           Summary: Description page sometimes not created during upload
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW

Splitting off from bug 32551.

Occasionally an upload succeeds without a description page being created.

Its unclear what circumstances this happens. Possibly an error connecting to
externalstorage causes an exception to be thrown, or something of that nature.

There is a list at
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ilmari_Karonen/Queries/Zombie_images

As of this writing, some examples: [[File:Jersey, Corbiere Lighthouse by
moonlight, Channel Islands-LCCN2002696513.tif]], [[File:Palais de Justice and
bridge to exchange, Paris, France-LCCN2001698506.jpg]]


[[File:Château du Martinet - façade nord.JPG]] is missing log entries, but the
page is fine.

Most of the examples seem to be from gwtoolset. I expect that to just be
coincidence though


(I'm going to consider bug 32551 to be about the referential integrity issues
where people couldn't create the pages due to missing revisions, and this to be
about the larger issue where sometimes pages aren't created)
