Status of local uploads

On several wikis where Special:Upload offered no dropdown options, local
consensus has been found on appropriate community pages to soft-disable uploads
and point to Commons.

* List of wikis:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Nemo_bis/Unused_local_uploads&oldid=9078533
* Discussions:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Nemo_bis/Unused_local_uploads&oldid=8940453
+ some which asked to join and linked discussions in the page.
* Hundreds local uploaders and sysops have been separately messaged or pinged
and I had more specific conversations with a few dozens wikis which will
therefore not join this phase.
* Two wikis with an EDP are included: they seem to be ok with this anyway,
probably because only sysops upload EDP-covered files locally anyway.

Upload on those wikis would be disabled separately by bug 66960, which has been
notified with the discussions above as well as two issues of Tech News.

Status of uploads on those wikis as of yesterday is attached (it's an excerpt
of https://tools.wmflabs.org/robin/?tool=uploadconfig ).
