Bug #: 39053
Summary: New file uploaded should inherit category where upload
was started
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Uploading
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected],

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
My usual workflow: (Starting in the Category: namespace) 1) Search Commons
categories 2) Find the most descriptive category - sometimes there is the only
one, sometimes one has to pick few ones. This case deales with the simplest
case of the only one. 3) Assume one finds the best matching category (or just
created one) 4) I start file upload 5) The current category should at least be
offered to be added to the image. Or even by added by default. Similar
workflow: (Starting in the File: namespace) 1) I find an existing image that
matches my new images perfectly. 2) My new uploaded image should have initially
all the categories the original image had. Some of it might be easier to do
using UploadWizard, but filing under core (it might be possible for the core as
well). Maybe in general uploads should/could inherit catgories of the place
the user is actually in. Might be a very usable thing for mobile uploads -
find similar picture, upload more, next..., next..., next... Quick process
without tedious category search (of course unless the user choses to edit them
by hand)
