Forced to add a description/ verify i own the file i'm uploading.

I'm trying to upload images with the visual editor to a miraheze I run but it forces me to add descriptions to them, and verify i own them. Don't get me wrong regarding verification, I'm not stealing images, but all I do is just click a checkbox. Is there a way to turn this forced verification/ description stuff off? Before answering, bear in mind, i'm not a techie. Thanks in advance.

There is $wgUploadDialog which if I'm not mistaken controls this, but I'm not sure if it can do what you want. Alternatively a bit of JavaScript could probably check the checkbox by default and/or set a default value for description which would allow continuing with uploading.

Thank you for the answer. Do you know how to do that on a miraheze?
