FrescoBot is a Bot and is fixing several problems also within image galleries.

Syntax issues

• images inserted in the gallery with standard markup using square brackets (eg. [1], [2])
• nonexistent parameters like thumb, left, right, upright, size, etc. File:Imagename.jpg|left|Description --> File:Imagename.jpg|Description (example)
• empty and completely redundant gallery tags like <gallery></gallery><gallery>... --> <gallery>... (example)
• multiple pipe characters after the filename [3]
• missing pipe character after the filename [4]
• captions as image parameters [5]
• categories mistakenly inserted in dummy galleries ([6])

HTML tags problems

• tags not closed [7] [8]
• pointless br tags at the end of the line [9]
• center tags without any content [10]
• center tags around galleries in packed mode [11]
• closing tags without the open tag [12]
• other less common problems with tags

Dummy caption

• it will blank common dummy captions (eg. Add caption here) [13] [14]

Duplicate images

• duplicate images in the same gallery with the same description (eg. [15], [16])

Nonexistent images

• lines without any valid image name (like this one this one or this one)
• before removing any suspect invalid image the bot will check for the existence of the file
• if the file apparently does not exist then it will try to fix some common mistakes like a missing/extra | at the end/beginning of the filename [17] [18]

User signatures

• unexpanded user signatures (3 or more tildes within the galleries) [19]

Magic words

• unexpanded magic words [20]

Invisibile characters

• other invisible control characters (from U+2027 to U+202F) in the filename area
