Hello !
Thanks Kilian ! I totally agree with you ! :-) We are going to have a public contest. This upload wizard is a better step tnat a ugly and multifield form. I prefer to have a user friendly form with errors than nothing or something horrible, which is impossible to use.

Hi Romaine,
please keep in mind that the target group for the upload wizard are mainly non-wikipedians and hopefully also people that are new to computers (e.g. 60-year-old hobby photographers), and those will be very confused by the usual forms. The upload wizard divides the upload process (that is a very natural thing to you and me and everybody involved with WLM) into small steps and therefore is easier to complete.
Wikipedians and especially those who will upload hundreds of pictures will rely on Commonist and other tools, they can categorize their uploads by hand.

Hello all,
I am not happy at all with uploadwizard. The uploadwizard at Commons is annoying, this one is worse. I am certainly not going to send users to this uploadwizard. I just need one page in what users can fill in everything, including the monument-id. If that is too much asked for, fine, then we need to create our own uploadform.
Greetings - Romaine (organizing WLM BE/LUX)
