Change Details

Example: * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Modarres_Expressway,_Tehran_20110912.JPG?action=history is a successful import. Note the prefixed user name `w:fa>P0lyzoarium`. * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:P0lyzoarium already existed on Commons before the import was made. Proof: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Log/P0lyzoarium. * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/P0lyzoarium?end=2011-12-31 neither lists the page creation (**N**) nor any of the later edits the user made to the file description page. * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:ListFiles/P0lyzoarium does **not** list the file uploaded by the user. This is an issue, and becomes serious the moment the original file is deleted on the source wiki. The user can not find his own edits any more then, neither on the source nor on the target wiki. The log and history entries might all attribute the original uploader in a legally acceptable way (via an `w:fa` interwiki link to his original user page). But such links are 1-way routes. From the users perspective his edits got "lost", as they don't show up any more where they are expect to show up. For me, personally, this is **the** essential feature of a proper file import. Everything else was possible before with other tools – even recreating histories. The one issue no other tool could ever solve are these missing back-references.

**Motivation** When a file is moved, its uploaders should still receive full credit for their actions. Since the moved file may be deleted in the source wiki, it is of vital importance that you can see the edits on the target wiki. **Example:** * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Modarres_Expressway,_Tehran_20110912.JPG?action=history is a successful import. Note the prefixed user name `w:fa>P0lyzoarium`. * https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:P0lyzoarium already existed on Commons before the import was made.
