Flag of Hezbollah

Please allow the image to be used there, the article is about the flag, and I have added the fair use rationale to the image file.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 04:24, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

@Kintetsubuffalo: Assuming you meant File:Hezbollah Flag.jpg,  Done. (In the future, that's the kind of thing you should specify). Jackmcbarn (talk) 04:27, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Never had to use this before. It still isn't showing up.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 04:30, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Requested exception for File:Cold penis.JPG

Smegma

File:Smegma Penis02.jpg so that it can be used on the Smegma page. Thanks in advance! -- 186.84.54.198 (talk) 02:56, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

Please add actual target for restricted image being redirected on commons

Currently, File:Circpn.jpg is listed on the bad image list here on WP as one would think it should be but because that file name is actually a redirect on Commons to the true target file, c:File:Circpn - circumcised penis.jpg, it is possible to get around this list's intended "masking" behavior locally simply by using the redirect's file name.

I just had an anon troublemaker exploit this over on Wikisource who had replaced a handful of the standard box banner images before another admin managed to blocked the ip so I figured best to note this "bug"? here as well -- in short -- restricted images can still be rendered locally if the target image has a redirect and that redirect's file name is used instead of the actual targeted file name. -- George Orwell III (talk) 23:59, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

Does it work similarly the other direction? For instance say that File:A.jpg is on the bad list and that File:B.jpg is a redirect to File:A.jpg, is it possible to get around the list by linking to File:B.jpg instead? -mattbuck (Talk) 08:31, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

That's exactly what I tried to describe -- go ahead and link to File:Circpn.jpg for yourself (just preview it in any edit session without saving the edit). Even though that particular file name is listed as restricted here on WP, it will still render because it's not the actual file name that truly hosts the image on commons (e.g. it's a redirect). -- George Orwell III (talk) 09:19, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

From what I understood, to use the terms of my example, you are saying that File:B (the redirect) is on the bad list, but File:A (the image) is not, and that allows you to link to A. I was asking if A was on the bad list and you link to B. -mattbuck (Talk) 09:59, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

I have disabled the request as it appears that discussion is ongoing. Please reactivate if necessary. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:34, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

@MSGJ: I'm not arguing here, I fully endorse the change, I'm just asking about the technicalities of how the list handles redirects in the first place. -mattbuck (Talk) 14:14, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

I'm sure not sure if there is actually a change to be made here. There isn't any specific request, unless we are just talking about the one penis image. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:42, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

Okay, it seems like I need to have the images render to get my point across...

[[File:Circpn.jpg]]  -- is already on list so it shouldn't appear below but it does because its only a redirect on commons, not the true hosted file name.

File:Circpn - circumcised penis.jpg

[[File:Circpn - circumcised penis.jpg]]  -- Not on this list please add to list because it is the true target file of the above redirect]]

File:Circpn - circumcised penis.jpg

Isn't it enough that something on the restricted list still manages to get rendered for someone to act on this? -- George Orwell III (talk) 20:37, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

Done I've replaced the redirect with the target file. It looks like redirects are ignored by the list. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 02:43, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Thanks @Mr. Stradivarius:

As I mentioned earlier, somebody used that "redirect loophole" to quietly change some of the box-banner images over on Wikisource the other day so somebody needs to look into this further 'cause I'm sure its happening on some sister project in some language or another as well.

And if, for example, the : prefix is removed from the File:foo strings for each entry on the current list here on WP and that modified list is [re]rendered, you'll see another dozen or so restricted images coming thru thanks(?) to this "quirk". I urge somebody with the appropriate access look into this further and open a Phab ticket if need be (if not just re-jigger the maintenance Bot dealing with this list to somehow check for redirects from now on?). -- George Orwell III (talk) 03:13, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Restricted-use media list

Three years ago, a consensus (now in the archive) was reached to rename this list, so I reopened T16281, which had been about this same page. In all honesty, there was no certain consensus reached about what the name of the list should be, just that it needed to be renamed. The name "Restricted-use media list" (since images may not be the only restricted media) appears to be the highest and best contender for the new name. Recently, as shown by the code review at https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/53190/, the bug is said to have been fixed and this list page can now be redirected to a page of choice. If there are no objections, I will place an {{Editprotected}} template to move and redirect this page in a few days. In case anyone goes ahead with the rename, be sure to leave a redirect so mediawiki will be able to use it to find the new page. – PAINE ELLSWORTH ^CLIMAX! 16:12, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
PS. There have been several discussions about this, the first of which appears to have been in this talk page's very first archive, here, which took place about seven years ago.

