Listing articles needing images
[edit]If you know of an article that requires an image, you may list it at List of articles needing images/Holding pen. However, please consider doing the following first:
- Search Wikicommons to be sure no image is available.
- See if a non-free image can be found.
- Check the page visit statistics. The list of articles needing images is intended for articles that get 10,000 or more monthly page visits and/or have a significant number of articles at non-English Wikipedias.
