How about just .unrelated? Simple to understand, following the criteria you just mentioned. More human readable than something more technically correct such as .nommw

.not-multimedia
or maybe reverse the logic and only allow tagged items to appear in media viewer
.multimedia

Hi all,
We would appreciate your help to come up with a class name that
community members can use to exclude an image from Media Viewer or related tools.
Too many small files (like icons, flags, etc.) appear in Media Viewer
for some articles, even though they are unrelated to the topic of the article. Other image files also need to be excluded, because they are not suitable for Media Viewer (such as maps using weird CSS/JS tricks, or images which use a clipping template).
Many community members have reported this issue, which delivers an
unpleasant browsing experience for users who only want to view images that are relevant for the article they are reading (and which are supported by Media Viewer).
We agree that this is an important issue. The most practical way to
address it would require editors to add a .metadata class to the images they don’t want to show on a page, as proposed here:
https://wikimedia.mingle.thoughtworks.com/projects/multimedia/cards/511
We just need to come up with a class name people are happy with for
excluding an image from Media Viewer or related tools. We already exclude images which have a .metadata class, but there are images that aren't really metadata but still not appropriate.
Any ideas? What class name do you recommend we use to convey this
important information?
Here are some possible ideas, to get this conversation started;
- hide
- exclude
- noshow
- ??
It would be best if we agreed on a name that is not tied to Media
Viewer, so it can be used by other tools which may have the same needs, now or in the future.
Once we settle on a class name, we can schedule that feature for
development, so editors can filter out unsuitable images for everyone’s viewing pleasure :)
Thanks for your feedback!
