TASK DESCRIPTION

Misleading error message for add an image value for imcomplete filenames: "File names are not allowed to contain characters like colons or slashes. Only paste the file name after "File:", please."

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Add a statemanent for an image
  2. Enter an incomplete filename, i.e. "Köln Panorama" w/o the file type .jpg

Error message when publishing "File names are not allowed to contain characters like colons or slashes. Only paste the file name after "File:", please."

This is misleading. I suggest to use an error message like "Filename not foud, check for filetype".

Task is based on https://de.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Fragen_zur_Wikipedia&oldid=179079700#Falscher_Hilfetext_bei_WIkidata
