As I understand, there are two ways to use an
image from
another language-wikipedia...
Is one way more recommended than the other?
Images should not be shared among Wikipedias. it is
our goal
to have each Wikipedia be complete and
self-contained, except
for links to the Internet at large. Disk space is
cheap--if
the same image appears in 10 wikis, then it should
be uploaded
10 times and linked locally in each. That way, when
we make
a backup of each wiki, each backup contains the
whole content.
Perhaps
Would it be thinkable then, that when we upload an
image, on whatever wikipedia, we have a list provided
with the opportunity to add the other wikipedia to
which we want to add the image at the same time.
Somehow, a common place for upload ? With as many
description areas as languages chosen.
Hence, we would have separate space, but common upload
facility ?
