Image spamming
Do not spam unrelated images over pages. Please look at similar pages to see how the images should be set up. 02:39, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

I was adding completely relevant images along with the wording. I was not spamming anything. I have been watching this show since I was seven or eight years old, why would I try to ruin it?
 * Mimi is not a Digimon, nor is she a crest. Therefore, images of crests and Digimon are irrelevant to her page, especially if thrown on the page with no contextual discussion in the text, and throwing them directly in the middle of a sentence. Again, please look at featured pages to see how articles should be set up.
 * Furthermore, we already had higher-quality versions of all the images you uploaded. Please remember to verify that the images you upload are actually needed before you add them.192.249.47.165 13:24, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

They are relevant because I put them where it said Palmon and Crest of Sincerity. They are completely relevant to the text.
 * That doesn't mean that the section was about Palmon or the Crest, or that those images clarified the article.
 * Arg. Since you are refusing to see reason, I'll put this another way: what you did, whether you agree or not, is considered spam on this wiki. Do not do it again, or you can recieve demerits. 19:16, July 12, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not a moron, it's not spamming, and I am not saying that I am going to do it again. I think you are just obnoxious and you seem to think that you are better than everyone. This website is made for everyone to make contributions and make things better but you seem to think that everything should be your way. You are ridiculous.
 * Just so that everything's clear, and we don't have any more problems:


 * It's considered spamming on this wiki.
 * Don't do it again.
 * Even when you're not spamming, don't place images in the middle of a bloody sentence.
 * This wiki is not a free-for-all for everyone to make edits, it is a place for responsible editors to improve the quality of the wiki's coverage of the Digimon franchise.
 * As long as you understand that, then we're all good, and you won't get any demerits. 20:10, July 12, 2011 (UTC)
 * If it helps, I was going to revert the edits as well if Kryten didn't get to them. Rule of thumb: an image should add to the page's content otherwise it's spam.  The images you added cluttered the page, made it hard to read, and added absolutely nothing to the content, which was about the human characters, not their Digimon.

It's not even so much what happened at this point, it's the way things are being said and the way they were handled. I am not stupid, and I am perfectly capable of reading. I do not need someone to keep repeating something incessantly. I don't like the way it was handled and it severely frustrates me that I uploaded images to have them deleted because I didn't look to see if they were there. Yes I searched them and they did not pop up, no I did not go through 6000 images to make absolute sure because I have better things to do. Yes I posted them in the middle of sentences they don't show up in the middle they go to the sides so that doesn't make too much of a difference. I don't really care that it was deleted anymore, I just think the way it was handled from that point on was very rude and childish by threatening me with demerits when I never tried to argue I was going to post them again. I never said anything about that. I just questioned why and for what reasons.
 * You were told that if you continued to spam images, you would receive demerits. You were told that after you argued twice that you were completely justified in adding them, and each time I replied, I tried to explain the situation politely, without directly jumping to "what you did was stupid, it made a mess of the wiki, and you'll get blocked if you continue". You are the one who pushed the matter, and you have only yourself to blame for the topic of demerits coming up.
 * You also did not question why they were removed, or for what reasons, despite your claim to have done so. Not only is that not what you did first, you have yet to do it at all. Instead, each time you asserted that they were not spam (despite me saying that regardless of what you believed, the policies of the wiki itself consider them spam), and that they were absolutely relevant to the article (despite me explaining what the wiki considers relevant to the articles).
 * You coded them poorly. Where they show up is not an excuse -- the way you posted them makes it difficult for editors to write the actual relevant text of the article. Image code should never be inserted into the middle of a paragraph.
 * The images show up on the first relevant pages you would find them. For example, Crest, or Agumon (Adventure). Or, if you did an image search for "Agumon". Don't claim you searched and didn't see them if they would be the first result you would get. In fact, the SkullGreymon image you uploaded uses name syntax that it would only have if you downloaded the image from a wiki where it was already uploaded.
 * If you truly believe that you were completely polite from the beginning, and that it was I that blew it out of hand, you need to look at your initial reply again -- it was incredibly rude.
 * My initial advice stands -- before uploading new images to pages, please look at similar pages, and see how they use images. This wiki does not encourage turning the articles into image galleries, and quite a bit of discernment is required before adding them to pages. 03:55, July 13, 2011 (UTC)
