When will we get a ‘disable comment’ feature for uploading with or without an account?

The “Please confirm you are not a robot” prompts are getting more and more frequent and aggressive every day.
It wouldn’t be so bad if the system remembered the original request and resumed it afterwards. But clicking that button only redirects you to the front page.
It’s really annoying to do a dozen tag edits on an image and hit Save, only for the whole tag editor to be replaced with “Please confirm you are not a robot” and a button. It does not matter what you do at that point, because your edits have been forgotten and wiped away, you have to reload the page and re-do them.
Are you guys sure this is how they should work?
I had a bit of a rant typed up about this, but every point I wanted to hit was already covered here. I’ve been encountering it a lot lately and am annoyed, including just now while tagging. I assume there’s a good reason for these prompts, but has anyone looked further into better alternatives to this system in the last 7 months?

Yeah - some of those, like Andy Price is a great example of how we try to document the various online galleries of artists who don’t have profiles here. Keeping them updated is much slower and not as good as with artists actually here, but we do try to update them whenever we have to edit the tags for some reason, like aliasing into newer names.

Artist links in the description is not something I’ve encountered more than once or twice. Maybe we’ll have a better system in the future that allows users to add them to a tag.

I usually add a link in the long description, when I find them or due to working on aliases and stuff like that. But I never do unless I know that it’s one of the artists own profiles or galleries.

Not a mod, but:
There’s a difference between having a URL verified to a Derpibooru account, and having a link in the description of an artist tag. Although AFAIK only an artist can set up a verified link, that’s not needed to have a link listed in a tag’s description as evidenced by many times that I’ve posted in the “Request artist tag aliases here” thread and the relevant links got added to the tag description.

As you said, artists do advertise here, including listing commissions info if they want, and we’re happy to host those commissions or advertisements for them if they’re MLP. But, it does become a problem when artists share only links to other sites, and the image is cropped or censored, and they don’t tag the image as an advertisement. Sorry that happens. We try to prevent it when possible.

Well, I would expect at least that they’d be tagged advertisement, which I see the uploader/artist has not been doing - in all cases, it was tagged by someone else.
(FWIW, I’ve reported and re-reported that artist/uploader at least 5 times for bad tagging over the years)

General case is to assume they mean in the “repost as your own work / without credit or link” sense, which is how the term originally spread on DA well over a decade ago.

K thank you, I’ll look into it in the morning, in the meantime please feel free to upload it, and if you would like, report it for Rule Other and ask for a review of the artist’s licensing and sharing terms, or something like that. Please feel free to start the text part of the report with ATTN:Ciaran and I’ll grab the report as soon as I see it.
