Admin Forum:Showing Deletion Notes on Files

If a page is deleted, every time someone goes to the page a box will pop with the related information from the deletion log (e.g. this). However, on images there is no such box (e.g. ). Is there anyway or coding to get this on images? Having the box helps notify an uploader that "yes, this has been deleted, it did not disappear in a server error or fail to upload", as well as giving reasons for why it was deleted (the person who uploaded the image will be a lot more angry if they think it was deleted for no reason).

 * Manga - I see what you are talking about and understand where you are coming from. However, the information is there for users to see what happened. In your example it says under the file name: "View or restore 3 deleted edits", giving the viewer the indication that it was deleted, along with summaries as to why it was deleted by the initial editor. That's a fair amount of information. What do you think we would gain if we added the box on the delete page? --Meighan http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 21:57, July 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * Except for one thing. Actual editors can't view and restore information. Go on, log out and try it, the "View or..." message doesn't appear. I'm an admin and you're a staff, so we can see it, but we're going to be the ones deleted the things, we're not the ones who need informing of it.
