MediaViewer aims to improve the viewing experience for readers and casual editors on Wikipedia and Wikimedia sites. This new multimedia browser displays images in larger size, with useful information about their content, authors and related metadata. It also offers a number of features to enlarge, share, download or embed media files.

Known Issue

Some images that are low resolution do not load properly and create an error message when attempting to view in MediaViewer. This occurs with certain browsers, in particular Chrome and Edge.
