Forum:Default license box

Sometimes when an user on fr.guildwars upload an image on the wiki without selecting any licence, a defaut template call is added anyway to a non existant template (but i created it) called something like "no license selected" but in french. That is great.

But, it doesn't happen all the time. It seems this only happen if they used the button for uploading that is in the toolbar. If they click a red link to an image (we have a real lot of them) on any page or use special:upload, there's no defaut license box added.

Does someone know how to fix this ? — TulipVorlax 20:21, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I've noticed this too, it happens once in awhile, if you don't select a license, sometimes the image will have on the image information page, so I just redirected it to Template:No license.--Richardtalk 20:40, 15 February 2009 (UTC)


 * There was no template so i created one with the proposed french name.
 * This part is OK.


 * What i'm asking is how to make so every time they dont choose a license that template is added.
 * Why is it important ?
 * Because on fr.guildwars every single image must be in a category that is added by any of the licenses box we have.
 * That our way.


 * Now, i'll repeat, when users upload an image using special:upload, most of the time, no template is added if they dont implicitely select one.
 * I want that this to never ever occur again !
 * I'm asking, please someone, i need to know how have a default selected license in the license drop down menu or that if no licence is selected at all, the wiki automatically add something (every time the same thing).


 * While writing this, i just though that the license drop down menu is a simple form sub element add by JS and that maybe i can modify it so there's something selected by defaut. I'll try to find the way.
 * But if anyone know something, please, i'm begging you. Lol. — TulipVorlax 00:08, 16 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Erf! I mistaken the license dropdown with the autosumary... — TulipVorlax 00:10, 16 February 2009 (UTC)


 * If you want to know which images have no license, if all your license templates adds the image to a category, you could track them in Special:UncategorizedImages. --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 19:22, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I already know that.
 * I should have visited that special page more in the pas two years.
 * There's 390 files. I though there was more.
 * But still, it's a lot and i'm not paid to put a template box on image users upload; i would prefer they could not upload until they select something in the drop down menu. I.e. that the summit button be disable until selection changed in the license box.
 * I know this would not be too difficult to do because form element have events but Wikia staff might not want to do this or they have more important things to do or... there's many reason i can think of but i'm not good enough with english apparently.
 * So, until maybe one day someone find a better way, i'll just go to each of the 390 files one at the time and evaluate wich license box to use in each case or if it should be deleted. — TulipVorlax 21:29, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
