Should be possible for banners to come from PageImages extension
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

It is desirable to use the PageImages extension as an alternative source for images that power the banners.
Expected source of image:

  1. If user specified a file name use that (even if red link)
  2. If user didn't specify a file name and Wikidata banner property is set fall back to Wikidata banner
  3. If user didn't specify a file name, and no wikidata banner/no wikidata banner property and PageImages set use PageImages
  • PageImage support is configurable
  • Image can come from PageImages when enabled
  • It should be configurable to swap the order so that PageImages are preferred to Wikidata banners.
  • PageImages support enabled on wikipedias

The patch looks good. @phuedx, would you be kind enough to review it too? I don't feel like merging something I'm not very familiar with well.
