Growth of the Commons dump due to MediaInfo

Some thoughts on how commons will develop with MediaInfo is introduced:

  • The slots-per-edit count for commons will stay at 1, since MediaInfo doesn't support atomic edits of metadata and wikitext.
  • We expect that bots will be used to convert meatdata from wikitext to MediaInfo. So commons will probably quickly approach 2 slots (resp streams) per page in the file namespace. But it will stay at 1 for other namespaces (for now), so the total average may not be too far from the originally estimated 1.33.
