Update on error numbers:

111 errors since we pushed the fix on Tuesday 2pm to avoid anonymous token
problems.

Things are looking much better and come under 3 types of error
Here is the new breakdown

1) Errors due to bad filenames / bad filetypes

Missing filename: Bad filename 67
> This is now the biggest cause of errors. I suggest we log the file names
users are trying to upload with to identify what is going wrong. A bug is
open https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49544

There are various other errors which are probably not worth our time as
they suggest vandal edits:

This file did not pass file verification 4
Unknown error: "titleblacklist-forbidden-edit" 5
Unknown error: "titleblacklist-custom-filename" 1
Missing filename: Filename exists 1
Missing filename: Duplicate archive 1
Filetype not permitted: MOV 1

2) Errors due to tokens


Bad token name. 15

meta.m.wikimedia.org
> 5 of them were on the uploads page
Investigating with Chris it seems this can happen when a user has logged in
on mobile, left the page for some time and thus their login has expired.
Requesting a central auth token without being logged in will cause this
error. We should explore checking login status before starting the upload
workflow and redirect the user to the login page.

Invalid token 5
> We are caching tokens that have since expired. We should explore
invalidating tokens.

3) Other errors
These bugs are all pretty mysterious and it's not clear what causes them

* The modification you tried to make was aborted by an extension hook 7
* error: 3
> Note This occurs when an error happens but the error is missing an 'info'
property.
e.g. the response is:
{ error: {} }

An internal error occurred 1
