Description:
I've set the following bugs blocker for this action (please remove if not blocking... dur):
bug 18112 Retain URL as metadata on upload-by-url
This seems a critical bit of metadata for permanent recordkeeping.
bug 18200 Upload-by-URL has a different file size limit from HTTP POST uploads, needs to be shown in UI
This seems somewhat important to friendly UI.
bug 18201 Upload-by-URL should enforce $wgMaxUploadSize early when Content-Length header provided
Important?
bug 18243 Upload via URL: More meaningful error messages when HTTP error encountered
Seems common to get HTTP errors... more datas!
bug 18264 Cannot use "upload by URL" feature with javascript disabled
Actual feature loss, fixme please.
These are related but probably not blockers:
bug 18132 Support multiple file uploads with upload-by-URL
bug 18202 Upload-by-URL should run in background, report feedback interactively to user
Also, this one is related to bug 18200 and probably can be fixed at the same time:
bug 18411 The upload form only checks upload_max_filesize, not post_max_size
Version: unspecified
Severity: trivial
