Thanks James, unfortunately the method that you demonstrate there doesn't work with my configuration. Nothing happens when I try that method with Firefox, and when I try it with Internet Explorer then IE asks me if I want to open the file. Maybe that functionality is specific to Chrome? It would be great to extend it to other browsers.
Pine *This is an Encyclopedia* <https://www.wikipedia.org/> *One gateway to the wide garden of knowledge, where lies The deep rock of our past, in which we must delve The well of our future,The clear water we must leave untainted for those who come after us,The fertile earth, in which truth may grow in bright places, tended by many hands,And the broad fall of sunshine, warming our first steps toward knowing how much we do not know.* *—Catherine Munro* On Wed, Apr 15, 2015 at 5:05 PM, James Forrester <jforres...@wikimedia.org> wrote: > On 15 April 2015 at 14:55, Pine W <wiki.p...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Hi Trevor, > > > > I tried a CSV copy and paste as you suggested, but that doesn't work for > > me. > > > Ah, no, CSV and TSV support is for drag-and-drop, not copy-and-paste > (which is plain text content): > > > https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:VisualEditor_-_demonstration_of_CSV_table_creation.webm > > Drag-and-drop of plain text and HTML files inserts the contents, as you > might expect. > > Once it's something that the UploadWizard team can support, we plan that > drag-and-drop of files will upload them to Commons (with a prompt > for licensing, naturally) and insert them in context.
