Bug #: 28731
Summary: mw.FlickrChecker.js
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: UploadWizard
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
1. FlickrChecker should not expose the Flickr API key in the source.
2. It should also be able to handle static.flickr.com URLs.
3. I didn't check when exactly this is called. But note that if you extract the
id from the URL, you may get back license information even for malformed URLs.
Example: consider the URl http://www.flickr.com/photos/27302612@N03/3087959051
pointing to Marc Benton's CC-BY-NC-SA photo of Randy Orton. Now consider that
the user just typed http://www.flickr.com/photos/27302612@N03/30879590, leaving
off the last two digits. The URL as a whole is invalid, but unfortunately,
30879590 is also a valid Flickr photo ID, but for a completely different photo
by a different user, namely Ben Sutherland's CC-BY photo at
http://www.flickr.com/photos/bensutherland/30879590/
4. If you're already getting the license from Flickr, you could also
automatically get the author, description, geolocation, and the file at the
largest available resolution.
5. If you want, I could provide the Flinfo PHP sources, where we've already
dealt with all that stuff. (And which also can deal with ipernity and
panoramio).
