Where do I see file uploads?

On wikis, I am used to being able to keep tab on files being uploaded via Recent changes. Here I cannot find any overview showing files being uploaded. Where must I look? __meco (talk) 20:06, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

Appreciated. Would I have been able to find this page through any of the wiki's pages/menus? __meco (talk) 20:12, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

Sort of. Under tools on the side bar, hit upload a file and that takes you to boywiki.org/media --Etenne (talk) 20:20, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

Nah, that's what you get. I get: Permission error - You do not have permission to upload this file, for the following reason: The action you have requested is limited to users in one of the groups: Administrators, uploader. I propose you add this view to somewhere, perhaps the community portal. In any case, you need to provide the link to the files after fulfilling an upload request. __meco (talk) 20:46, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

There's also https://www.boywiki.org/media/Special:NewFiles By the way, why do we bother having an upload link on the sidebar, given that hardly anyone has access to use it? Lysander (talk) 21:30, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

Because I find it useful. --Etenne (talk) 21:56, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

I agree with Lysander, it should go. __meco (talk) 21:58, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
