A proposal has been discussed and adopted at English Wikibooks to change the
value of $wgUploadNavigationUrl in LocalSettings.php to
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload in order to direct image
uploads to Commons instead. This is to avoid image conflicts and ease
administration on English Wikibooks. CommonsHelper will be used to migrate
existing images that have compatible licenses to Commons.
Local image uploading will be limited to fair use images not permitted at
Commons. To facilitate the uploading of those images by selected persons other
than administrators, it is requested that an "uploader" right be created that
can be granted in a fashion similar to "rollbacker".
