Bug ID: 63889 Summary: GWToolset should allow to use custom templates Product: MediaWiki extensions Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: GWToolset Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org Reporter: jeanfrederic.w...@gmail.com CC: bawolff...@gmail.com, david.hask...@europeana.eu, d_ent...@yahoo.com, mtrac...@member.fsf.org Web browser: --- Mobile Platform: --- I understand the design choice to whitelist a specific list of common templates (Artwork, Photograph, etc.), but advanced users have valid use cases for using a custom template. The most important one in my eyes is the use of ingestion templates, as they allow easily to do super-advanced formatting & metadata ingestion in plain wikitext − a method very popular with batch uploaders at the moment. I realise this sort of defeats one of the purposes of the GWToolset − to map metadata − but it is very frustrating not being able to use the full power of wikitext for mapping. (See <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Mus%C3%A9e_des_Augustins/Ingestion> for an example of such a template) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
