Can't upload more files anymore. (Well, kinda.)
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

On fictionaltvstations.miraheze.org, I've been uploading images for the TV station for a while. A few hours ago, I uploaded more stuff with no problem. Today for some reason, when I try to upload a photo, it keeps saying "This file did not pass file verification." Every file I uploaded so far included a name (just numbering my screenshots), and license, but never any description. I tried putting a description now, but I still can't upload any files. Is this just a random temporary thing, or do I need to get it fixed? I have many more pictures that I would like to upload, but it seems I hit a wall. Help would be greatly appreciated! Anyways, can you try to upload a .png file, so you get what I got? ("This file did not pass file verification.")

The situations that this would happen in are as far as I've seen if: the file is too large, no file type is specified, the file type isn't supported (not enabled in Special:ManageWiki/settings) or if the name is too short. Perhaps you could upload one of the files here so we can have a look?

Sorry for the delay that this took. The issue was not with the wiki but the images you were trying to upload as PNG were actually HEIC and had to be converted. I have tested it out and I was able to upload both files.
