Thanks for adding photos to the Cary, NC article. You may not realize, but Wikipedia has guidelines about photos. WP:IMGCONTENT says "The purpose of an image is to increase readers' understanding of the article's subject matter, usually by directly depicting people, things, activities, and concepts described in the article. The relevant aspect of the image should be clear and central." As an example, your photo of the apartment complex does not have the relevant aspect--the building--clear and central. And MOS:IMAGERELEVANCE says "Images must be significant and relevant in the topic's context, not primarily decorative." So photos like the skyline or downtown at night probably should not be included. Placement is also important. A photo should be beside or as close as possible to text that it relates to. As an example, you placed one photo in the history section that does not relate to history. If you have any questions, please let me know. Also if you are wanting to add photos of Cary to Wikipedia, the high schools need photos==for example, Cary High School. Thanks. Rublamb ( talk) 15:37, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
@ Rublamb and DiscoA340: Bigfoot allgame, I'm concerned that you are using Wikipedia as a gallery for your low-quality photos. At Cary, North Carolina, you have been edit warring with three different editors in order to add a low-quality photo back into the article. Now I see you have reverted my edit at William B. Umstead State Park, so you can add back a photo of a rock. Please note that Wikipedia is not an image gallery, per WP:NOTGALLERY. If you want to add images, buy a better camera and take a lesson in photography. Please stop your disruptive editing. Magnolia677 ( talk) 10:11, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at
Cary, North Carolina. Your edits appear to be
disruptive and have been or will be
reverted.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Magnolia677 ( talk) 22:32, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Hi Bigfoot allgame! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of
Durham, North Carolina several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the
edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.
All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Durham, North Carolina, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. ~ ToBeFree ( talk) 23:23, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
