Ask for more information for uploaded files (comment)

[srish]

There is a bit more information that https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard asks for at the time of uploading a file. We have not considered this in the tool as of now.

It might be useful to allow users to choose, for example, a license, category, date work was created or published, etc.

Exactly. We need to see what mwclient supports. From the docs, I see:

            filename (str): Destination filename, don't include namespace
                            prefix like 'File:'
            description (str): Wikitext for the file description page.
            comment (str): Upload comment. Also used as the initial page text

We have filename and description now. Comments need to be supported.

Sounds like we are missing license details, which seems to be a problem.
