Well, if you look at the title, there it is clear as day, "English subtitles for clip: File:Landing at SFO 2022.07.06.webm"

Okay, I should test on more than one site next time.

I am saying that to end users clicking on these things, it seems like there is something wrong.
Also, if one presses the shortcut shown in the right,
one just gets to a weird redirect information page.
Mar 25 2023
Oh and by the way, there isn't even a initial download button unless one selects Desktop view way at the bottom of the wiki page.
Okay, now let's step back and take a look at picture number two again. There are indeed some direct download links at the bottom there. However they are just to the jpg cover image, not to the webm media file itself.

Also, do you realize even at 50 items per page, those results are often very long, and the user has to identify visually each picture to find the right one even if he remembers part of a title etc. It's just such a pity being so close to an answer but so far because there's no little box on the page to just simply add an additional keyword!
Mainly this item needs to be made more like the web pages of the '20s, not the '90s.

Well it turns out there was only four sections on the page in the first place:

https://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+detect+user+finished+entering+field gives plenty of ideas. No need to even wait for the Submit button.

Sure, the warning goes away when he has entered the fifth character, but
currently every users gets warned whatsoever, unless they use paste instead of typing.

I see. I forgot a limit, and I now need to chop it up into more runs.

Slightly related: Here I was looking for a way to get behind the ".jpg":

Below on https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:19940722epoplar.jpg we finally found links that correctly correspond to the pictures to their right:
That's great, but won't fix the bug with the aforementioned Special Page.
Mar 3 2023
Yes, I hope they fix it one day. In
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Eastern_part_of_Tanaga_Island_Alaska.jpg#Summary I show how the seconds can be used to reconstruct the correct position of the aircraft. As you see the user must download the original file to get the info that should have at least been in the "Show extended details" section. With the info in hand the user can proceed to make the calculations.

On https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Western_Kanaga_Island,_Alaska.jpg
we see the subseconds,

Vital GPS times:
$ exiftool Eastern_part_of_Tanaga_Island_Alaska.jpg |grep GPS.*:21 GPS Time Stamp : 03:25:21 GPS Date Stamp : 2022:12:21 GPS Date/Time : 2022:12:21 03:25:21Z
A plane travels very far in one minute.
A cellphone GPS might not even update by then,
but the clock always updates once a second.
Hence the importance of showing those seconds:
The only hope left to extrapolate a more accurate position.

Thanks but I was just saying there should be a better default.

All I know is:

Sure, moving the page around causes an "add topic" thing to appear at the bottom. But that's only momentarily if they scroll the page.
Feb 18 2023
OK, I told them.

@Tgr Thanks for updating the doc!
,,, formatversion=2...
OK, but one then needs to weed out duplicates. OK, I'll add ucshow=new.
That's good to know. But the user is distracted by the many boxes on the page, and might have had bad experiences with the ESC key in the past. So the page could mention somewhere that it is safe to hit...
Feb 13 2023
The doc just says:
aiuser:
Only return files uploaded by this user. Can only be used with aisort=timestamp. Cannot be used together with aifilterbots.
Wait, something redirects to it,
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:19940726cardston.jpg&redirect=no
but that isn't in the results either.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Allimages doesn't mention anything special.

That is good to know, but hard to know!
Users don't know that.
Yes, if they never looked in Preferences,
things would go perfect for them.
Sorry. I am talking about the box as seen in the following image.
Some users might not see any of that, as it is controlled by Preferences.
Chrome 111 on Linux.
OK, I should have said, "as shown in the attached image." Sorry.
Oh...
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets
- Hide Structured Data Tab: Hide the Structured data tab.
OK, I see it when I use an incognito window.
So the problem must be one of my Preferences...
