             Bug #: 38303
           Summary: confusing error message when uploading a file with
                    filename is not allowed.
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

         Component: UploadWizard

I tried to upload an image with the name: 

זהבה%20001[1].jpg


I got the following error:

The filename is not allowed.

though I know what is the problem with the file name, a new user might not
know, and won't be able to proceed as this error doesn't give any hint how to
fix the error.

compare to the ole tool message:

The filename "זהבה%20001-1-.jpg" contains characters that are not allowed in
page titles. Please rename the file and try uploading it again.
