Template:Blur image

{{blur image}} is a template used to blur images when they contain NSFW material.

Basic usage

To blur a standard image, use the following syntax:

{{blur image|image embedding code as normal|NSFW material contained in the image}}

For example:

{{blur image|[[File:Jenny Everywhere in Soulless Mate - Colourised.png|thumb|left|Example]]|nothing - this is just an example}}

This gives:

Example

Note that this only works for thumbnails - that is, images that have "thumb" in their embed code.

Galleries

It is also possible to use this template to blur entire galleries (although partially blurring galleries is not currently possible). To do so, use the following syntax:

{{blur image|
gallery code as normal
|NSFW material contained in the gallery's images
|gallery}}

For example:

{{blur image|
<gallery>
Jenny Everywhere in Soulless Mate - Colourised.png|Example image 1
Jenny Nowhere (Tales to Behold).png|Example image 2
Jenny Anywhere in Jenny Everywhere and Friends.png|Example image 3
Laura Drake by Aristide Twain.png|Example image 4
</gallery>
|nothing - this is just an example
|gallery}}

This gives:

• 

  Example image 1

• 

  Example image 2

• 

  Example image 3

• 

  Example image 4

File pages

Bluring images on their own file page is a little different. To do so, place the {{NSFW image}} somewhere on the file page. This will also produce a warning with instructions on how to correctly use the image on pages.

For example:

{{NSFW image|nothing - this is just an example}}

This gives:

WARNING: This image may contain some mature or NSFW material. Click it to unblur. Expand to view information about using this image on pages.
Some stories covered by this Wiki feature material that may be considered mature, NSFW, or otherwise inappropriate for some audiences. Sensitive images such as this should always be blurred by default. This is done using {{blur image}}. For example: {{blur image|[[Template:Blur image|thumb|235px|left|Caption text]]|nothing - this is just an example}}

Infoboxes

Bluring images in infoboxes is also a little different. To do so, add the line "|blur=blur", exactly as given here, to the infobox. This will cause the image in the infobox to be blurred. It is not currently possible to specify the NSFW content that appears in the image.

For example:

{{character
|title1=Example
|image1=Jenny Everywhere in Soulless Mate - Colourised.png
|blur=blur
}}

This gives the infobox to the right.

Technical details

This template is powered by MediaWiki:Gadget-BlurImages.css and MediaWiki:Gadget-BlurImages.js which are both applied via a gadget. As such, image bluring can be disabled on a per-user basis via the "Gadgets" tab of Special:Preferences.
