As stated in this talk page topic, I've made substantive updates to Extension:MsUpload (the article, not the extension itself) that I believe warrant having a new screenshot. However I lack the appropriate access to use Special:Upload, and c:Commons:Fair_use seems to dissuade one from uploading screenshots, stating they will be "deleted on sight."

Other screenshots for Extension:MsUpload appear to have been uploaded locally, so I am trying to follow suit. The image in question can be viewed here (Imgur link).
 * why do you think that the image would fall under fair use? Wouldn't Wikimedia screenshot (or, if the extension isn't installed on WMF sites, a similar template with the correct license) be enough? --DannyS712 (talk) 04:17, 10 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I could match the license for the screenshot in the infobox on the extension page, which is public domain. However, I'm not sure whether any of the visible parts of the interface are actually copyright the icon artist or the Pluploader project (third-party JavaScript uploader bundled by the extension), which is why I considered "fair use." The other two screenshots on the extension page have no license at all. Fact remains that all three screenshots on Extension:MsUpload are on mediawiki.org, not Commons, so it made sense to me to ask to be able to upload it here. Thanks for your consideration.
