The Photographer's Barnstar | |
For you contributions of dozens of images of almost all of the top NHRA drivers of all-time, numerous Formula One images, and several airplane images, I hereby award you the Photographer's barnstar. Thank you for tremendous contributions from your flickr account and welcome to Wikipedia! Royalbroil 05:36, 25 January 2008 (UTC) |
- Ditto. Thanks a bunch. If you've got anything of customs, put 'em up here, will you? The ones left there (those that haven't been taken down...) are mostly mine. I'd personally love to see Pete Chapouris' California Kid & the Hirohata Merc, for starters... TREKphiler hit me ♠ 00:16, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Adding images
[edit]The easiest way to figure out images is to go to a page that has an image and edit it by clicking on the "edit this page" tab on the top of the article. A window opens up with the text. You can see the code for the article. Here's the basics: you link to another article by adding 2 opening square brackets "[" before and 2 closing square brackets "]" after the text you wish to link. It varies how to add an image to an infobox so I won't give you directions for now. Maybe you could point out the article name and image name, then I will add it and display the code for you. For regular images that are not placed in an article, you add a line of text with this form: [[Image:imagename.jpg|thumb|right|description]] where imagename.jpg is the name of the image and description is a description of the image. Good luck!
I just started the article Al Hofmann which includes 2 of your images. I'm sure that you have a lot to add to his article. Make sure that you only add what you can verify with reliable sources and make sure that you include them. I'm watching the article, so please edit it even if you don't understand the linking to other articles. I'll can clean it up later, including the sources. Royalbroil 05:45, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks
[edit]Thanks to your images and your off-Wiki peer review of the article, the Eddie Hill article is now a Good Article! Royalbroil 01:11, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
Best by request
