Hi.
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52056
I've proposed uninstalling the UploadBlacklist extension from Wikimedia wikis. My reasoning:
- it's a very small extension whose configured blacklist, as far as I'm
aware, hasn't been updated in years;
the AbuseFilter now supports blocking uploads based on SHA-1 hash;
I don't consider the blacklist particularly effective as it's trivial to
bypass (intentionally or accidentally); and
- uninstalling the extension will help reduce, ever-so-slightly, some
technical debt.
Not much to add I guess :-] Thank you for the clean summary!
