What (summary)

Why this is important

Hot linked images can be changed without any review by the community. It's a sort of "security hole" that could expose us to some embarrassment down the road.

DoneDone

  • When a link to an external image is encountered at page save
    • The external image is automatically uploaded by the saving user
    • The page for the newly uploaded image is edited to reflect the origin of the image and a question about whether it is appropriately licensed or not
    • The link is converted from the external link, to the internal link for the newly uploaded image
