Thank you for your contributions so far. Please leave feedback here about this setup (having subpages of the form /New upload form/de, listing translations for many pages' text on a single page, &c.). +sj+


  • I like being able to see at a glance which major languages have contributed and which have not. Not sure how this would work with a longer list of 50 langs. +sj+ 21:36, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Bemerkungen textarea

[edit]

The original form at http://www.ru-info.de/upload_neu.htm has "6. Bemerkungen (remarks or comments?)" textarea, but forms on meta don't have. I think this textarea is useful and new forms should have. What do you think? e-Goat 07:02, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Bemerkungen mean remarks. Just for your information. --Aphaia 17:31, 17 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Discussion?

[edit]

Where's the discussion for the new upload form? This makes nontrivial changes to the structure of uploading, as fair-use images aren't supported directly. It's insane to think that users will stop uploading copyrighted works and slapping 'fair use' on them; removing that option will cause much more confusion as copyrighted images are labeled GFDL.

Oh. Found the 'fair use' option. There should be a note saying that 'other' includes fair use.

Also, what about the specific PD types like PD-USGov? Seems like we'll be losing information here. Grendelkhan 21:04, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Also, there's a category system already in place for licensed images, using tags like {{GFDL}} and the like. The results section of the new upload form should work with and respect that. Grendelkhan 21:06, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
