Questions from Cloud VPS activists

About unclear copyright status files on Wikimedia Cloud servers
<bozzy> there is a person who verifies a scanned piece of paper in which a museum manager authorizes the release in free license, before uploading on Commons.
<bozzy> This way the Commons community does not receive an avalanche of problematic data. We felt it was more respectful to them.

<taavi> you can't store material with unclear copyright status on WMCS either..
About uploading directly on Commons
<bozzy> The tool will be a sort of "image uploader". Kind of "pre-Commons" for a GLAM-related project in a specific country.
[29/08/22 17:00]
<bd808_> Why not upload to commons and then mark the "unuseful" things for deletion? Commons will have more storage and better performance than almost any Cloud VPS project.
<bd808> https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Volunteer_Response_Team is exactly for things like reviewing and validating image releases as well. I'm not saying I know enough to say that there is no need for a staging process, but this all sounds like things that the community knows how to deal with.