{{Editprotected}}

There has been an alteration in the MediaWiki software, as shown here, that allows this page to be moved and redirected. This was brought about by several discussions on this talk page (now in the archives) and by T16281, which has been open for nearly five years on this particular subject. As noted above, the name of choice for this page appears to be:

• MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list
  

Please rename this page, and be sure to leave behind a redirect so the software will be able to find the new page. Thank you in advance! – PAINE ELLSWORTH ^CLIMAX! 23:23, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Question: Has there been any discussion at a centralised venue on-wiki? This page receives quite a lot of use, so we should probably have a discussion at a place where more people will be watching before we move the page. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 07:29, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Your caution is understandable. As far as I know, this has been discussed extensively here on this talk page and on the bug report page. I am unaware of any discussions other than that. Perhaps we should give it a little more time. We've waited this long so a few more days wait will do no harm. What I can do for now is subdue the Ep template for a bit longer to see if more discussion is generated. --Paine Ellsworth (talk • contribs) 07:56, 19 March 2013‎ (UTC)

I think I'll start an RfC here and advertise it in a few likely places - hopefully that should do the trick. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 08:13, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Thank you, that should help a lot. – PAINE ELLSWORTH ^CLIMAX! 08:18, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Can you explain why we would need a redirect on this page? A) most Wikipedians save the technical minded would never reach this page (and even then only the talkpage itself where the real stuff happens) and B) this is embedded directly into the software itself, and I think the software is better at updating its cache than reading from a redirect. I'd much rather avoid breaking the software with a redirect. TeleComNasSprVen (talk • contribs) 09:41, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

Good question! Frankly, I'm not entirely sure "why", but it has something to do with other wikis, I think. Anyway, the most recent bug discussion at T16281, comment 44 by Platonides, is where talk first begins about the redirect. – Paine Ellsworth ^CLIMAX! 19:39, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

PS. I just reread gerrit:53190 and it reads... "Allow the bad image list to be redirected elsewhere." So the idea appears to be to redirect this list to a different pagename that an admin on any given wiki would be able to alter. PS added by – Paine Ellsworth ^CLIMAX!

It has now may soon become technically possible to rename MediaWiki:Bad image list. Should we move the page to MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list? If not, would another name be better? Or is the name fine as it is? — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 08:19, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

• Support name change to MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list. While over the years the sure consensus was for the need to change the pagename, what name to change it to has escaped consensus. I feel that this name is best-suited for this page, since the usage of the images is "restricted", and since there may be other media besides images that require restricted use. This media is not intrinsically "bad" nor should it be listed as such. – PAINE ELLSWORTH ^CLIMAX! 08:36, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support move to MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list or similar. The page's current name is wildly inaccurate, as I've commented in the past. Tim Starling's 2009 response was downright bizarre, and I'm thankful that we've finally moved past it. —David Levy 10:00, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support name change to MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list. The images are not, they are restricted, suggested name change is good. JeepdaySock (AKA, Jeepday) 10:26, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support change as suggested above. Long overdue. — Hex (❝?!❞) 10:39, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support name change to MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list. It's accurate, concise and objective, like all of Wikipedia should be.--TyrS 11:16, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support proposed rename. I've made countless comments on this issue over the years, and while I don't think I was initially in favour I long ago came to the conclusion that the namechange needs to happen. Thryduulf (talk) 12:30, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support proposed rename. "Bad" is a loaded term. I've seen plenty of images here that I consider "bad" even though they're G-rated. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 12:46, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• comment not to spoil anyone's party but the change in mediawiki has not been approved yet. The bug will be marked fixed when (and if) it is fixed. Cheers Bawolff (talk) 16:09, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

