Diskussion:Licenses

Using only UploadWizard for uploads

Hello! Sorry for writing in English. It was noted that on this wiki upload is not fully functional for users, who will experience a very difficult and/or illegal uploading. In fact, the licenses/copyright tags dropdown is empty, making it hard or impossible to comply with copyright requirements during upload itself.

Presumably, you don't have interest nor energies to have hundreds templates with the now required HTML, even less a local EDP. I propose to have

• local "Bild lokal ufelade" restricted to the "Ammanne" group (for emergency uploads) and
• the sidebar point to commons:Special:UploadWizard,

so that you can avoid local maintenance and all users can have a functioning, easy upload interface in their own language. All registered users can upload on Commons and existing files will not be affected.

All this will get done around 2014-07-03.

1. If you disagree with the proposal, just remove your wiki from the list. Remember also to create MediaWiki:Licenses locally with any content (see a simple example), or uploads will be soon disabled anyway by MediaWiki itself (starting in version 1.24wmf11).
2. To make the UploadWizard even better, please tell your experience and ideas on commons:Commons:Upload Wizard feedback.

Update to 4.0

Hello! The latest version of Creative Commons is 4.0 and Mehrlizenzdateien does not seem to exist and GFDL is not a good license for media files. So I suggest to update to

**Bild-CC-by/4.0|sälber gmacht, Creative-Commons-Namesnännig-Wytergab unter glyche Bedingige 4.0 (Unported)

It does not affect files allready uploaded. --MGA73 (Diskussion) 17:09, 4. Sep. 2024 (MESZ)

Thanks, I've updated it. --Holder (Diskussion) 05:59, 5. Sep. 2024 (MESZ)
