Bug #: 32788
Summary: $wgAllowCopyUploads should have an option to link to
the source url to the description
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Uploading
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: wikipediad...@googlemail.com
CC: bryan.tongm...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
$wgAllowCopyUploads currently sideloads the file with no reference to the
source page unless one is entered into the description manually. A link to
source would be very useful and should probably be default on, as it was
expected - and has also been mentioned on the Manual talk for the option, so
I'm not the only one; though I can imagine where one might not want to link
back to the source in some cases. The first time I used this, I was quite
surprised that it didn't give me a way to get back to the source image.
It would be particularly nice if it could check for a parameter |source= and
append the url there if it exists.
