Hi.

So earlier this year, Wikia removed our code customisations to MediaWiki:Common.js which disabled the "Add a Photo" button on the side rail and automatically sent users to Special:Upload. In recent weeks however, this has now resulted in almost daily image policy violations and I now see nearly one image per day (or more) being uploaded by users who think we are an image repository and think they can upload whatever crap they want here.

We cannot readd the customisation that had been done because Wikia now considers it a TOU violation (how I don't know, it simply bypasses their lame uploader and pushes users to the MediaWiki core uploader o.O) to disable this button.

Is there some way that we can find a compromise so that we don't have to continue dealing with these users who violate policy?

Discuss below, thanks. :)
