Image uploads
When uploading images, please ensure that you put a proper citation, license, etc on them. This means listing the episode that they are from, listing the specific comic they are from (for the two uniform examples you uploaded), and so forth. For more details, please see our image use policy. Thank you. -- sulfur 14:45, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for doing the leg work for me. I had only looked at a screen cap, not a comic and of course the level of detailed info required for comics is not present there. My apologies, I now see the proper format as well as the proper copyright notice. I thought the upload form I filled out itself provided all the necessary data. Thanks!--Dogg 16:21, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
There are still a few that need information. Specifically File:CommandWork.jpg, File:TOSmid23rdInsignias.jpg, File:TOSInsignias2254.jpg, and File:TOSInsignias2265.jpg. A good example for the last three of these would be to use the layout/style of File:A.I. Starfleet CAPT.png as your basis for detail. -- sulfur 16:34, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
- Yes thanks, I'm working on those. There are a couple of screen shots not identified either ... will get to all of them, now that I see how they are formatted. Thanks for your help.--Dogg 16:36, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
The Cage division patches
Hello, I've noticed you've posted to a number of talk pages about division patches from "The Cage". If you're looking for comments, it might help if you create a forum topic on the subject to provide a central location for people to discuss the issue, since right now the info is spread out over several talk pages, and as such is a bit hard to follow overall. Using the forum when suggesting changes to multiple pages is also the suggested method for a discussion. - Archduk3 01:19, November 17, 2012 (UTC)
