МедиаВики бәхәсе:Licenses

Using only UploadWizard for uploads

Hello! Sorry for writing in English. It was noted that on this wiki upload is not fully functional for users, who will experience a very difficult and/or illegal uploading. In fact, the licenses/copyright tags dropdown is empty, making it hard or impossible to comply with copyright requirements during upload itself.

Presumably, you don't have interest nor energies to have hundreds templates with the now required HTML, even less a local EDP. I propose to have

• local "Файл төяү" restricted to the "Администраторлар" group (for emergency uploads) and
• the sidebar point to commons:Special:UploadWizard,

so that you can avoid local maintenance and all users can have a functioning, easy upload interface in their own language. All registered users can upload on Commons and existing files will not be affected.

All this will get done around 2014-07-03.

1. If you disagree with the proposal, just remove your wiki from the list. Remember also to create MediaWiki:Licenses locally with any content (see a simple example), or uploads will be soon disabled anyway by MediaWiki itself (starting in version 1.24wmf11).
2. To make the UploadWizard even better, please tell your experience and ideas on commons:Commons:Upload Wizard feedback.

Remove GFDL

GFDL is meant for software manuals and it is not good for media because it makes it difficult to re-use the material. Motivated by the the wish of making it easier to re-use files Wikimedia Foundation Board decided in 2009 to stop using GFDL as a sole license per this message. So I suggest that GFDL is removed as a suggested license. --MGA73 (бәхәс) 14 апр 2021, 17:18 (UTC)

I added missing word "manuals" above. Removing GFDL from the list will not affect existing files. It will only change the list of suggested licenses for new uploads. --MGA73 (бәхәс) 16 июн 2021, 16:25 (UTC)

English Wikipedia have recently decided that GFDL-only is no longer permitted (August 2021). --MGA73 (бәхәс) 5 авг 2021, 18:02 (UTC)

Update to 4.0

Hello! Latest version of Creative Commons is 4.0 so I suggest to update to that version. Also I still think GFDL should be removed. --MGA73 (бәхәс) 17 июл 2024, 19:20 (UTC)