  I for one find that acceptable. After all, this is obviously not an easy "fix", and there are important considerations, like the impact on sister wikis' and their own "restricted-use media lists". After all this time I remain hopeful that there will be a positive outcome. It's my fault for jumping the gun; the positive words I read at the bug report and on the code page gave me the impression that it was all over but the shouting. – PAINE ELLSWORTH ^CLIMAX! 17:57, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

  For my part, I should have checked the technical status before I posted the RfC. Sorry about that. It's probably about time that I learned how this code review business works, anyway. I've tweaked the RfC intro text to make it clearer that the feature is not yet live. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 03:19, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

• Super-strong neutral: This is really inside baseball. Even people who are active on Wikimedia wikis barely know about this feature or its name. It makes almost no difference to me what this page is called. (Tangentially, I personally think the list should be a gallery [bugzilla:24147], as a list of images is not very easy to browse.) If the name is changed, my only comment would be to ensure that surrounding documentation is also updated. Otherwise, I really have difficulty expressing how much of a non-issue I think this page's name is. I'm glad that Platonides seems to have been able to cut the Gordian knot (such that it was). I'll push to see that gerrit:53190 get approved, as I think it's a reasonable change and a reasonable compromise here. It'll likely be another three or four weeks before this change is live on the English Wikipedia, however. --MZMcBride (talk) 19:04, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

  "Bad image list" obfuscates the feature's purpose, even if "bad" isn't taken literally. An image's inclusion reflects a history of vandalism, not an assessment of its intrinsic qualities. Images widely regarded as offensive are among the most likely targets, but a seemingly innocuous image can be abused just as easily (as part of a meme, for example).
  The page's name has caused confusion with non-trivial implications. For example, during the image filter debates, the list's existence was cited as evidence that Wikipedia already evaluates images and deems certain ones "bad"/objectionable. —David Levy 22:30, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your support of gerrit:53190, MZMcBride! As you are neutral about what this page is named, so am I neutral about whether it should be a list or a gallery. One thing about all this that shouldn't be missed, though, is that our ability to change the name of this page means that if one day it becomes a gallery, it can easily be modified to a name like MediaWiki:Restricted-use media gallery or similar. – PAINE ELLSWORTH ^CLIMAX! 17:32, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

• Comment: MediaWiki:Restricted media list is less wordy, less jargony, and possibly easier to understand for a non-native speaker, and I would suggest it as an alternative to "Restricted-use." But either way, support. Fishal (talk) 19:39, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• I agree with MZM. The page could be called MediaWiki:Flying pink monkeys as far as I'm concerned, so long as it has the same functionality. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 19:49, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support name change to MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list. More accurate name that will be less confusing for those that stumble over it for the first time. Granted, this will not be the most important decision ever made, but a reasonable one. --Atlasowa (talk) 09:49, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support - these images aren't "bad" - each of them is (probably) a good image for some topic which our encyclopedia should cover. They are "restricted use" - that is, use of these images is under strict control, for they have a high chance of being abused. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:38, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
• Neutral and bikeshed. I agree with Fishal that MediaWiki:Restricted media list sounds better. --cesarb (talk) 21:32, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support I'm with Baseball Bugs on this. It's not really a bikeshed issue to me, because I think that using the term "bad image" to describe... well... a collection of images primarily consisting of genitalia sends the wrong kind of message. The message needs to be "people are abusing the use of these images by putting them in unrelated articles", and not "porn is bad kids". This is also Sven Manguard 22:57, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

  Certainly if it's not possible. It's not (yet) technically possible for a user to rename an interface page. Cheers, theFace 19:34, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

