Batch edits by OpenRefine on Wikimedia Commons need to be undo-able
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

People sometimes make mistakes, and it is nice if they can be fixed 😎

It would be great if batch edits (and uploads) made by OpenRefine with StructuredDataOnCommons can be undone.

This could, for instance, be done with the EditGroups tool, if it were ported to Wikimedia Commons too. @Pintoch has written some thoughts on Wikimedia Commons' Technical Village Pump: https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Village_pump/Technical&oldid=590894146#EditGroups_tool_for_Commons

In the longer run, his does make the need for T203557: Create a Edit group extension more apparent too.

And an instance can be tested here: https://editgroups-commons.toolforge.org/. You might not be able to login there yet, my OAuth consumer credentials need to be approved first (this generally takes at most a few days).
