             Bug #: 30607
           Summary: Add checkbox-filter to SpecialListFiles for showing
                    "original uploads"
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Images and files
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org

(Split out of bug 30522)

This checkbox would be enabled by default. It results in the inclusion of
uploads of which the user is the first uploader. (of which the user is likely
the creator/finder).

Possible issues (technically):
* Not sure of a selection of the first uploader to a file is indexed. Assuming
it's not, is it effeciently indexable ?
* The first (public) uploader is variable. After a later version is uploaded,
an earlier version could be hidden or deleted to filearchive.

Possible issues (practically):
* Phrasing of this may imply that first/original uploader is the author. This
is not the case per se. We may not want to create this checkbox and instead
wait for File-metadata/license-information intergration project to be executed
at which point files can be listed truly by author id.
