Bug #: 31292
Summary: Make Category permanently visible, not obscured behind
a "more options" link
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: UploadWizard
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
There is no hint about if it's required or not to add a category in the wizard.
If it's skipped (or simply missed by the user since it is obscured behind a
"more options" link in most languages where the translation is not changed
already) the wizard is complaining about the missing category by adding an ugly
error message to the file description page. So it IS required to add a
category?
I (and many other users, as seen on the feedback page) request multiple
changes:
1. Change the text "more options" to "add categories and additional
information" in ALL languages.
2. Make the category input permanently visible. This very simple change will
solve the problem for all the users that simply missed it (that's what this bug
report is about).
3. Make the upload wizard NOT drop what the user entered in the category input
field when he presses Next without pressing Add first (that's reported as bug
#28850).
4. Make it a required field or add at least a warning message if the user added
no categories.
5. Remove the ugly error message thats currently added to the file description
pages.
