The first patch still has not been merged. There has been no activity in some time so changing back from PATCH_TO_REVIEW

Telling people to release their contributions under the incorrect license (as currently the case is on wikinews) is a serious issue, and threatens the legal foundations of our projects.

Change 104906 abandoned by Jdlrobson:
Add an ability to change the copyright warning in editor and uploader

Reason:
Please feel free to re-open this patchset and see it to completion! Abandoning so it disappears from the queue of things to review due to inactivity.

This bug can be closed as resolved -> fixxed, am i right? MobileFrontend uses the License set in LocalSettings for both editing and uploading :)

See https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/116016 introducing function "getLicenselink()".
