Images
Hi

Thanks for your efforts adding content to articles.

Unfortunately, just to let you know, I undid a couple of your image additions, because we don't generally place images in the lead section, like you did, pushing down the infobox and other content, and the additional pictures weren't necessary, as logos or relevant pics were already present in the infobox or elsewhere in the articles. Thanks. Begoon &thinsp; talk 10:36, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

And again
And yet, even after being asked not to, you're still putting pictures above the lead and infobox code, like you just did at HTC and Beko, pushing down the infobox and other content. Please don't. If the image is worth adding, then put it in the relevant section, please. If the HTC image had been worth adding, then the "products" section would have been the correct place for it. It wasn't worth adding, because it's a promotional shot, and anyone interested in the model can easily find the relevant article.

If there are no sections, like at Beko, consider whether it is worth adding the image at all - in this case it certainly wasn't - a picture of a washing machine like any other washing machine tells nobody anything at all about a company that made many products. We all know what a washing machine looks like.

Most of the images you have added have been removed - that should be a clue that other editors haven't found them helpful in adding to or improving the articles.

So two things, really, of equal importance:
 * 1) Don't add images just to "decorate" articles. Think about whether they really add anything to the reader's understanding of the article. If in doubt, don't add them - or ask on the talk page.
 * 2) If you are going to add an image, after proper consideration, don't just plonk it at the top of the page. Think about the placement. If you can't decide where to put it - well, that's maybe a clue it's not needed.

If you don't think about these things then it just means somebody else needs to come along and fix them. Thanks. Begoon &thinsp; talk 13:24, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
