:Also, you uploaded most of your pics twice under very similar file names. I've added to be deleted tags to the versions you didn't use on the BotCon '97 page. Your contribution of these images is appreciated, just slow down and make sure you have everything ready. [[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 20:36, 12 February 2010 (EST)

::Yeah, I didn't think those went through at first. It's my first time. Be gentle. BTW, how do I credit sources for these? Most of these are from my personal pics but how do I credit an image to the proper artist? In this case, Andrew Wildman?

:::Place Images by Andrew Wildman between two pairs of brackets [[ ]] to credit the artist. Also write a short description of the picture. Something like "Photo of BotCon '97 t-shirt with art by Andrew Wildman." Also, note how I've added colons to your post and mine to indent the responses. This helps others follow your conversation more easily. Finally, end your posts with four tildes (they look like this ~ ), this adds your user name and the date/time to your post. Not trying to yell at you, just a few friendly suggestions.[[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 20:50, 12 February 2010 (EST)

::::Are you talking about putting the description in the Summary box when I first upload? Same with the artist credit? Also, I didn't think you were yelling. It was a joke. Apparently, not a good one.[[User:Star Saber|Star Saber]] 20:59, 12 February 2010 (EST)

:::::I didn't think you thought I was yelling, just making sure that I didn't come off that way. Yes, you can do all that when you first upload the image, or you can edit the image's page afterwards. [[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 21:01, 12 February 2010 (EST)

Could you also use more descriptive filenames and at least insert the links? "Kayesari" is barely descriptive - "BC08 Kaye with Sari's hair" is MUCH more descriptive - and just a "BC08" is understandable but it's better with "BotCon 2008" being used and linked to its page. --[[User:Lonegamer78|Lonegamer78]] 02:50, 18 February 2010 (EST)

: *Sigh* I've already done that in the Summary box. Do you really think it's necessary in the filename as well? Sure, I can do it but it seems so redundant. {{unsigned|68.217.1.132}}
::Well, there are reasons we have [[Transformers Wiki:Images#Image_naming|an image naming policy]]. :) --[[User:Abates|abates]] 04:24, 18 February 2010 (EST)

I am impressed by your knowledge of these earlier conventions. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 03:32, 11 October 2010 (EDT)
:Well, I've been to all but the first three and last two and I've kept excellent notes on each trip. Also, I used to keep a lot of other people's "BotCon Reports" in the early days so I'd know what I missed. [[Special:Contributions/67.33.160.236|67.33.160.236]]
