Hello! Sorry for writing in English. It was noted that on this wiki there is little community activity around uploads: less than 50 "Futa" actions in "Faili" last year.
I guess this wiki doesn't have the interest or energies to maintain complex templates and metadata, especially for EDP files.
I propose to
so that no new work is needed on this wiki and all users can have a functioning, easy upload interface in their own language. All registered users can upload on Commons.
In all cases, existing files will not be affected, but everyone is welcome to join m:File metadata cleanup drive. The goal is to give better credit to the authors who provided us their works.
Hi Kipala! When someone upload files to swwiki there will be a dropdown list with suggested licenses. The suggestions are whatever is shown on MediaWiki:Licenses. So if you remove GFDL as one of the suggested licenses then it will no longer be on the dropdown list. It will not affect any files allready uploaded with GFDL. According to Maalum:OrodhayaFali there are uploaded files to swwiki. --MGA73 (majadiliano)12:33, 28 Mei 2021 (UTC)[jibu]
Hello again. I fixed a typo and added missing word above. When someone upload files they are asked to chose a license from a list. I think we should only include good licenses on the list. There is no reason to give someone the option to chose a bad license. If GFDL is removed then users can still upload files. All they have to do is to pick another license. --MGA73 (majadiliano)16:21, 16 Juni 2021 (UTC)[jibu]
My suggestion is to remove these lines
