      GWT should prevent the upload of duplicates. Not enough users are working on the backlog...

I have had many issues around this in the past. If the images are the same in quality/resolution then avoid duplicating what is currently on Commons. However if your versions are, in your view, better quality then there is no problem uploading them as they are not true duplicates. Digitally identical duplicates should be rejected automatically at upload as the files have matching SHA-1 checks.
Thats from normal upload. Gwtoolset may be different. Anyways they can be dealt with after the fact too if they are exactly identical as its easy to detect later.
...
For most of my batch uploads I do a check of whatever unique ID is suitable to see if there are matches. This can be highly useful when re-running uploads as a check of matching filenames or image page text is a lot less processing/data volumes than downloading the image file to create SHA-1 values.

Hi,
...
...
On behalf of the Amsterdam Museum I'm prepping a batch upload of about 300 images of their collection of paintings. They've made the selection.
...
...
...
...
I note that a number of their paintings have already been uploaded by individual Commonists to here https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Paintings_in_the_Amsterdam_Museu...

...

Question: Should I upload all images in "my" batch anyway even though this risks duplicating images? Is there a best practise for cases like this?
