Another way is to use a redirect on the image description page.
it don't really works as expected, and the behavior changes with the mediawiki version, it's worst with the 1.5 new version. Example: http://dodin.org/mediawiki/index.php/Image:Image-test-Ftp.jpg * the image is added on top of the page (this could be seen as an enhancement to the page :-) * the image page content (at least the automatic part of) is added at the end of the page. This is not very important, though, but for very small pages where it's disturbing.
This is the way the bug image and download image on the frontpage of OpenSUSE.org work. Try: http://www.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Image:Bug.png
mediawiki 1.4.6. I made the tests on mediawiki 1.5 and a one line test page :-(
The drawback is that each image then becomes linked with a particular page, and this causes issues when it is used elsewhere in the wiki.
true
One could just upload the same image for each navigational icon one needs but if we could find a way to use single storage and some script that would be good.
there is a bug report in mediawiki http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=539 that I don't fully understand, given my weekness on php :-(. jdd -- pour m'écrire, aller sur: http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.net http://arvamip.free.fr
