[Mediawiki-l] batch image upload

Fri Feb 18 15:27:21 UTC 2005

Yes I'm aware that wiki is not the perfect tool for the job. However the
fact that I already have it running and have (finally) convinced people
it's an excellent piece of software means I'd really like to try :).

I'll look at your links though for sure.

i don't think a wiki is the right tool for something like this ... 

try something like this: http://coppermine.sourceforge.net/

in action it looks like this:

hope it is usable input,
