Which license tag should we use for those? PD-old?

For a long time we've had to suffer with an image upload form which was
pretty bare-bones, while attempting to shoehorn more smarts into it
through templates and JavaScript hacks.
Well, I think it's about time we prioritize really doing this thing
right. Commons, and MediaWiki generally, needs an upload form which:
a) Works sensibly
b) Looks good
c) Allows you to upload the file, extract metadata, compare duplicates,
make sure it's sensibly named, and *then* commit it into the system.
d) Handles batch uploads with a minimum of fuss (or at least, as
minimally fussy as one can get with HTML file upload forms :)
Note that this isn't going to be done by tacking JavaScript and
templates onto the existing form; this is going to be a real effort to
redesign it from scratch into something that handles today's actual needs.
I'd appreciate hearing from people interested in helping out in the
following capacities:
* Designing user interface mockups
* Helping code it up in MediaWiki
* Testing the new form under development
* Providing constructive criticism as we work
This effort will probably take from a few weeks to a few months to get
to the point where it's really live; we may even try experiments like
having the old and new forms available side-by-side on the live site so
people really have a chance to bang at it in real usage without forcing
an in-flux test system on everyone.

Hi,
Following from a discussion with the French Ministry of Culture (in charge of national museums, among other things), I'd like to know whether some museums, French or otherwise, officially put content onto Wikipedia or Commons.
I'd also like to know about the various upload schemes for artwork, including uploading of content that we deem PD under Corel v Bridgeman Art Library.
Cheers
DM

I have mentioned how important this thought is at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Stewards_policy#Changing_rights_in_own_…
and http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requesting_help_from_local_Wiki_sysops_or_bu…
to express that current situation has unnecessary bureaucracy and
delay. Further discussion should be made on Meta, but suggesting a
specific page these is appreciated.

This comes up every now and then, but now it is finally possible to
make Global Groups. This means that if there is Wikimedia wide
consensus for it, the stewards could create a user groups, in which a
SULed user can be added so that they can view deleted edits on any
project. Needless to say this would be incredibly useful for Commons
admins who need to review crosswiki file uploads.
Any opinions on this and how to get the unnecessary consensus on this?
Bryan
