MediaWiki talk:Bad image list

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. If the file in question has no foreseeable good faith use, consider nominating it for deletion rather than requesting its addition to this list.
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.

This page was nominated for deletion on 2006-02-16. The result of the discussion was keep.

Addition request

Hi, File:Piledriver Sex Position V1.jpg, with exception I guess for articles such as Sex position.

(The image was used inappropriately on Wikidata not long ago. I know that this list doesn't affect other projects; this is just FYI).
