Description Svip 2010-05-10 21:45:39 UTC If a user attempts to upload a file with a destination filename of "File:X.ext", MediaWiki should assume the "File:" to be a mistake on the user' side and remove it, instead of uploading it as "File-X.ext". Comment 1 Bryan Tong Minh 2011-05-15 12:52:40 UTC Fixed in r88171. It removes the File: prefix and throws a warning.
