Hi, re
this edit - thanks for the image, but I've had to fix it up a bit. The thing is, using the "thumb" option on an image puts an extra frame around it, which we don't do within infoboxes (they already have an outer frame). The {{
Infobox UK station}}
template has several parameters for images: these do include |image=
, but the ones most commonly used are |image_name=
and |caption=
, and I have amended the article to use these,
see here. --

Hi, me again: re
this - partly right. Removal of the {{
reqphoto|transport|in=Cheshire|of=the entrance of the station or a station sign}}
was valid, because it didn't form part of a discussion (see
WP:TPO), but there is another thing that would normally have been done too. At the top of the page you will see two lines beginning {{
WikiProject Cheshire}}
and {{
TrainsWikiProject}}
- these are
WikiProject banners, and they often contain a marker denoting that an image is required. In this case, the first one doesn't; but the second does, it is the parameter |imageneeded=yes
- the presence of that parameter means that the page is in
Category:Rail transport articles needing images. To deactivate this, you can either alter it to |imageneeded=no
; remove the word "yes"; or remove it entirely,
as here. --

Hi, re
this edit -
templates need the
pipe character - | - between the template name and the first parameter, as well as between each parameter; so try {{
nutshell|Part time amateur photographer, full time nerd}}
. --

Hi, as you probably noticed before making
this edit, putting a category name between two pairs of square brackets doesn't create a link, but places the page into that category. If you do wish to make a regular link to a category, there are two ways of doing this. One is to use the {{
cl}}
template without the word "Category:" - that is, {{
cl|Wikipedia requested images}}
produces
Category:Wikipedia requested images. The other way is to use the normal double square bracket syntax, but insert a colon before the word "Category:" as well as after it - that is, [[:Category:Wikipedia requested images]]
produces
Category:Wikipedia requested images. --
