We're talking about

  https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Media_contributed_by_Museum_Catharijneconvent

? 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:

(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_-_RMNH.MOL.216649_-_Mitra_aurantia_aurantia_%28Gmelin,_1791%29_-_Mitridae_-_Mollusc_shell.jpeg

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.
