Description

Sometimes, Video2Commons does not work or not as expected, so it would be great to have the Video Cut Tool as an alternative for just getting a video uploaded.

@Gopavasanth is this still valid if yes then, please provide on what URL should one make post request

Hi @Punith.nyk, It would be great if we have direct upload functionality as well without editing. We can probably take the filename as the video name and provide an option to user to edit required fields similar to the current method of uploading video to the commons.

Yeah, that being said, I don't think we don't want commons to commons reuploads, but rather user-device -> videocuttool -> commons.

@Punith.nyk The API for uploading should be the same as the one defined at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/plugins/gitiles/labs/tools/VideoCutTool/+/refs/heads/master/server/controllers/router-controller.js#15

Hey , @Gopavasanth @Soda

  1. Process time is needed for this particular issue ?
  2. What should be the title (Should it contain _edited_0 in its title) ?

  1. Should I eliminate the Download button in this particular case?
  2. Should the comment section be left empty? or should it have any default text or it should be allowed user to fill ?

Hey , @Punith.nyk Thanks for taking this up! Appreciate all your efforts and enthusiasm :))

  1. Process time is needed for this particular issue ?

Yes, we can disable only in this particular case.

  1. What should be the title (Should it contain _edited_0 in its title) ?

In this case, It would make more sense to keep the file name as the title name.

  1. Should I eliminate the Download button in this particular case?

Yes we can disable this button, that's a good catch.

  1. Should the comment section be left empty? or should it have any default text or it should be allowed user to fill ?

It would be nicer to have something prefilled like "Uploaded a video by <Username> with VideoCutTool"

(In general, please do not upload test videos to Commons which violate the project scope. You may use https://commons.wikimedia.beta.wmflabs.org/ instead. Thanks! :)

Hey @Gopavasanth @Soda
So I came across uploadWizard and saw that when a person uploads new content to the command there are a bunch of things that the user has to look into

choosing licences, adding descriptions in another language etc...

So should VCT also have these functionalities when uploading video to commons directly?

I personally do not think it should have, as everytime something changes on Commons, VCT would have to be updated. Maintenance costs.

I agree too :) Let's not complicate this upload process with VideoCutTool.
