Category selection/removal and missing duplicate warning
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

I've been using this form exclusively to upload thousands of images for a large Wikisource project, and there are three separate bugs - One old, and two recent bugs which appeared about 10 days ago.

  1. The old bug is that when selected multiple categories for an image, the selections remained after the upload and were applied to the next image, unless I noticed and manually corrected it. When selected a single category, the new selection replaced the old. I no longer assign multiple categories, even though it would be beneficial.
  1. Since the last 10 days or so, any category selected from the list remains unseen in the summary, and I end up with numerous categories unrelated to consecutive uploads. Please see the enclosed image.
  1. There used to be a duplicate image warning when returning to the upload page (using the browser back button. This warning no longer appears, so I am not sure if the upload was completed.

I reuse the same summary over and over again, and changing only minor details relating to the image. I am now uploading about 200 images per week and these bugs seriously slow down the process because I must remove the incorrectly applied categories, as you can can see from my activities.

bug #3 might be a commons specific bug or a mediawiki bug I'm not sure.
