Closed, ResolvedPublic3 Story Points

Description

Motivation
For this first MVP, the FileImporter should only be accessible through the link provided by the FileExporter. For testing, we currently use a specialPage where the url of the file you want to copy can be added. This should not go live

Acceptance Criteria

  • The URL page of the FileImporter either does not exist, or is not available on production and mediawiki
  • Remove Special:ImportFile from list of SpecialPages
  • Remove input field from Special:ImportFile
  • Show a message to the user explaining how to properly use the extension (link to help page on meta)

Can be tested and seen on https://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Special:ImportFile - afaik the text that should show was not defined anywhere. We also might want to remove the beta warning but I am not sure about that.

P.S.: On https://mwfileimport.wmflabs.org/wiki/index.php/Special:ImportFile I have the input field enabled so it's easier to test files.
