Sorry to keep asking so many questions, but i have noticed with our upload of Welsh landscapes that several different images often have the same file name. Each upload is just replacing the previous file by that name. Is there some way to give each 'version' of the file its own page on commons or would i have to manually identify each one and re-upload with new file names?
You can find several years worth of project pages and discussion at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Batch_uploading
Schemes for unique filenames and best practices are discussed in detail. If none of this is easy to see in the GWT documentation, then the batch uploading pages are a good source to crib from.
