Line 642:
# In [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Captions#Special situations|most cases]], images should include a [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Captions|caption]] using the built-in image syntax. The caption should concisely describe the meaning of the image and the essential information it is trying to convey.
# Avoid using images in place of [[MOS:DTAB|tables or charts]]. Where possible, any charts or diagrams should have a text equivalent or should be well-described so that users who are unable to see the image can gain some understanding of the concept.
# Avoid [[MOS:IMAGELOCATION|sandwiching]] text between two images or, unless absolutely necessary, using [[Wikipedia:Image use policy#Displayed image size|fixed image sizes]].
# Avoid indiscriminate [[WP:GALLERY|galleries]] because screen size and browser formatting may affect accessibility for some readers due to fragmented image display. Articles with many images will time out on mobile versions of Wikipedia. Ideally, a page should have no more than 100 images (regardless of how small). See [[mediawikiwiki:Recommendations for mobile friendly articles on Wikimedia wikis#Limit number of images in a page|MediaWiki:Limit number of images in a page]]
