This is really an important initiative!
Thanks for doing it.
I've tried to upload an image for the msd page ( 
http://wiki.puredata.info/en/msd ) but it sends me back an error when 
clicking on "upload file" in the toolbox, even if I'm already logged:


  Not logged in

You must be logged in 
<https://wiki.puredata.info/mediapool/Special:Userlogin> to upload files.

Return to Main Page <https://wiki.puredata.info/mediapool/Main_Page>.


Am I doing something bad or is this a bug?
all the best
Nicolas