• Support rename, but I think "Restricted-use media" sounds awkward. Would prefer: Restricted media list, Restricted media or Restricted files. The name should at least contain the word "Restricted" to emphasize its connection with Template:Restricted use. Cheers, theFace 19:28, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support - I think moving it from "bad" to "restricted" makes sense. I think MediaWiki:Restricted-use media list sounds more clear about what the page handles, but that's only because it sounds more clear to me. However, I don't think it's a big deal what it actually gets changed to in terms of those small details. - SudoGhost 03:17, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
• How about "abused images" or "shock images"? —rybec 03:23, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

• The use of the images are restricted, so I think that would be the best descriptor. I don't think abused or shock works as well, because that makes an assumption about why they've been added which may or may not be accurate, but more importantly doesn't give as concise a description as to the function of this page. The images are restricted, why they're restricted may vary, but "Restricted image list" makes it clear what the purpose of the list is, whereas "abused images list" or "shock images list" makes it seem as though it's just a collection of shock images without describing the actual purpose of the page, which is to restrict the use of the images.. - SudoGhost 05:40, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
  • "Shock images list" is particularly bad as not all the entries on the list are shock images, and it is not necessarily the case that all the images have been abused. Thryduulf (talk) 18:14, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

• Support. "Badness" depends on context. Rivertorch (talk) 19:43, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
• Support Please call it Index of Explicit Media. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 19:27, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

If an image, whatever it may depict, is used for vandalism, one possibility to combat the vandalism is to put it on this page. Almost all media on this list are explicit, but there are a few exceptions. Currently, I count 15 of them:

5 swastikas: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5; 2 logos: 6, 7; 4 tame pics: 8, 9, 10, 11; 3 weird pics: 12, 13, 14; and 1 gif which should give you seizures or something: 15 (seriously, what is this??).

Cheers, theFace 20:34, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Ah, I didn't think of that. Thank you. In that case, I'd support List of restricted-use media or some variation thereof, with "restricted" instead of "explicit". §FreeRangeFrog^croak 20:44, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

You seem to be supported by the other devs, MZMcBride, since this update has once again been abandoned (by the same dev) today. Another dev, Parent5446, left an interesting message in May at the other update, gerrit:53190, and appears to disagree with the above consensus. So how can this feature be "killed" and what "other anti-abuse features" would replace it? – Paine  17:19, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi Paine.

I assume AbuseFilter filters would be sufficient here. The input mechanism would definitely change, as would the user-facing behavior. We could, for example, apply a filter only to users with fewer than 1,000 edits. And edits adding disallowed images could be prevented entirely rather than the current behavior of allowing page saves and not rendering the image inline.

Removing the bad image list from MediaWiki core would probably happen after switching all the bad image lists on Wikimedia wikis to AbuseFilter filters. --MZMcBride (talk) 18:09, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

We try and call it the 'edit filter'; it suffers the same problem. In my opinion, AbuseFilter is not suited to the task. With maintenance and exceptions, you'd be better off with this. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 18:29, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi zzuuzz. In a technical world where accuracy and precision matter, I'll stick with calling the extension by its actual name. What does "suffers what same problem" mean and why do you believe a tool such as AbuseFilter would be unsuited to this task? Preventing "bad" edits, such as adding shock images to unrelated articles, is exactly what AbuseFilter is intended to be used for, as I understand it. --MZMcBride (talk) 14:22, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi MZM. I am not really riding the re-naming pony so will leave the acceptability of the name to others (the same problem, IMO). Me, I recognise the hassle in renaming stuff .. PC sarcasm doesn't come across well on the Internet. The abuse filter would be ideal for filtering a small number of limited applications of certain images.. I suspect we may even have a couple of examples. I can just see it being over-complex for the amount of images and exceptions, and turnover, we have currently. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 14:31, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Hah! Fair enough. A mix of Poe's law and TwoHardProblems, I suppose. :-)

I agree that AbuseFilter wasn't exactly designed with this use-case in mind and using a filter to replicate the bad image list's functionality would be a bit awkward. There would be trade-offs: we'd gain a lot more flexibility in enforcing and monitoring bad image additions, but the input mechanism would be even more obscure and would be less monitored by admins (I think AbuseFilter still doesn't integrate with Special:Watchlist or Special:RecentChanges).

