How to set up your Wikipedia account to not see images on a specific article

To disable the display of images for a specific article only, you must have an account. If you do not have an account, visit Special:Userlogin to create one. Once you have an account, you can disable the images on a specific page by changing your personal settings. This allows you to avoid images that offend you without affecting other users. To do this, create a page at Special:Mypage/monobook.css and add the following line:

body.page-(page name) img {display: none;}

e.g.

body.page-Muhammad img {display: none;}
