Description Monomium 2011-05-18 03:11:33 UTC 
When using a completely acceptable title like "Picture of the Year 2010 Banner 1", the AJAX validation responds with

"This looks like a file you obtained from another imagehost. Please make the title more meaningful. Also, double check that you have the rights to publish it on Wikimedia Commons."

This kind of false positive is annoying and troublesome. I can cheat the check by making it longer and renaming it later, but it's poorly designed.
Comment 1 Neil Kandalgaonkar 2011-05-18 05:39:25 UTC 
should be fixed in r88363. This will take some time to propagate to the live site
Comment 2 Mark A. Hershberger 2011-05-20 22:45:05 UTC 
marking fixed for now.
