when one uploads a file, he can write something in the Summary text area. after initial upload, one can always edit this summary. However, if one goes to the Special pages and click on the File list, he always sees the image link plus the initial summary text, not updated text. is this what MediaWilki should be or is it a bug? i believe users like to see the updated summary text. i verified in ver. 1.7.1 and 1.6.5
Description page and upload summary text are conceptually separate, and in future will likely have separate input boxes.
thanks for your reply. i feel i might be misunderstood. on the page of File list, you can see lines of files and each line has the following similar info items: (desc) Bluehills.jpg . . 28,521 bytes . . WikiSysop . . 17:35, 29 June 2006 (test1) here "test1" can be entered at the time of file upload. it can also be modified (say, it is changed to "test2") by editing the description page of a file. when modified, the description page shows "test2" as the latest and "test1" appears with past versions. the bug i am talking about is: on the page of File list, it ALWAYS shows "test1". I believev "test2" shold show up.
