SimpleBatchUpload

Only users with the writeapi right can upload files via this extension. By default, all registered users in MediaWiki have this right.

Upload Page

You can upload files via the Special:BatchUpload page.

You can navigate directly to Special:BatchUpload/CatPicture to generate a page in the File namespace with {{CatPicture}} as content for each file you upload.

Upload Button

Place the {{#batchupload:}} wikitext parser function into any wiki page to show an upload button.

Use {{#batchupload:CatPicture|Fluffy|Example}} to create File namespace pages with wikitext {{CatPicture|Fluffy|Example}} for each upload via the button.

You can specify each file uploaded via a button should get a prefix. {{#batchupload:+rename=!^(Fluff-[./+]*)?!iu -->Fluff-}} gives each file you upload via the button the Fluff- prefix, so that your Cat.png file gets uploaded to File:Fluff-Cat.png.
