WPWPNG +IMAGE
Hi. Please STOP adding new images to new articles and START adding proper captions to the images you have already inserted. If not, I will have to roll back all the images you have inserted. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 22:50, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Please take this seriously. Drmies (talk) 23:50, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
 * And in particular, Wikipedia does not use cartoons as images for real people. There is a very clear consensus against doing this .  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  13:17, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello, Please can you tell me what I've done wrong and what I am expected to do because I always add a very clear caption which is WPWPNG+IMAGE. Please I need you urgent response.￼ Abex123456 (talk) 13:53, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Please read the discussion that SMcCandlish linked. "WPWPNG+IMAGE" is NOT a caption, it's an edit summary. If you do not understand what I mean with "caption" you should not be adding images. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 15:54, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

I am kind of sad that I have to explain what an image needs. This one needs a name (really all of them need a name, if only out of politeness) and a date: when you're dealing with people, it's helpful if not mandatory to put a date for the image so the reader can contextualize--a date and possibly the event. This is not a picture of French film director: it's a tombstone. This can do with a name and a date, and it really needs the name of the artist, Leopold Schmutzler. This is a picture of TWO people, so they need to be identified--and this image is not from the set of Q & Q or Bassie & Adriaan--I know because I watched those shows when I was a kid, and the description on Commons explains what it is, and when it was taken.I asked you yesterday to stop doing what you were doing, but you didn't--instead of asking for clarification or, better yet, figuring out what "caption" means, you went and made dozens more edits. I hope you understand this now--and I hope that you see that when other editors/administrators raise questions about your editing, it's a good idea to listen to them first before continuing in the same way.

 * Thank you so much for your explanation, I now understand you better. I didn't do that purposely. I read the message late. it was after I finished some editing I got the message on my mail. I didn't do that intentionally and I'm so sorry for that.
 * OK--thanks. Good luck, Drmies (talk) 16:14, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

Anna Krauss
Hi, Saw your work. Its excellent that your adding images to articles. I do the same thing and its really worth it. However, you need to more discerning in what your added. This image on the Anna Krauss I had to remove because it is a post torture photo taken by the Gestapo. It is evident on the image. The women has two black eyes where she has been punched. You need to look at the image and see if it suitable. As background, I worked on all the Red Orchestra articles and wrote this article. When I was working, I found out where these images came from. They are really dire. Unfortunately we seem to pick up some of the kind of stuff. Please be careful. Thanks.  scope_creep Talk  20:53, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
