Extension:Uploadify

The Uploadify Extension allows users with the "uploadify" right to bulk- upload files from a mediawiki sidebar panel. After successful upload, it returns the MediaWiki Link Tag for the uploaded file, ready to be pasted into the MediaWiki edit article form.

Usage
Click on the "Select Files" Button in the uploadify sidebar panel and select as many files you want to upload. The files will be uploaded simultaneously and the page will not be reloaded, so you can upload files while you edit an article on the fly. After an upload is complete, a textbox returns to the uploadify panel with the MediaWiki Link- Tag. Clicking in the textbox will automatically select the Tag to be easily copypasted into your markup.