It might make sense to do a pros/cons evaluation of making a switch. My personal view, as I expressed over in Phabricator Maniphest, is leaning toward this feature being too weird for inclusion in MediaWiki core. It would help my argument if I gathered actual usage statistics across Wikimedia wikis, but my vague inkling is that the English Wikipedia and a few other large wikis use this feature way more than most sites. That said, the counter-argument to my view is that there's virtue in having a simpler feature that's much easier to understand and use than AbuseFilter. Plus a built-in feature such as bad image list doesn't require installing an additional extension. --MZMcBride (talk) 15:37, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

I dumped some thoughts here: mw:Requests for comment/Bad image list. --MZMcBride (talk) 15:52, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Can someone with the power to do so please add an exception to use the file Male_perineum.jpg on the page Perineum only? I've been trying to update the page for Perineum to have a human photo in addition to the grays pictures already there. I simply wanted to use the images we see on Spanish wikipedia. But I've put them in the Gallery rather than the top of page just because English wikipedia is a bit more scared of nudity. Anyway, it turns out that File:Male_perineum.jpg is blacklisted (though there is no note about this on wikimedia commons image page). Hopefully this is the way to get this addressed? I don't know of a better alternative image. For now I've put an image that is not blacklisted but is less clear as a placeholder on the page. Please let me know if I'm making this request properly or if there is anything different I should be doing? Thanks! Rusl (talk) 02:34, 16 December 2015 (UTC)

@Rusl: Exception has been added.—Bagumba (talk) 08:57, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

File:Édouard-Henri Avril (29).jpg

I address myself to the powers that be. First, in passing, I must express my astonishment that this fairly esoteric and historically themed image would be restricted, especially given the nature of many other images on Wikipedia. Surely the image can be made unrestricted. My actual point, however, is more concrete and immediate. I wish to use this image on my user page, which is not currently permitted, though it is listed as appearing on some other user pages. I request an exception on the restriction, or whatever the appropriate action may be, so that I may so use the image. Antinoos69 (talk) 12:00, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

As I asked at ANI, is there a particular reason you want to use the image? Is there a draft article to be created? Is it a piece on the work itself? Or is this just "I want this picture to add to a gallery on my user page"? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 19:38, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

The image appears to not be displayed on a user page—if it is, please provide a link so the page can be fixed. Wikipedia is not available for campaigns good or bad so some other decoration will need to be chosen. There is no reason to believe this image would contribute towards a collaborative community, and there are lots of prior examples where the opposite was shown to be the case. It's not so much that we are prudes, it's more a case of we don't care—put whatever you like on your bedroom wall or your website, but a user page here is supposed to satisfy WP:USERPAGE. By the way, Wikipedia does not bother documenting every bad idea as prohibited. Johnuniq (talk) 01:19, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

Technical note, answering a question raised at ANI — when you have a collection of erotic images from a single source, and just one is on the bad-images list, this is almost certainly the result of past vandalism with that single image.  There's no point to preëmptive blacklisting of just one image from a group of similar images (blacklist them all or don't blacklist any), but if it's being used now for shock-style vandalism, we're going to be blacklisting it immediately.  Note that all blacklisted images stay on the blacklist forever unless they're removed (unlike normal protection, blacklisting can't be set to expire), so among other things, it's possible that someone added it and then forgot about it.  Nyttend (talk) 02:00, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

As I see no point in repetition, I am now reserving my comments for the Administrators' noticeboard, where I first got a response. I'll just very quickly say two things here, but I'll be conducting all further discussion at the ANB. First, the image appears on this user page (under "Coit"), along with a whole lot else. Second, while I see some evidence of homophobic censorship, I see no evidence whatsoever of "vandalism." Again, I've been discussing this at the ANB. Antinoos69 (talk) 17:45, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

Removing deleted images

Question: should we remove images that have been deleted at Commons? For example, File:Meine Hodensackinfusion detail.jpg was deleted at commons (see commons:Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Expert19612005) so both the page listing here and the version here with the restricted images made I think should be deleted, right? I don't use this so I don't know the policies here. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 23:57, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

You cannot know if they may be useful in the future. There exists a strong consensus on Commons and here that we should not censor content because it may be considered objectionable.

