Description Rainer Rillke @commons.wikimedia 2014-05-10 09:35:33 UTC Currently, when using allimages and aiuser, only results from the images table are returned. The oldimages table is not considered. However, it is often important to know who has uploaded a file first. Comment 1 Rainer Rillke @commons.wikimedia 2014-05-10 09:37:26 UTC *to get the files first uploaded by a specified user* This is not really possibly using log queries because one has to trace moves and one never knows whether a file was deleted or moved, thus one query per file is due which often floods the API.
