Be added to near the "view deleted edits" section? As a non-admin, it's very frustrating to try to find the deletion history of an image that has a red link and going to Special:Upload. Gracenotes T § 05:12, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
It doesn't seem to work in some cases. Example http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Special:Upload&wpDestFile=Harvest-Let%27s+Fight.ogg goes to http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Special:Log/delete&page=Image:Harvest-Let's (no .ogg) (Check the Fight.ogg deletion log?) but the link to Special:Undelete is right ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Undelete/Image:Harvest-Let%27s_Fight.ogg).
deletion log works Fight.ogg deletion log doesn't. Kotepho 15:09, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Right... so... every fair use image we have that contains a person or a building needs to be deleted? Er... I think not. Can this be re-worded to avoid giving that impression, please? – Gurch 12:22, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

{{ editprotected}} Please remove the quotation marks from Images that you just "found somewhere". I see no rational for their inclusion. Thank you. Reywas92 Talk 19:58, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Just to let you know, the word "licenced" is misspelled. This is on the line that says "An explanation of why you believe the file is so licenced." An administrator or anyone with sufficient privileges should correct it to "licensed". You may use a spell checker to see for yourself. -- Alex rosenberg35 18:51, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Does anybody actually read this thing? It's the worst case of interface fruit salad I've ever seen on Wikipedia! -- Carnildo ( talk) 18:34, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
I've got a new version of the upload header at User:Carnildo/Sandbox-upload. Advantages of this version include:

Currently there is a link to the deletion log ("Check the deletion log?"). As the missing image might have been on commons, should the commons log be linked as well? I added this as a trial [1]. -- User:Docu
Sorry guys. $1 doesn't work when transcluded, so it needs to be here. You'll have to use editprotected to make requests to change this, unless someone knows of a workaround to allow this. --- RockMFR 15:16, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
Is there a simple method to get from the Special:Upload to a preset tag with the detailed Non-free use rationale? I know this sounds like a question for the help desk (and it is if the answer is yes), but it seemed to me that the only method to add the detailed rationale was to copy/paste it from the non free rationale guideline. Am I missing something or is this a deliberate choice among upload options presented by the wizard? Protonk ( talk) 19:16, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
I know of a leading female scientist in the University system, she has won several awards. She is also one of the leading women scientists in the field of Climate Change. I would to be able to organize data and hard evidence\ facts, to legally create a Wiki page. Would appreciate some feedback! :D
Does anyone have any Idea how I go about this?

Hi, after a discussion with another user, I have realised that specifying that a link to the webpage the image was taken from may be a good idea. This user was merely saying that the images were from Flickr, rather than linking to the page from which they were taken. Would anyone have an objection to this being included? Does anyone have an idea about how this could be done? J Milburn ( talk) 21:19, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Hello. Had a few suggestions for the basic en.wiki upload form (Special:Upload). First of all, please remove the new preview feature (or move it to the bottom of the page). Its extraordinarily annoying for it to push the rest of the page down. As an uploader, I should take the time to make sure the image is correct before uploading it, and this preview feature promotes ignorance in my opinion. Second, can we copy what Commons does and make it so the form is partially filled out?
