Not an answer, but doesn't really fit in a comment. Glorfindel ran a script to find and try to repair/replace linked images. [His answer](https://meta.stackexchange.com/a/388726) includes a link to a (very long) output of results. Searching for "mathoverflow" jumps to the results for MathOverflow (and also meta.mathoverflow). Many images were successfully replaced. There are only a handful of uncertainties or failures. Here they are (I "snipped" out the successful replacements): ## mathoverflow.net ### Successful replacements [snip] ### Uncertainties | Frequency | URL | Replacement | Post IDs | |----------:|-----|-------------|----------| | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/KFkbXCz.gif | Not uploaded but archived as https://web.archive.org/web/20230503101817/https://i.imgur.com/KFkbXCz.gif | 291829 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/p7zUONx.gif | Not uploaded but archived as https://web.archive.org/web/20230503101846/https://i.imgur.com/p7zUONx.gif | 375339 | ### Failures | Frequency | URL | Failure | Post IDs | |----------:|-----|---------|----------| | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/76yeO.png | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Invalid Content-Type application/octet-stream returned for https://web.archive.org/web/20150427162752///i.imgur.com/76yeO.png | 39637 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/7ctju.gif | Not found in Wayback Machine. | 30136 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/Gnpdn.png | Not found in Wayback Machine. | 25897 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/RleJK.png | Not found in Wayback Machine. | 30136 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/bj5zs.png | Not found in Wayback Machine. | 30136 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/cZKaB.gif | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Broken image, an error image is served instead. | 24272 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/pChFw.png | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Broken image, an error image is served instead. | 56138 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/xAZZb.png | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Broken image, an error image is served instead. | 38236 | | 1 | https://imgur.com/F1x6j.png | ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Not found in Wayback Machine. | 35780 | | 1 | https://imgur.com/drlwRgv | DownloadFailedException: Image not found on imgur image page. | 168300 | | 1 | https://imgur.com/xjxWV.gif | ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Not found in Wayback Machine. | 24272 | ## meta.mathoverflow.net ### Successful replacements [snip] ### Failures | Frequency | URL | Failure | Post IDs | |----------:|-----|---------|----------| | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/76yeO.png | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Invalid Content-Type application/octet-stream returned for https://web.archive.org/web/20150427162752///i.imgur.com/76yeO.png | 5551 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/cZKaB.gif | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Broken image, an error image is served instead. | 5551 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/pChFw.png | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Broken image, an error image is served instead. | 5551 | | 1 | https://i.imgur.com/xAZZb.png | com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Broken image, an error image is served instead. | 5551 | | 1 | http://imgur.com/ | ProcessImageException: com.stackexchange.toolbox.editor.DownloadFailedException: Invalid Content-Type text/html returned for https://web.archive.org/web/20230509011314/https://imgur.com/ | 773 | Here is my attempt to make easier links to the MO and meta.MO posts (some of them have several broken/missing images, I just put one link for each post): 1. https://mathoverflow.net/questions/168300 2. https://mathoverflow.net/questions/24272 3. https://mathoverflow.net/questions/25897 4. https://mathoverflow.net/questions/291829 5. https://mathoverflow.net/questions/30136 6.
