Description

When using the API to get the images in the page, we get all the images, including the ones that are only there for templates purposes. For example here, we get small arrows, little flags, city locators...

The Mediaviewer allows to filter these out by using the class noviewer (the images with this class do not appear in the Mediaviewer. It would be great to be able to exclude these files out in the API too with a new parameter.

HTML classes on an image are not stored in the imagelinks table, so it's not possible for the API to do this. You'd first have to change MediaWiki to begin storing this information.
