article_namespace == 0 & !("autoconfirmed" in user_groups) & lcase(added_lines) rlike "\[\[\s*(file:|image:)\s*example.(jpg|png|gif|svg|ogg)"
article_namespace == 0 & !("autoconfirmed" in user_groups) & lcase(added_lines) rlike "\[\[\s*(file:|image:)\s*example.(jpg|png|gif|svg|ogg)"
Notes:
Example images/sounds should never be placed in article space. It's a somewhat frequent mistake made by noobs, since the JPG image is the example inserted by default when a user clicks the "embedded file" or "picture gallery" buttons in the edit toolbar. Definitely should not disallow, we could keep out good edits just because they happen to contain an example image. Tag instead. - KoH This is more likely to scare newbies off then encourage them to fix the edits. They (or other editors) will likely remove the example image from the article upon seeing it. Disabled. --Reaper 2014-01-02 Unregistering the tag "test edits", replace it if this gets reactivated. - Cen Deleting, superseded by [[Special:AbuseFilter/631]] ~MA 2016.06.13
