            Bug ID: 50287
           Summary: Restrict local uploads at Meta-Wiki
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
               URL: https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Meta:Babe
                    l&oldid=5609186#Restrict_or_abolish_local_file_uploadi
                    ng_to_Meta-Wiki
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: shellpolicy
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Site requests
          Assignee: [email protected]

As per community discussion linked in the URL field above I request that the
following configuration changes be made:

Please remove the ability perform file uploads to the Autoconfirmed and
Confirmed user groups at meta.wikimedia.org. That is, please remove the
following userrights from those user groups

* 'upload'
* 'reupload'
* 'reupload-own' (this one is on the "User" usergroup)

Please create a new uploader user group with the following rights:

* 'upload'
* 'reupload'
* 'reupload-own'

Administrators and uploaders should be able to continue to upload files, while
regular users not. This is to block the increasing ammount of junk and
copyright violations present in Meta (and reduce the existing ones), while
allowing certain members of chapters and users with legitimate interests to
continue uploading there things which would not belong to Commons' scope. An
EDP is in development.

Thanks for your help.
