The SimplePasteImage extension simplifies copy-pasting documents from external sources: it automatically uploads images to your wiki.

It is not very stable at the moment, for now that is more a proof of concept than a reliable solution. For a more reliable solution please take a look at PandocUltimateConverter.

Please use github issues for leaving feedback, reporting issues and requesting features. I may miss your message on the Discussions tab
