Change Details

Import either succeeds, or fails (poorly - see T7701). Many requests have come in for "warnings" to be implemented. So # the user uploads an XML dump or picks a transwiki import source, and hits submit (or via the API of course); # MediaWiki downloads the dump, processes it, and if it encounters any warning conditions, stops and returns a warning page to the user; # the user decides whether or not to proceed; # if they choose to go ahead, the dump is fully imported. Otherwise the dump is not imported at all; # the stashed dump is deleted from the server. This is similar in spirit to the `uploadstash` functionality.
