Is this about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chippendale_Society? The images on that page display fine for me.

Can you upload a screenshot here (use the button on the comment field toolbar), so that we can see what you're seeing?

What do you see when trying to view these pages?:

Hi - thanks for getting back so quickly. I can see both your pasted
files and both images when I click the links below. I cannot use your
screenshot tool, can't find comment field), so I've used another tool
capture what I'm seeing - attached. Its curious that where the banner
should be there is the text "Panorama of city with mixture of five to
ten story buildings" - what's that about? The jpg is of a banner,
nothing to do with "city" etc.

Thanks again

Hmm. So you can view the images themselves, but not on the page? Weird. Perhaps it's a misconfigured browser extension blocking them (AdBlock or something similar)? What browser are you using?

It was a mistake in the article, presumably copy-pasted from somewhere. Fixed: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Chippendale_Society&diff=740006179&oldid=739842021

Hmm, a similar issue was reported here, apparently: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Images_not_displaying.

There were issues this morning around that hour. Should be fixed now.

Yaaay thanks all - just tried and its fine.

Scary business lol - I thought I might have caught something :)

Thanks again

Mark

Erm.... Hi Aklapper - can you explain to me what you just did? I really
want to understand - what does it mean when you say "article do not
load" I expect it is no more than a technicality but if someone is going
to directly influence the article outside of the standard architecture I
really want to understand why.

With thanks

Mark

I edited the summary of this task to describe more clearly what this task is/was about.
See T145969#2646634 :)

Also wondering if T144257 might be related here...
