[[File:Bildschirmfoto 2019-06-08 um 17.18.08.png|thumb|Report a upload Problem]]
I am currently uploading a lot of images with the Upload Wizard. In general it is a good tool. But the new area for metadata is crazy. I have a lot of images, to which I like to add the same metadata (taken at the same location). Now I have to click each image separately – crazy. Can you please improve it in a way there I can select more or all images and add the same data? Or even better add it to the "Describe" page – than the creation is one step. Please implement the improvement fast and good – otherwise I will skip the metadata, sorry. --[[User:GodeNehler|GodeNehler]] ([[User talk:GodeNehler|<span class="signature-talk">{{int:Talkpagelinktext}}</span>]]) 08:00, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

::Hi Aklapper, my issue with metadata at the upload wizard:
::- I have uploaded a lot of images (e.g. 50)
::- I have add a license
::- I add Category and a description
::- at the same page it would be useful to add at the same page the metadata.
::- I have often images with similar content, so it would be useful to copy down the metadata like it is possible for the description
::- Next step is to apply the images with data at the upload wizard
::- Now the page with metadata appears
::- I can add metadata for the first file - works fine, also for the second one
::- Problem for me: now the page is jumping back to the top and I have to scroll down again to the image, where I am working on. This is annoying. It seams to be that the page should load a preview of each image, which is not working well in my case. If the preview image is loaded, the page seams to work much better, but in my case preview is only loaded in 10% of the cases. I am using MacBook Pro from 2018 with chrome browser.
::- For all following images, where I am working on at that page, I have to scroll down, which is really time consuming - and at the end I didn't add the metadata.
::- It would be really a benefit, if the page would not always jumping back to the top.

I am currently uploading a lot of images with the Upload Wizard. In general it is a good tool. But the new area for metadata is crazy. I have a lot of images, to which I like to add the same metadata (taken at the same location). Now I have to click each image separately . Can you please improve it in a way there I can select more or all images and add the same data? Or even better add it to the "Describe" page – then the creation is one step. Detailed information for an issue, which is a bug from my point of view, below:
- I have uploaded a lot of images (e.g. 50)
- I have add a license
- I add Category and a description
- at the same page it would be useful to add at the same page the metadata.
- I have often images with similar content, so it would be useful to copy down the metadata like it is possible for the description
- Next step is to apply the images with data at the upload wizard
- Now the page with metadata appears
- I can add metadata for the first file - works fine, also for the second one
- Problem for me, which is not expected: Now the page is jumping back to the top and I have to scroll down again to the image, where I am working on. It seams to be that the page should load a preview of each image, which is not working well in my case. If the preview image is loaded, the page seams to work much better, but in my case preview is only loaded in 10% of the cases.
- For all following images, on which I am working at that page, I need to scroll down, each time.
- It would be really a benefit, if the page would not always jumping back to the top, which is really time consuming
I am using MacBook Pro from 2018 with chrome browser, each with latest SW version.
