Hi,
yep, simply edit the Message and it should work. However, if you take a
look at your Special:Upload page with the ?uselang=qqx parameter amended
to the URL, you'll see, that the div, that should contain the uploadtext
(with the id uploadtext, directly under the Upload summary) looks like:
<div id="uploadtext"
class="b-upload-text"><p>(uploadfile_text:
)</p></div>
So, unfortunately, your MediaWiki installation uses the interface
message uploadfile_text instead of uploadtext. You should check, why,
e.g. because you changed something in the source code of MediaWiki, or
an extension is misconfigured or does something else weird, which would
result into this. First you should check the file
includes/specials/SpecialUpload.php somewhere near line 270, there
should be something like:
$this->msg( 'uploadtext', array( $this->mDesiredDestName )
)->parseAsBlock().
Is this line there?
However, in a clean MediaWiki installation it should work.
I looked at the page from my mobile phone, so I probably oversee
something :D
Best,
Florian

Subject: [MediaWiki-l] Special:Upload & MediaWiki:Uploadtext

Hi.
Is it enough just to create the page [[MediaWiki:Uploadtext]] to have
it's content displayed on [[Special:Upload]]?
I ask because I encountered such a problem on a non-WMF wiki.
Page
[[MediaWiki:Uploadtext]] was created with a custom content, but
[[Special:Upload]] remains intact, unchanged. This happened on Wargaming
Wiki -
http://wiki.wargaming.net
Related pages:
http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/Special:Upload
http://wiki.wargaming.net/en/MediaWiki:Uploadtext
You'll
need probably to create an account there to check this yourself. But
you can see also this short video I've recorded, which is demonstrating
the issue:
http://www53.zippyshare.com/v/qSVnbq9c/file.html (I tried to
attach it to a mail but there appeared problems with the size of
mail+attachment).
Can someone tell me what's wrong here and how it can be debugged?
Thank you in advance.
Dan
