Wikimedia Commons has media related to Gallery pages with broken file links.
![]() | This category has a backlog that requires the attention of willing editors. This notice will hide itself when this category has fewer than 100 items. ( ) |
![]() | This category is not shown on its member pages unless the appropriate user preference (appearance → show hidden categories) is set. |
![]() | Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time. |
Here are some tips for assisting with clearing the backlog:
- Check the history of the article. An article may have had a redlinked image added recently in which case it can be rolled back or undone. If detected the MediaWiki software will use a tag in the edit history.
- Use tools like Wiki File Helper to view a file's past history on en.wp and commons to see if deleted.
- Sometimes the hidden category flag is not cleared if images are added that are used by a template. Doing a null edit to the article clears the flag.
- When removing an image from an infobox template be sure to remove the caption as well. There is no guarantee that a replacement image would use the same caption.
- Road shield related images will often add numerous pages to this category. Please request any US shields at Justapedia:USRD/S/R and any shields for the rest of the world at Justapedia:HWY/RM.
- If an image is called by an intricate template, and the image is deleted on Commons, it may be a good idea to JP:HIDE the template and hope the image can be uploaded locally under fair use, see example below.c:File:Guangzhou Metro icon.svg was deleted on Commons 11 July 2021. The file is
a. Called by {{Rail-interchange}}, and
b. Called by {{Infobox station}}
and resulted in 300+ articles showing up here in CAT:MISSFILE.
In case a. instead of finding instances of{{rint|guangzhou|metro}}
and deleting them, opt for hiding them:<!-- {{rint|guangzhou|metro}} -->
and use an edit summary like:Hiding {{rint|guangzhou|metro}} for now, [[c:File:Guangzhou Metro icon.svg]] was [[:c:Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:SVG logos of China|deleted on Commons]]. Could a substitute be uploaded locally?
Case a. example in Special:Diff/1032052729/1033227215
Using JP:AWB or JP:JWB in such a case saves a lot of time.
In case b. instead of finding instances of| symbol_location = guangzhou
and| symbol = metro
and deleting their values, opt for hiding them:<!-- | symbol_location = guangzhou -->
and<!-- | symbol = metro -->
and use an edit summary like:Hiding symbol_location and symbol in the infobox for now as they depend on [[c:File:Guangzhou Metro icon.svg]] that was [[:c:Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:SVG logos of China|deleted on Commons]]. Could a substitute be uploaded locally?
Case b. example in Special:Diff/1033227215/1033244213. - Templates in Category:Templates with missing files can add large numbers of articles to this category – As of 25 July 2021 there were 0 templates with missing files and the current number is 99.
- Last fully cleared: 4 November 2022
