Swift is a vitalcomponent of the projects' ability to show images > and other media, and it having so manyopen bugs causes serious ongoing > issues, not only on Commons, but everywhere. > Some of these bugs are high priority, and have been open since 2012. The > community of adminsare straining under the load, and it's not getting any > better now that additional paths into theupload pipeline are becoming > available. > UploadWizard, too, is fundamentally broken. There are a *lot* of open bugs > [1] [2] and the interfaceis in need of design love. > It would be awesome to see these issues addressed in the coming months. In > particular, becauseWiki Loves Monuments will start in September, it would be > great to have these issues fixedon or before August 13th, giving Commons > about two weeks to test the fixes and changesbefore the contest starts, and > plenty of room for backporting urgent fixes. > Regards,Steinsplitter > https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Steinsplitter > > [0] > https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?component=Media%20storage&product=Wikimedia&resolution=---[1] > > https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:PrefixIndex/Commons:Upload_help/Archive[2] > > https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/buglist.cgi?component=UploadWizard&product=MediaWiki%20extensions&resolution=--- > > _______________________________________________ > Wikitech-l mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l ----- End forwarded message ----- -- | Greg Grossmeier GPG: B2FA 27B1 F7EB D327 6B8E | | identi.ca: @greg A18D 1138 8E47 FAC8 1C7D | _______________________________________________ Multimedia mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/multimedia
