For my little sifter demo at
http://test.wikipedia.org/w/magnus/wiki.phtml
I added automated image import. It also imports the image description.
The following bugs persist:
* Image import sometimes needs "re-import" (browser back & submit again)
* #REDIRECTS not supported yet
* Some problems with Russian/Polish chars (see
http://test.wikipedia.org/w/magnus/wiki.phtml?title=Czech_Republic ).
