Re: [Commons-l] A strange error

Hi, I followed a link recently to <http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:100_3508.JPG> which was a nominee in the 2007 POTY competition and has since been deleted because it was uploaded under another name. When I attempt to create the page, to add "#REDIRECT [[:Image:A_storm_at_Pors-Loubous.jpg]]", I get this message: ---------------- Permission error You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason: The name of the file you are uploading begins with PICT, DSC, image, ..., which is a non-descriptive name typically assigned automatically by digital cameras. Please choose a more descriptive name for your file. ----------------- So... this is kind of weird. Is it just a MediaWiki bug? It seems like this check should only happen when Image: pages are created by new uploads, as opposed to manual editing. Also I thought the "sensible filename" thing was a warning rather than an error. And "permission" is not too accurate for what type of error it is. Just thought I would check if anyone has any insight on this before putting it on bugzilla. thanks Brianna -- They've just been waiting in a mountain for the right moment: http://modernthings.org/