It appears that this particular troll has the same problem everywhere of simply throwing a tantrum of reassertion whenever s/he doesn't get his/her way, whether it be on chemistry articles or internal Wikipedia things. I would encourage you to stop, or you'll probably be forced to soon enough when somebody blocks you. Double sharp (talk) 05:15, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

I would add, that there are a lot of unused images and that any user can nominate any image for deletion, according to policy and the Guide to image deletion. Many of the images are hosted on Commons which has its own criteria and processes. The chances of success may not be particularly high, and in some cases it could be viewed as disruptive, but once the images are deleted they will normally be removed from this list. However this list is not the place to request deletion. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 06:02, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Simply featuring explicit content is no reason for deletion, so this IP editor will likely not get their way. But yeah, this is just being disruptive for disruptive sake at this point, so I'm not even sure why I'm typing this response. ~Mable (chat) 09:01, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

  I've linked to Ulan Bator above (see WP:LTA/SGK).

cleanup:Bad Image List vs.Template:Restricted use and bug

I did a comparison of the entries in the MediaWiki:Bad image list of which there are 691 and files with Template:Restricted use on them of which there are 661. There are 632 in common and 29 pages that use the Restricted use template but aren't on the list and 59 pages that are on the bad image list without having the Template: Restricted use.

Examples of the issue include the following examples:

• File:Tronald Dump.svg is on the Bad image list, but doesn't have the Template.
• File:Woman urinating in a glass.jpg has the Template but isn't on the list.
• And there are also cases like File:Nap08 694.jpg in the Bad image list where the file has been moved (presumably), so the template is on the file that it moved to File:Triangle piercing vulva.jpg. Note, I can add both File:Nap08 694.jpg and File:Triangle piercing vulva.jpg to my sandbox, which means that something isn't working in the software to keep it from being used.

Please let me know if it makes sense to post the entire list of the 29 and the 59.Naraht (talk) 15:13, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Request

I was today rather surprised to see that the (famous?) "tubgirl" image was displayed for a good 3 minutes in the mainspace by the following account: [2]. I had expected it to be on this bad image list, so assumed at the time that there had been consensus against that, due to its image's "significance". However, I took a second look and noticed that the file had been uploaded only just today by this VOA account. The file in question is File:Tubgirl.jpg (just in case anyone unfamiliar comes across this, it is of course incredibly NSFW). Thanks for your consideration —72 _talk 15:12, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

It seems this file was deleted a few minutes after this request so I'm self-marking this as answered —72 _talk 15:32, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

I stopped by this page earlier today, after trying to revert the addition of that image (and getting an edit conflict—someone beat me to it) but decided not to post. For one thing, it says at the top: "Images on the list have normally been used for widespread vandalism where user blocks and page protections are impractical", and as far as I was aware, that wasn't the case. But it also occurred to me that this list appears to be for images that do have some legitimate use in at least one context on en.wp. Is that correct? If so, I wonder if something to that effect might be added in the header box. Rivertorch^FIRE_WATER 16:57, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

I had noticed the fact that on enwiki and commons the file had frequently been repeatedly deleted as "vandalism" or similar. Furthermore, it had been used by two VOAs here on enwiki today. The image itself is towards being one of the worst "bad images" you can find around the internet. The image is not used on the page for shock site, and since indeed the image does not exist anymore I wouldn't be surprised if that image was a credible exception to the rule you mention above. (I know I wouldn't liked to have seen it casually stumbling across a page, whereas other "bad images" wouldn't be that shocking). As for images having some legitimate use, I do believe that many of the images on the page do not list exceptions, so effectively don't have legitimate use as far as the mainspace encyclopaedia is concerned? —72 _talk 18:19, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Right. What I meant to say is that this list appears to be for images that conceivably might have some legitimate use. (Clearly, that's not a possibility with this image.) Or is it also for images that have no legitimate use anywhere on en.wp but aren't liable to be deleted on Commons, for whatever reason? I'm just curious—this is a corner of the wiki that I've never really paid attention to. Rivertorch^FIRE_WATER 19:08, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

