Some
[[Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not censored|Wikipedia is not censored]], meaning that content is not removed simply because some find it objectionable. [[Wikipedia:No disclaimers in articles|No specific disclaimers are placed on articles]] to warn readers about potentially sensitive content. All articles fall under Wikipedia’s [[Wikipedia:Content disclaimer|Content disclaimer]], which applies site-wide.
However, readers who wish to prevent certain images from displaying have options to customize their experience.
This page is more suitable for you if:
# you still want to visit Wikipedia (rather than creating a [[Fork (software development)|fork]] or simply staying away) and,
# you find an image offensive but, apart from your perception of its offensiveness, have nothing more to add, within the premises of Wikipedia policies, to the discussions pertaining to replacement or [[Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion|removal]] of images by building [[WP:CONSENSUS|consensus]].
Wikipedia readers can influence how Wikipedia content is displayed on their screens in two ways:
#By [[Wikipedia:Creating an account|creating an account]] and reading Wikipedia while logged in. Logged-in users can use personal [[Help:Cascading Style Sheets|Cascading Style Sheets]] (CSS) to display images selectively. See {{Section link|2=Wikipedia user preferences|nopage=y}}.
#By filtering content locally, either by configuring their [[web browser]] (including the possibility to display no images at all), or by setting up a [[proxy server|proxy]] (such as [[Privoxy]]). See {{Section link|2=Configure your browser|nopage=y}}.

===Hide all images until they are clicked on===
▲[[File:Battenburg-white-blue.svg|thumb|All images will be replaced by this [[Battenburg markings|Battenburg pattern]] placeholder image, until you click on them
You can install a user script called [[User:Anomie/hide-images]] which replaces all images with a placeholder image. Clicking the placeholder image will reveal the original image. To hide images in this fashion, install the required user script by following the directions below:
{{ctop|title=Instructions for installation}}
First, copy the following text below to your [[Special:MyPage/common.js|common.js]] page:
Line 23 ⟶ 39:
<syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>@import url('//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?action=raw&title=User:Anomie/hide-images.css&ctype=text/css');</syntaxhighlight>
{{cbot}}
▲To reveal and display an individual image on a Wikipedia page, simply click on the checkerboard pattern. You can simply reload the page in order to re-hide the images. To turn this entire feature off, simply undo the changes you made when you followed the instructions above.
===Disable images on specific pages===
{{ctop|title=Instructions
To
<syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>.page-(
Where you'll replace
For example, to disable images from automatically displaying on the [[Muhammad]] article, your addition will look like this: <syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>.page-Muhammad img {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight>
If the page name includes spaces or punctuation marks,
{| class="wikitable"
▲If the page name includes spaces or punctuation marks, use underscores instead. An example is below:
! Page name !! {{ya}} Correct !! {{na}} Incorrect
|-
| [[Muhammad (name)]] || <syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>.page-Muhammad_name img {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight> || <syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>.page-Muhammad (name) img {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight>▼
|-
| ''[[Did Muhammad Exist?]]'' || <syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>.page-Did_Muhammad_Exist img {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight> || <syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>.page-Did_Muhammad_Exist? img {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight>
|}
Create a newline, with the same code for each page you'd like to disable images on.
▲<syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>.page-Muhammad (name) img {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight>
{{cbot}}
Line 52 ⟶ 69:
You can also disable specific images by individual filename. To enable this option, follow the instructions listed below:
{{ctop|title=Instructions
<syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>body a[href="/wiki/File:(file name)"] {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight>
Where you'll replace
<syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>body a[href="/wiki/File:Silver-service-star.png"] {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight>
Line 67 ⟶ 84:
<syntaxhighlight lang="css" inline>body a[href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:(file name)"] {display: none;}</syntaxhighlight>
Where, again, you'll replace

==Use a proxy filter==
You can selectively block content by using a [[web filter]] program. Freely available examples include [[Privoxy]] and [[DansGuardian]]. Once you have installed such a program, you can exert fine-grained control over what content is received by your web browser. This method can also be used for system administrators for schools and workplaces to restrict the access of potentially inappropriate images to students/employees. If you are using a URL based filter which also blocks images from a host, blocking Wikimedia will also block all images. Please note by doing this, some system icons on Wikipedia may no longer be visible as they are hosted on Wikimedia. Also any images from
