Forum:Having the license template selection show for Add photo

Uberfuzzy locked Forum:Customizing the contents shown through "Add an image", so I can't put my response there. I'm not going to use Special:Contact here because I want a response that other admins can see, since it concerns the ToU. Tagged Staff needed.

The license template dropdown menu was added to the "Add a Photo" popup dialog, but it is hidden by default in a collapse "More Options" part of the dialog which I'm sure many users will never look at.

My question is this: would moving the license template dropdown menu out of the "More Options" area so it is always showing be a violation of the ToU?

It doesn't block functionality or ads. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 16 Jun 2011 2:18 PM Pacific


 * Along these same lines, and not intending to dilute Fandyllic’s posting, I think that Add a photo should also display the contents of MediaWiki:Uploadtext. This text is truly crucial as it is the only point at which the maintainers of a wiki can communicate with the members the wiki’s guidelines for uploading images.

 * On our wiki we NEED Special:Upload and Special:MultipleUpload to be the unique way to upload images on the Wiki, since I created a special JavaScript thing to do several validations on the "destination filename", suggest changes on it and even auto add categories o license based on the destination filename. Also, rejects any upload that has both license and description empty, or with some blacklisted names. Those implementations are unable to do in the "Add a Photo" popup dialog so Wikia should provide an alternative to that so communities can enforce local upload policies. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 09:59, June 17, 2011 (UTC)
