           Summary: uploading file to local wiki when file exists on
                    shared repository (commons) gives spurious info in the
                    warning message
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: wikimedia-deployment
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Images and files
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected]


If a filename exists on commons, and a non-admin (ie without the
(reupload-shared) right) tries to upload to the same name on enwiki, it
displays;

Upload warning

A file with this name exists at the Wikimedia Commons. You can:

* go back and upload this file to Wikipedia using a different name.

* upload it to Commons, if your intent is to replace the image that already
exists with a better version.

File:$1

      $1

...ie literally, "$1" instead of, presumably, showing the file.

I've also documented this issue on the enwiki page where this problem came up;

(It'd be nice if, when fixed, someone could append a little note there)
