Description eviatarbach 2011-12-25 00:20:32 UTC
Invalid filenames (for example, those with colons) generate an error that says "Unknown warning: badfilename" after submission. However, they should be checked before submission to allow the user to revise it, the same way duplicate filenames are detected. After submission, there is no way to go back, and one has to start over. This is especially a problem if the file was large.

This sounds like a potential regression, I thought it did, as that's why the Titleblacklist api module was added...

Cannot reproduce, here. Can someone close this bug? It appears to have gone away.
Comment 3 Mark Holmquist 2012-05-10 22:23:24 UTC
Could not reproduce, please send more precise information!
