 | MediaWiki:Bad image list prevents the transclusion of certain images when linked to in files, except for specified pages (i.e. [[File:Example.jpg]] would be rendered as File:Example.jpg instead of being embedded in the article if on this list).This interface message or skin may also be documented on MediaWiki.org or translatewiki.net. The page forms part of the MediaWiki interface, and can only be edited by administrators and interface editors. To request a change to the page, add {{edit fully-protected}} to this page, followed by a description of your request.

- Done. I'm thinking we might consider removing this from the list at some point. -- zzuuzz (talk) 14:12, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- I'd support that. The image depicts a well-known person of public interest, and therefore has many potential use cases throughout Wikipedia. Maxeto0910 (talk) 02:57, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Support as well. Do we have any other "similar" photos in the list? (clothed, no massive disfigurement, etc.)Naraht (talk) 14:41, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- I think you'll agree it's going to be pretty offensive if it's used in the wrong place (probably how it ended up here in the first place). Anyway, for reference it was added in 2020 by Malcolmxl5, so let's casually float the idea their way. -- zzuuzz (talk) 16:02, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- My memory of the summer of 2020 is pretty hazy but it’s likely it was being spammed across the encyclopedia by someone who thought it funny to do that. Perhaps they’ve gone away. Let’s remove it from the list and see. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 16:19, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- zzuuzz I think the difference with that one is that while there are a certain number of articles that Osama's face would be offensive on, for most of the images here, there are a certain number of articles that it would *not* be offensive on. For example, to pick a random image here, a photo of an inserted butt plug might be viewed as offensive on the page for M&T Bank Stadium (The stadium that the Baltimore Ravens play at) where Osama's face wouldn't be viewed in the same way. I don't know if there is anyway to *reverse* the Mediawiki tech to only ban it from a specific number of articles. In any case, I think we are on the same wavelength.Naraht (talk) 17:30, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Please exempt this img for profanity, where it is a good example of an obscene hand gesture. Thanks, Charlotte (Queen of Hearts • talk) 21:43, 18 September 2024 (UTC)

- I *really* don't expect this to be possible for the *Hundreds* of exceptions that would need to be made, with everything from lists of medalists in individual olympic sports where a citizen of Germany won a medal in the 1936 olympics to lists of Chancellors of Germany to all infoboxes of Battles that included the 3R. See https://linkcount.toolforge.org/?project=en.wikipedia.org&page=File%3AFlag+of+Germany+%281935%E2%80%931945%29.svg , that says used in 13,000 pages.Naraht (talk) 17:23, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
