I have noticed this problem multiple times before and wiki users keep asking why they can't see some of the images. The problem is that some files and thumbnails are stored within a folder that is called "ad" and most ad blockers just see the /ad/ in the file path and block it. While it is easy to set up those programs to not block "ads" from the site in question, it is still annoying and not really a good solution when looking at new users (which might just think that it's broken).
So if it is possible I would like to request that in future MW versions file folders with the name "ad" are no longer created. It should be easy to prevent that name from being used and probably helps a lot of people.
