Please don't! Just add the link to Commons, which has a *far* superior upload process, and people around who actually know what's going on. With automatic account creation, users will have a much better experience with this process than in the past, and the Commons community is constantly trying to improve the experience of actually uploading files on Commons -- but those improvements are on Commons, not xxwiki. Really, sending them to Commons is a much better solution. - -Mike -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkuaSZYACgkQst0AR/DaKHvMLACgut8HcRYIb9cCnstPjoq6y3Vg c+kAni3gmzGzsrrxqs289GN4Hxr9WMLY =xg4z -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
