Bug ID: 71704
Summary: trim trailing dots/whitespace in filename
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: UploadWizard

It happens that users enter a filename ending with a dot (e.g.
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Der_Extra-Fuss_bei_Rubens..jpg) and the
Upload Wizard adds the extension (e.g. .jpg) with jet another dot. This will
end up in file names containing two consecutive dots (e.g.
Der_Extra-Fuss_bei_Rubens..jpg). As this does not make much sense, and is not
intended (as I assume), the UW should trim trailing dots before appending the
extension.
Same for trailing whitespaces in filenames. I do not find an example right now,
but it is in my mind that I have seen filenames differing only in a space
before the extension, like 'x.jpg' and 'x .jpg'. Which is quite ugly. Can you
please check if that is still the case.
