ALL POSTSPhotos module 
<p>The photos right rail module has been removed due to "very low interaction rates".
</p><p>I think that moving it below the chat and videos module didn't really help.
</p><p>I personally have the videos module completely hidden, and used the photos module as a quick way to notice when new photos are uploaded - in the same way that I use the recent activity module to quickly see when a page has been edited.
</p><p>Yes, I can still see both of these things by keeping Special:RecentChanges open, but both of those modules allowed me to easily keep tabs on activity while editing/browsing.
</p><p>While I didn't "interact" with it often, I "used" it daily.
</p><p>Does anyone else care about it being removed?
</p><p>(Even if you have nothing substantial to say, please feel free to add a "Me too" comment.)

<p>I noticed today everything in my 452 New Files module seemed way too big. It's always been the case that some images didn't go as small as I told it, but today they all were, even ones that were at the start of the day. It looks like there's been a change in the URL needed for thumbnail images--452's module does a replacement based on searching for the part of the URL that says "/scale-to-width/", but it seems now "/scale-to-width-down/" is used. I've just tested, and it seems simply adding the "-down" where applicable in the code makes it start behaving properly again.
</p><p>I think I also see why some images never resized down properly, too. Images that are already small enough (under 212 width?) Wikia doesn't use a "/scale-to-width-down/" in the image URL at all, so the search/replace in the module doesn't do anything with it. This can probably be fixed, too, but I don't have anything ready to show at this moment.
</p><p>EDIT: Well, that was pretty easy. Possibly it could be done more eloquently on a single line, but I just added another search/replace line to catch where no scaling was going on, too.
</p>
$('#gallery-', $temp).html($('#gallery-', $temp).html().replace(/\/scale-to-width-down\/\d*\?/g, "/scale-to-width-down/106?"));
$('#gallery-', $temp).html($('#gallery-', $temp).html().replace(/\/revision\/latest\?/g, "/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/106?"));

<p>Thanks for catching that, I'll look into when that was changed and update this comment with a note.
</p><p>It may have been a while ago and I just didn't notice.
</p>
<dl><dd>Edit: It appears that the change was made 5 days ago, so thanks again.
</dd></dl><p>Regarding images under 212 not being resized, I suspect you're also right about that, I'll do some further investigation into this also. I know I had tested with a few <100px images originally, but I may have never tested with images between 106 and 212.
</p>
<dl><dd>Edit: Totally.

<p>Apparently NewFilesModuleCount no longer works, because the number is now ignored.
</p><p>Where Special:NewFiles/1 would previously show the most recently uploaded file, Special:Images/1 shows the default 48.
</p><p>So much for attempting to reduce bandwidth.

<figcaption> </figcaption></figure><p>Has anyone else been having some strange behavior from NewFilesModule? I've got it in my global.js here at community.wikia, but it seems to behave inconsistenly at different wikis or sometimes even different pages on the same wiki. Sometimes there's just the one, behaving like it's supposed to. Sometimes there's a second one that says "New Files" with the Upload link, but doesn't actually show any pictures. I think I've been seeing this one a long time, but it was pretty small and easier to ignore than worry about. But now I've sometimes started seeing a <i>third</i> one that also doesn't show pictures, but has the additional property of seeming attached to the bottom of the Fandom bar (or where it <i>would</i> be, if it's not currently showing), so while scrolling down a page it just keeps following.

<p>Thanks for letting me know.
</p><p>I've made a couple of changes that I believe address this problem, but I forgot to update this thread, can you try the updated script and see if the problem goes away?

<p>It is best using c:dev:NewImages for now.

<figure class="article-thumb tright show-info-icon" style="width: 180px">
<figcaption> </figcaption></figure><p>Looks like it got rid of the doubling/tripling and the floating around, yes. However, it now also has the behavior of changing height when the mouse goes over it. I hadn't touched my copy of NewFilesModule in about two years so I'm not sure how long it's been like this. I modified my copy to be less tall than your default, but mouseover seems to make the image section go from height 200 to 356. Putting it back to your default height of 452 to test, it expands to 608, so in both cases gaining 156.

<p>Yes, that's been a feature since April 2015.
</p><p>To stop it doing that, remove this CSS:
</p>
#gallery-:hover { padding-bottom: 13em; }
<p>edit: Now that I think about it, I'm changing that to 100%, since expanding it to the screen size makes more sense.
