At some points, a contributor uploads several images to Commons and wants to write an article with a gallery. This use-case shapes a need in a mobile application being able to do these things:
Show a list of Commons uploads, with tick-boxes next to each, and rather spacious comment boxes at the right.
It should be possible to refresh the list.
It should be possible to search others' contributions and add them to the gallery too.
There should be a textbox for the contributor to type their mobile model into, for commons people to verify in the uploaded pictures EXIF metadata.
Show a textarea for article content, usually above the gallery.
Show a checklist of what the textarea content should contain. (A per-project thing.)
An additional wizard screen presenting these options after upload commenced.
