Hi mango,
The system actually already auto-hides (from everywhere) programs that contain generated images, since users are not supposed to be using images in their programs from sources outside of KA or Wikimedia Commons. We do occasionally make exceptions to this if the image is used in a legitimate way, such as for sprites in a game, as long as the image isn't copyrighted.
Some users, however, have figured out how to circumvent the auto-hiding process, which is why you may occasionally see programs that use custom images. If you happen to come across these programs, please flag them so our moderation team can review them.
I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any additional questions!
Thanks for responding!
RE: system autohides them:
Ah, okay. A lot of images seem to get onto the Hot List; I guess there’s just a lot of users circumventing the auto-hiding haha. Would it be possible for the system to check for the links every time a program is saved, rather than just when it’s created (since the main/only circumvention technique i know of is removing the link then adding it back in after)?
RE: please flag:
Alright, will do.
I'm sure it would be possible to do that, and I'll pass this idea along, but that would likely require an engineering change. Due to the other large projects going on right now, this isn't something that is likely to be prioritized anytime soon. In the meantime the best option is to continue flagging these projects.
