Sven Manguard <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #71 from Sven Manguard <[email protected]> 2011-06-01 00:57:08 UTC --- Sorry to bring up ancient history, but I was told this is the bug to do it at. Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28proposals%29#Several_changes_to_file_naming - a proposal I put forth (not knowing about this) to fix certain consistent issues with file naming. Most reliant there are points #2 and #3, as I have been told that the first one is impossible. As it stands, the three points are: 1. Case sensitivity in image names: As it stands, three separate users could upload three separate images of three separate subjects called File:TestImage.jpg, File:TeStImAgE.jpg, and File:Testimage.jpg. There is no reason why file names should be case sensitive. 2. Multiple filetype extensions for the same filetype: As it stands, two separate users could upload two separate images of two separate subjects as File:TestImage.jpg and File:TestImage.jpeg. There is no reason for this. 3. Case sensitivity in filetype extensions: As it stands, and as I have seen at least twice recently, two separate images can be uploaded as File:TestImage.jpg and File:TestImage.JPG. This has the potential to cause even more problems that the above situations. There is no reason why filetype extensions should be case sensitive. If we can handle #2 and #3 that would be wonderful. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
