Category:Articles with missing files

Here are some tips for assisting with clearing the backlog:
 * Check the history of the article. An article may have had a redlinked image added recently in which case it can be rolled back or undone. If detected the MediaWiki software will use a tag in the edit history.
 * Use tools like Wiki File Helper to view a file's past history on en.wp and commons to see if deleted.
 * Sometimes the hidden category flag is not cleared if images are added that are used by a template. Doing a null edit to the article clears the flag.
 * When removing an image from an infobox template be sure to remove the caption as well. There is no guarantee that a replacement image would use the same caption.
 * Road shield related images will often add numerous amounts of pages to this category. Please request any US shields at WP:USRD/S/R and any shields for the rest of the world at WP:HWY/RM.
 * Templates in Category:Templates with missing files can add large numbers of articles to this category – As of 16 March 2019 there were 0 templates with missing files and the current number is .
