Description Mihael Simonič 2009-03-01 17:07:55 UTC
Can you install 'Category On Upload' extension on sl.wikipedia, sl.wikisource, sl.wikibooks, sl.wikiquote, sl.wiktionary? 


Greetings, Miha

What extension is this? Is the request still current, do you have consensus?
Comment 2 Mihael Simonič 2012-08-23 20:19:21 UTC
[[medaiawiki:Extension:CategoryOnUpload]]

They use it (or something with exact the same funtionality) on Wikimedia Commons.

I'm pretty sure the request was made by some users and no one was against the proposal. I'll try to provide you with relevant Pod lipo (Village pump) posts. 

Best regards,
Mihael

The extension is on svn, would need to be migrated to git (not a big problem).

The code seems secure, but there's a deadly sql query there (SELECT DISTINCT cl_to FROM categorylinks). The code acknowleedges it in a comment: "Perform a query on the categorylinks table to retreieve a list of all cateogries, this probably shouldn't be installed on wikis with more than a few hundred categories as the list would be very long".

It seems feasible to polish it, though.

Sorry, searchfail on my end: [[mw:Extension:CategoryOnUpload]].
[[commons:Special:Version]] says this extension is not installed there, what do you want to achieve exactly?
Thanks.
