[josm-dev] Uploading Presets to the JOSM wiki

2012-10-09 Thread Kate Chapman
Hi All,

Sorry if this isn't really a dev question. We have a preset we want to
add here: http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Presets/

The issue is the preset we made has a lot of items and URL links.
Basically each item links to the appropriate wikipage with a
description. This is getting caught in the spam filter.

Is there a way to add the page? Do we just need an account? I tried to
create an account, but the captcha didn't appear and my attempt to
make an account also go stopped as spam.

Thanks,

-Kate

Files attached to Presets page get deleted anyway. Please read the
instructions

http://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Presets#Createnewpresets

more carefully.

Either you add a link to a remote hosted file or you create a subpage of
Presets and host the preset there. When making a wiki page, there are some
ways to circumvent the spam check, the two most important:
a) login and fill captcha (gains 30 points)
b) Split the edit into multiple (reduced the impact of external links)

You created an account named "wonderchook"! There is currently no
indication of successful account except the "enter password now".
