After creating uploader group on ckb.wikipedia, "Upload file" link is not shown in toolbox for non-admin and non-uploader groups and this is not good. Now it is shown for administrator and uploader groups and it redirected to "Special:Upload" and this is good. Please provide this link for non-admin and non-uploader groups too and redirect it to Commons for non-admin and non-uploader groups: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload/ckb?uselang=ckb Thank you
Please set 'wgUploadNavigationUrl' for ckb.wiki to: //commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload/ckb?uselang=ckb

Also, it is not possible to make the "Upload file" link appear (regardless of destination) for users without permission to upload. As an alternative possibility, you could do what nlwiki has done and enable uploads from all users, but set $wgUploadNavigationUrl to point to Commons. That way, if users want to upload files locally, they would have to manually browse to Special:Upload. To do that, though, the uploader group would have to be deleted.
I might be wrong, of course :) Please tell me if you know better.
I think that if we set $wgUploadNavigationUrl to point to Commons, all users even users without permission to upload can see "Upload file" link. Like en.wikibooks, although I don't have upload right there, but I can see "Upload file" link, because they set $wgUploadNavigationUrl to point to Commons.
Is anybody here for resolving this simple bug?

Yes. If $wgUploadNavigationUrl is set, then upload a file link is shown for all users, even if they don't have upload rights locally. --------- To clarify, if $wgUploadNavigationUrl is set, then that url will be used for *all* users, including those in uploader group. Once this is set, if someone wants to upload a file locally to ckbwiki, they would need to manually navigate to Special:Upload (In reply to comment #5) > Is anybody here for resolving this simple bug? Generally config change bugs just take a week or so for somebody to get to them.
OK, so really it is just a matter of setting wgUploadNavigationUrl. That is easily done. The documentation at mediawikiwiki [[mw:Manual:$wgUploadNavigationUrl]] is unclear on this matter (i.e. user permissions): Brian, since you seem to know about this, do you think you could flesh it out a bit?

OK, please set it to this address: //commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Upload/ckb?uselang=ckb
