Please add the following domain to the wgCopyUploadsDomains whitelist, so that I can use GWToolset to upload media files from that domain. I have provided at least 3 example URLs to media files that will be uploaded with GWToolset.

Tidy the documentation
@Pharos Could you clarify the documentation you followed? Would be nice if you edit it and note there the URLs we need is the URL to the *description* pages, not deep links. The goal of the URLs is to get check the metadata quality and the clarity of the licensing status.
Licensing status
On http://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/24960 I see an OASC link, explained here: “Images associated with these artworks can be downloaded for license- and cost-free scholarly and academic publication, according to the Terms and Conditions”.
This restriction is not compatible with Wikimedia Commons.
So you convinced the museum to relicense them?
@Fae and @MichaelMaggs a clarification of your token would be appreciated to know what you support: the idea to upload MET files or to ignore licensing concerns?
As Pharos and his folks are working to a deadline, I heartily endorse white-listing the site. This is no-risk as Pharos can ensure that test runs prove to everyone's confidence that licensing has been addressed and that the metadata is nicely handled, including credit templates and links to the license evidence, even if that requires an OTRS ticket.
The Met museum would like to test a GWT collection upload on Beta Commons. Licensing will be clarified later this week, before upload to Wikimedia Commons.
We can I think approve the test uploads to Beta straight away, on the understanding that of course a suitable Commons-compatible licence will need to be chosen for the actual Commons uploads.
We clarified the status on IRC Pharos and me and I concur, we'll sync the config change this evening and clarify the licensing later.
