Community Wishlist Survey 2023/Multimedia and Commons/Easier drag-and-drop uploading with licensing options/Proposal/en

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
  • Problem: It's hard to upload images and provide the correct licensing information. A prime example is screenshots. They could be more frequently shared at technical support venues like the English Wikipedia's Village Pump (technical), but many users don't because they either don't know how to upload images or are confused by the licensing.
  • Proposed solution: Expand the VisualEditor drag-and-drop upload tool to have a dropdown that lets you select the license.

    A similar solution could also be explored for the 2010 wikitext editor.

  • Who would benefit: Users helping others with technical issues on the wiki, and users who simply want to upload and use images more easily.
