MediaWiki talk:Bad image list
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. Consider announcing discussions you add here at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical) to bring more people to the discussion. |

Hi can use this file File:Flag of Hezbollah.svg on Template:Country data Hezbollah ? VNW060222 (talk) 09:02, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- No. The image isn't a free image, so its use is subject to Wikipedia:Non-free content, which says explicitly "Non-free content is allowed only in articles (not disambiguation pages), and only in the article namespace". Animal lover |666| 14:11, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

- @Jarble we generally do not add exceptions unless there is actually a desire to use particular images in an article. Simply the possibility that they might be useful isn't sufficient. Elli (talk | contribs) 15:15, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Elli: I didn't know that we had such a rule; why are we not allowed to add exceptions for images on articles where they are relevant and potentially useful, but not currently in use? Jarble (talk) 15:28, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- Because it's pointless and a waste of effort. If you want to use the images in the article, you can request them. If not, then why bother? Elli (talk | contribs) 15:30, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
