Just FYI.
As this bug:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T94562
seems to be fixed, hopefully, the problems with uploading big DjVu files
using upload wizard should diappear. I have tested it today with few
60-70MB DjVus and everything seems to be fine.
I think, the url2commons tool also uses stash upload, so it was also hit
by this bug. Starting from today, I would expect less number of problem
reports related to uploads from IA.
However, we still have the misleading message on
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload
suggesting that any user can upload files up to 1GB in size.
In fact, the limit here is 100MB. And only stewards/Commons admins/license
reviewers can omit it using direct URL upload.
Other users should be able to upload >100MB files using UploaadWizard with
chunked upload enabled.

Done. Thanks you Billinghurst.
