Description and purpose

edit

ImageRemovalBot's current task is to remove images that have been deleted but not removed from articles.

Images in the article, category, and portal namespaces will be removed. Images in the template namespace will be left alone, but a message will be logged on the bot's talk page. Images in all other namespaces will be completely ignored.

ImageRemovalBot was written in Perl using the Pearle code for accessing Wikipedia. It shares much of its code with OrphanBot.
