I was trying to use the MediaWiki API to upload screenshots faster to the Eclipse wiki (I find using the "upload" form cumbersome), and I noticed that the wiki uses an old version of MediaWiki (from 2008 apparently) which doesn't support the "upload" action:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/api.php?version=1

Would it be possible to update to a newer version?

I found another way to upload images, through the web form instead of the API.
It is slower and more "hacky" but it works, so I'm closing this bug as "works for me".

Also, feel free to delete the following test images:
