             Bug #: 36497
           Summary: Hiding file upload log entry should also hide the
                    contents of the "Summary" box on file pages
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Revision deletion
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


The default behaviour of many of our upload tools, scripts, and the
UploadWizard is to insert the data from the upload process into the upload log
description entry -- for example, see a random file uploaded with UploadWizard
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=File%3AWiki+Loves+Monuments+2011+calendar+%28design+file%29.pdf>.

However, hiding the upload log entry containing inappropriate information does
not completely remove the data from the wiki, for it is still visible in the
"Summary" box visible on the file description page -- in this example, here
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2011_calendar_%28design_file%29.pdf#filehistory>.

To remove the data from the box, one needs to re-upload a file again, and
suppress the edit summary -- please have a look at a real life example at
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:DuchyofFlorence1548.png>.

As both the edit summary and the upload log entry contain the very same data,
it would be nice to have the ability to hide the edit summary while hiding the
upload entry log (and the other way round).
