             Bug #: 30608
           Summary: Add a gallery style to Special:ListFiles/<USERNAME>,
                    merge code with Special:NewFiles
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.19-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Special pages
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: g.m.haged...@gmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


This enhancement request replaces Bug 28074 - "Add support for transclusion to
Special:NewFiles/<username>"

In bug 28074 the use case of user motivation by enabling an embeddable gallery
of ones own images is discussed. The present situation is: 

* Special:NewFiles has a gallery style and shows newest images first, but can
neither be restricted to a user, nor is it embeddable. 
* Special:ListFiles has a technical tabular style with thumbs, shows newest
images first and is embeddable.

PROPOSAL: 

1. Add the gallery display of NewFiles as an option to ListFiles in a syntax
that can be used during embedding (e.g. Special:NewFiles/Gallery)
2. Add an option how many files are shown in a syntax that can be used during
embedding (e.g. Special:NewFiles/<username>/n=20)
3. Dissolve the present, largely duplicated NewFiles and make it a redirect to
the gallery style of Special:NewFiles

This would close bug 28074 (gallery of user-images can be embedded on user
pages) and probably also bug 14964 (ListFiles provides full functionality of
NewFiles mentioned in that bug, and the toggle Gallery/List would then be
implemented).
