i can put in an option for it. do you mind opening a bug as an new feature request for
it.
possible implementation:
√ check box below the mapping drop downs, near the category or licensing options, to
indicate that you want the url to be present; default would be checked; uncheck it if you
don't want it.
with kind regards,
dan

I have an unusual scenario where the GLAM might make
images available
either under a one-shot deal where the source website might vanish
after upload (possible a transient FTP share) or where I am allowed to
systematically use high resolution links that are not normally
directly declared but only passed on after CAPTCHA checks that the
requester is human. In part, the CAPTCHA is in place to avoid having
bots bring down their servers with a flood of requests; there seems to
be little in the way of automated throttling to handle these events.
Can we have the option of not saving the link-to-media-file in the
metadata on the image page? I could remove it with a post-upload bot,
however it would remain in the history and therefore be potentially
data-mine-able.
The link would effectively be replaced by a link to the catalogue
page, where a user can navigate to the same high-resolution file after
passing the CAPTCHA.
