Description

The images listed on MediaWiki:Bad image list are prohibited by technical means from being displayed inline on pages, besides specified exceptions. Images on the list have normally been used for widespread vandalism where user blocks and page protections are impractical.

Instructions

Making requests - Requests for additions, removals, or exceptions may be made on this page. Any administrator can make changes to the list. If there is no response after a reasonable time, consider repeating a request at the Administrators' noticeboard.
Posting to the list - The format is as follows: Only bulleted list items (lines starting with "*") are considered. The first link on a line must be the link to the high-risk image. It is recommended that you use an initial colon in this link, so people can view this page without seeing all the restricted images. Any subsequent links on the same line are exceptions, i.e. articles where that image is allowed to be displayed inline. Text outside of links is ignored and can be used for comments. Piped links cannot be used. Please check the spelling of potential duplicate images before removing.
Image description page - A bot will place {{Restricted use}} on the image description page. This will advise users how to request that the image to be allowed on articles (that is, to expand the except list for it).
Removal from the list - When removing deleted images from the list, please double-check that the relevant image talk page has been deleted as well.

[edit] File:Urine.jpg

A blocked user improperly used this image on their talk page here. Way more than what I wanted to see when I checked a diff. Calabe1992 00:41, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

[edit] File:Vagina.jpg

File:Vagina.jpg was recently used for vandalism in a couple of articles. NB: there's an ongoing discussion on Commons over whether to just delete it. —Bill Price (nyb) 02:46, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

[edit] File:Ola eblawi.jpg

File:Ola eblawi.jpg is a new image, probably of very limited use, and potentially abusable. part of a series of images, the rest seem to be not particularly subject to abuse, and probably of some importance, none of which were categorized.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 08:29, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
