As of the current Site Policy of Chinese Wikinews (zh-wikinews), zh-wikinews prohibited all local uploads for fair use images and only allowed free-licensed images from Wikimedia Commons (commons). But in recent, a newly-elected zh-wikinews administrator 1j1z2 (nickname in Chinese: 唐吉訶德的劍) ever notified me about "local upload" feature on this page below: http://zh.wikinews.org/wiki/User_talk:BrockF5#.E9.97.9C.E6.96.BC.E6.96.87.E4.BB.B6.E4.B8.8A.E5.82.B3.E7.9A.84.E5.95.8F.E9.A1.8C In addition, the local upload feature was ever re-opened without notifications, it caused fair use images uploading to zh-wikinews as a log below. http://zh.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=upload&user=&page=&year=&month=-1&uselang=en According to the Policy of zh-wikinews, should "upload & re-upload features for auto-confirmed user level" be disabled permanently to satisfy the policy of zh-wikinews? (Easier to say: only Administrators can upload site-used images for site maintenance.) Best Regards, Rico C. Shen Administrator & Accredited Reporter of Chinese Wikinews
http://zh.wikinews.org/wiki/Special:ListGroupRights?uselang=en The link above is about user permissions at zh-wikinews, In this information I meant was "'only' keep upload & reupload rights for administrators (or above)" and "'remove' upload & reupload rights for auto-confirmed users (or below)". Regards, Rico.
Changed to the following settings: 'zhwikinews' => array( 'user' => array( 'upload' => false, 'reupload' => false ), 'autoconfirmed' => array( 'upload' => false, 'reupload' => false ), 'sysop' => array( 'upload' => true, 'reupload' => true ) ),