We aren't really governed by an image's usage as we make liberal use of exceptions - if anything the list is for images which have been misused. Speaking as the person who actually wrote that "Images on the list have normally been used for widespread vandalism where user blocks and page protections are impractical", I stand by that wording, but do feel I can qualify it a bit here by saying that images are sometimes added when they have been used for vandalism, or they qualify as being clearly grossly offensive and inappropriate in almost every circumstance. As you've discovered, such images can normally be deleted for copyright or vandalism (or any number of other reasons) instead. I'm quite tempted to list this title even as a deleted image, as its meaning is universally understood, it can't be properly salted here, and it's been used more than once. If it appears again, don't refrain from requesting it. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 19:23, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

I'd be happy to salt it on commons if that is desired. Leaving it un-salted is a possible stable honey-pot to watchlist though, given the targets on en.wp where it gets inserted are so variable. DMacks (talk) 19:35, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for the offer. There's always the problem of different titles appearing, so it's reasonable to leave it unsalted if it's being watched (I am not frequently on commons). It would also add to the case for listing it here so it can be honey-potted but not actually used. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 19:43, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Request: use Divine image at Drag queen

I wish to use the image of Divine at File:Divine in Heaven T-shirt.jpg as the top image at Drag queen, per the discussion at Talk:Drag queen#Logan Carter deleted. Can you please adjust authorizations on the image so I may do this? My proposed addition is [[File:Divine in Heaven T-shirt.jpg|thumb|200px|alt=image of the drag queen and film actor Divine|[[Divine (performer)|]] in a publicity photograph from the 1980s]].

Notability has nothing to do with using images of someone, so I am not certain that such an image switch is warranted. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:24, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Jo-Jo Eumerus, thanks for your response; can you elaborate? Apart the notability issue, the image of Divine is a quintessential Drag queen image, and would be appropriate on this article. Whether it gets approved or not, the Logan Carter image is coming out as it smacks of WP:PROMO. It would be okay if there is no image there at all, but for those not familiar with the concept of "Drag queen", an image would help, and the one of Divine seems a perfect intro to the concept. Mathglot (talk) 10:29, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

I would normally have no hesitation in approving this request. However, this is a non-free image. Adding this image as a replacement under fair use suggests that there is no free image of a drag queen available - a very non-credible position. If there was critical commentary of the artist or the picture it would be a different proposition. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 10:41, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Thanks, zzuuzz, I'm not so familiar with "non-free" images and will have to learn about that. What about the Dame Edna image, is that non-free as well? I viewed that one as second choice wrt to the Divine image, since some might view Dame Edna as more of a performer, and not a Drag Queen. If the image of "Divine" is not appropriate here, I will try to find a different one that is clearly a drag queen, and not tainted by PROMO. Do you have an opinion about the Dame Edna image? Mathglot (talk) 11:05, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

The licence on File:Dame Edna (6959716988).jpg is perfectly fine for such usage. In fact, any image under commons:Category:Drag queens should also be OK since commons don't deal with fair use images. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 11:10, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

I'm going to de-activate this request without action. While this list would be happy to accommodate almost any image you'd like in any appropriate article, we can't really sanction using a non-free image where the licence restricts its use.

Possible bad image

Happened to just spot this ANI thread; apparently an explicit image was added to a page early this morning. It appears to be this diff which has been rev-deleted. The bad image list hasn't been updated, and due to the rev-del it's not possible for me to see which image it was, but if it is an explicit image as described, should probably be added here. Home Lander (talk) 01:15, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

That image is used fairly widely, including in userboxen for some reason. So I am not certain it is a good candidate for blacklisting. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:29, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

I've added only File:Firstplane.jpg as it is the only one of those listed in the diff which is not a free image. The others are free to use and fairly frequently used on several projects.

