           Summary: Warn when filename on shared repo clashes with a local
                    repo file
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.17-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Uploading
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

When you upload an image to Commons, you are not warned when your chosen
filename is already used on a local wiki to host another file. Your upload will
then show the 'wrong' image if you return to that local wiki. This is confusing
behavior

Possible solutions:
1: check 'uselang' and en.wp repo only for a clash
2: eradicated clashes alltogether and outlaw them
3: make hundreds of queries. Due to the many non-shared repositories being fed
by Commons, this is probably very difficult to implement due to performance
issues.
