They were rare and we had a simple system for tagging them for a bot to rotate. Now all the bets are off, since most images in need of rotation only need the deletion of the EXIF tag. I have uploaded yesterday a dozen of images which show just fine on my windows machine and 25% of them show up on Commons rotated. At present I do not have any tools on my PC that follow EXIF tags so it is hard to find such images beforehand. I am uploading images for years and for time being they all look fine, but I expect that large fraction of them will self-rotate if re-rendered. I think this extension is a cure to non-existing illness and the side-effects of the cure messing up much more files than are helping. I think we should revert it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
