Npc image on quest article[edit]

Hi. As a rule of thumb we usually don't put images of individual npcs into quest (or zones) articles unless there is a good reason for doing so (like, being strictly needed for information purposes). You can find more about this in the guidelines section.
Also, when naming images for adding them to articles, please remember to make them easily identifyable. "travel.jpg" is not really a good choice for maintenance purposes, so a name like "The Duke's Daughter map.jpg" would be a better option. You can rename images at the moment you are uploading them to the wiki.--Fighterdoken 22:00, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Heya, I see what you are trying to do, and I think I have done it. The map image should be included as part of the infobox, and needs to be named properly, so here's how it would be added to the page:
{{Quest infobox
| name = The Duke's Daughter
| map = [[Image:The Dukes Daughter map.jpg|200px]]
| campaign = Prophecies
| region = Ascalon
| type = Secondary
| given by = [[Viggo]]
| given at = [[Piken Square]]
| preceded by =
| followed by = [[Althea's Ashes]]
}}
I reuploaded after I cropped it down and gave it the proper name. --Wyn's Talk page Wyn 22:06, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
BTW, dont' get frustrated, every contribution is valuable, and appreciated. I know it takes awhile to figure out how to do it right, and you have everyone telling you you're doing it wrong. The fastest way to learn is to do, and I at least will try to help explain. --Wyn's Talk page Wyn 22:09, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

Images[edit]

Images to be used in articles on this wiki, need to be uploaded to this wiki and NOT to http://commons.wikimedia.org/, you should read GWW:IMAGES for advice on image use and uploading.
In all likelihood, the image you uploaded to http://commons.wikimedia.org/ will get marked for deletion since it is not used on wikimedia itself. To that end, and also since there was a map already in the quest's infobox, I have reverted your changes to Straight to the Top --BramStoker (talk, contribs) 01:45, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
