Image adding exercise


Here are some articles currently without images, for which we have suitable image(s) on Wikimedia Commmons. Please take a slip of paper with the article name on, to avoid two people trying to add an image to the same article. The printed word still has its uses.

Please do not add these images yourself - this is a training exercise for NEW editors only.

 * 2) Ark Academy
 * 3) Battersea Park Road railway station

Images added on 10 October 2017

 * 1) All Souls, St Margarets

 * 5) Falls of Turret
 * 6) Fulham Cemetery (image since moved to infobox - not enough time for me to explain this)

 * This exercise is based on User:WereSpielChequers/image adding, an original creation by User:WereSpielChequers.

Wakerley
Previouslyy, Wakerley provided an unexpected learning experience. One of our cohort added an image at 11:12. Then it disappeared. And a new one appeared! Wakerley must have been on someone's Watchlist, as it was deleted at 11:16, and the new image was added at 11:18. We learnt that there must be more than one place called Wakerley, how checking coordinates could have avoided this, and the value of watchlists.
