Written by Sébastien Santoro (Dereckson) and extracted from
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Possible_projects#Build_an_interwiki_notifications_framework_and_implement_it_for_InstantCommons:
"In January 2010, we introduced a setting to ease the possibility to reuse the
Wikimedia Commons content on other MediaWiki installations. This feature is
called “InstantCommons”.
The Wikimedia Commons community performs a continuous maintenance on wiki
files, renaming and deleting media. We currently have tools to detect if the
media are used on Wikimedia projects, and tools to replace automatically the
names following a rename operation.
It would be interesting to allow wikis (and 3rd party software) to notify
Wikimedia Commons they use pictures through a notification API. It would also
be interesting if these wikis can subscribe to notifications, so we can notify
them back we’ve made a destructive operation (e.g. rename or delete a media
file currently in use on their website), so they can automatically or manually
take appropriate measures.
This project is to develop an interwiki notifications framework, ideally also
open to 3rd party sites, and to use it to implement it to enhance the
InstantCommons feature."