Change "Auto-fellation.jpg" to "Auto-fellatio.jpg". There is no file by the former name, so I assume it's a typo intended to control the latter image. Mortee (talk) 00:55, 18 July 2018 (UTC)

Empty file page deleted under F2. Home Lander (talk) 21:26, 18 July 2018 (UTC)

 Not done: Not a typo — there was originally a file there, but it was at Commons and has since been deleted (three times!). Is File:Auto-fellatio.jpg currently or historically used for abuse? If not, I see no reason to list it. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 13:45, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

Hi both, sorry I missed your replies. Thanks for the explanation. I don't know if File:Auto-fellatio.jpg is being used for abuse or not (I haven't come across it live, but any vandalism like that would presumably be reverted quickly anyway.) If files aren't added here prophylactically then it doesn't belong. Thanks again. Mortee (talk) 09:58, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Hanging

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Biskupia_Gorka_executions_-_14_-_Barkmann,_Paradies,_Becker,_Klaff,_Steinhoff_(left_to_right).jpg

This image was used to comic effect on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_positions#Atypical_positions. Poor taste. Might should be added to bad image list. Temerarius (talk) 16:48, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

File:Creepy, creepy baby jesus 4888401232.jpg

Album cover

File:Nicki Minaj - Queen.png except on Queen (Nicki Minaj album). An IP keeps putting it in the wrong album - plus it's a fair use image so it shouldn't be used anywhere else. Home Lander (talk) 14:44, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

Penis fracture

This edit ([3]) apparently removed the lead image from penis fracture without discussion on the article talk page, leaving the infobox to display with technical errors. The image has been at the top of that article since 2012. This image is a particularly beneficial one for Wikipedia to have, I should add, since many (most?) men seem to be skeptical that the idea is even possible, but the image persuades them instantly. Wnt (talk) 14:27, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

File:B-liu-a-20180904.jpg

I have temporarily added this to the bad image list per WP:BLP. It's a mugshot of a living person, and it's the only free image of them we have - the issue is that it is being repeatedly added to numerous articles despite the fact that the subject has neve been charged or convicted of a crime. This is a current event - I will remove it again when this dies down. Black Kite (talk) 20:25, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Is there any policy governing what images are blacklisted here? I mean, this was not a case of reverting vandalism but of reverting editors. To this day the article Liu Qiangdong is still mostly about the arrest, since through some oversight it is still possible for non-admins to edit articles. Meanwhile the image itself was deleted in Commons by a vote of 2 Keep 0 Delete because supposedly mugshots are copyrighted public data. When a man has more administrative power than his neighbors, he constitutes a majority of one. Wnt (talk) 09:12, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Multiple image request

Please add File:Fimosis.jpg, File:Xin Zhui 3.JPG, and File:Inflammation of the glans penis and the preputial mucosa.jpg, which were all used for vandalism by this user; see Special:AbuseLog/22436470 also. Images may require exceptions on some pages. Thanks. Home Lander (talk) 01:20, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Could also throw in File:Cats having sex in Israel.jpg; see Special:AbuseLog/22401978. This one is arguably less problematic, though. Home Lander (talk) 01:23, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Home Lander -

• File:Fimosis.jpg is already on the list.
• File:Xin Zhui 3.JPG is  Not done. It doesn't need addition here yet until more vandalism continues by other accounts.
• File:Inflammation of the glans penis and the preputial mucosa.jpg is  Done.
• File:Cats having sex in Israel.jpg is  Not done. I don't consider it needing addition here at this time (unless more abuse of it shows up).

Should we state this?

I'd like to note that not all images on this list are objectionable. ^いくらBraden1127 _イクラꅇ 14:44, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

To quote from the box up top: Images on the list have normally been used for widespread vandalism where user blocks and page protections are impractical. "Bad image" was a poor naming choice, but it's to cover images that are commonly used for vandalism, not images that are bad in and of themselves. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 22:31, 10 November 2018 (UTC)
