Line 642:
# 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]]
# Avoid placing images on the left hand side as a consistent left margin makes reading easier. See [[MOS:IMAGELOC]]
# Avoid referring in text to images as being on the left or right. Image placement may be different for viewers of the mobile site, and is meaningless to people having pages read to them by assistive software. Instead, use captions to identify images.
# Detailed image descriptions, where not appropriate for an article, should be placed on the image's description page, with a note saying that activating the image link will lead to a more detailed description. See {{Section link|Help:File description page#Image summary}}
