@Hans,
Thanks for the input so far. Please keep me updated on that overwrite. If
anything, it is once again a reminder that these things must be done right
the first time around ;)
Best,

We're talking about
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Media_contributed_by_Museum_Cat…
? Main uploader there was HuskyBot i think.
I made a mistake some months a go while uploading photographs of dead bird
skins for Naturalis with GWToolset with various views for the same
specimen uploaded under the same filename. So that is like uploading a
higher resolution, an image with a different checksum under the same name.
You see the result here:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Naturalis_Biodiversity_Center_-_RMN…
(scroll down)
Later uploads under the same filename by GWToolset were accepted as new
versions.
Caveat: the uploader was the same user for these various "versions".
Best regards, hansmuller
PS At the end of my present batch (18/12 morning?) GWToolset is requested
to overwrite medium resolution
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Naturalis_Biodiversity_Center_-_RMN…
with large, so we'll see.
I can put up a test image to test if another GWToolset user can overwrite
it (?). I don't think so, this might be Arnes problem.

Hi Arne,
I actually don't think this can be done. It is an action in which an
existing file on Commons must be updated, this is not supported by the
toolset. We had a similar issue with higher res. Video files. We decided
to stick with the current resolution. Alternatively, a volunteer could do
this update using a script. Best,
Jesse

Dear Arne,
Yes, this is a modest batch that can be done with the GW toolset, most
easily if the images each have a (temporary) individual URL and so are
accessible on the internet.
Groeten, hans muller

Hi all,
Museum Catharijneconvent has approached us that they would like to
make higher-resolution versions available of images that are already
available on Commons. Around 800-1500 images are involved.
Is this something that can be handled by the GW toolset, or are there
better ways to do this?
Best,
