*''This request is on hold until the [[BoyWiki Council]] and the [[Curator#Keeper|Keep of the wiki]] clarifies if we can allow direct links to pdf's and film torrents.'' --[[User:Etenne|Etenne]] ([[User talk:Etenne|talk]]) 14:32, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
::Why limit this to a restriction on pdf's? Downloading ''any'' kind of information, in ''any'' format, may violate copyright laws ''somewhere''? Do you see what I mean? The fact is that any time you view something on your computer screen '''''you have already downloaded it to your computer''''' (to the RAM memory chips of your computer). That's a ''fact!'' But if you ''print out'' something which appears on your screen -- something which is under copyright -- and then you try to ''sell copies'' of it, '''''that''''' is violating copyright law! Viewing something on your screen which happens to be copyrighted (which ''many browsers will allow'' in the case of a .PDF file, even though the ''actual'' .PDF file is ''not'' directly downloaded and saved to your hard disk - it only remains in the volatile computer RAM, just like web pages do) '''''is''''' perfectly legal.

How to requests file uploads

Only sysops and uploaders on BoyWiki have access to upload files. Therefore, this procedure has been set up to allow regular users to suggest files for uploading. BoyWiki users may also submit new images via email for consideration.

Instructions

Users

Provide: (1) a URL for an image that you would like an authorized file uploader to upload; (2) a proposed filename; (3) a proposed licensing tag; (4) a proposed upload comment; and (5) your signature (~~~~).

Sysops

Review each item and mark either {{Done}} or {{Rejected}}. In the case of a rejection, provide a brief rationale (e.g. "Out of project scope").
