| Photo galleries are generally discouraged, per ]. For readers using mobile devices, galleries make page loading a real chore. If photos cannot easily be placed into articles, just add a link to the Commons. Thanks. ] (]) 11:01, 23 August 2024 (UTC) | |||
| :Photo galleries are not generally discouraged. As per their statement "Articles consisting entirely or primarily of galleries are discouraged" This is a guideline not a rule. It is a good guideline for many articles but it is a not a hard and fast rule. In the small town and small city articles I have added photo galleries they are but part of the article not the only or primarily content. You were correct in deleting the the gallery in Sabin, Minnesota as I forgot to add the captions for the photos. However, it is already a struggle to achieve notability for articles in rural areas and small cities, let alone flyover country, outside of the media concentrated areas of the East and West coasts. There is little that can be added to these towns because of Media/Urban bias. Photos are at a least a visual way to describe the town in a Misplaced Pages article.] (]) 21:28, 25 August 2024 (UTC) | |||

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Arrowhead Library System.png
Thank you for uploading File:Arrowhead Library System.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Misplaced Pages may not meet the criteria required by Misplaced Pages:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Misplaced Pages:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Min☠︎rax 00:23, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Minorax,
- I will check this out and see what I can do to improve it. Myotus (talk) 06:05, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
- I have clarified the reason why the file qualifies for non-free use in the Purpose section of the Summary. I have also added to Library system section to better tie to the graphic.
- It far better illustrates the section than the previous glamour shot of the Boston Public Library's reading room while a free file, had nothing to do with topic. Myotus (talk) 22:34, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Query about Minnesota Misplaced Pages Day meetup
I'll be attending the Toronto Misplaced Pages Day meetup this coming weekend, and we are noticing a LOT of newly created accounts signing up for this. I see that the signup list for the Minnesota event similarly had a lot of new accounts signed up. Did many of them come? Just trying to gauge whether we should make a point of focusing on new editor stuff, or whether there was something of a prank happening here. Risker (talk) 02:54, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- It's not a prank, we've been using the m:CentralNotice banner, in this case coordinated with Wikimedia Canada. A similar thing was done for last year's events. Expect some but obviously not all of the newbies to attend, and Happy Misplaced Pages Day! Pharos (talk) 15:30, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
