Oh my have all of you been busy today while I was away! 😲

Lilac: Thanks for helping Diana with additional reference materials and guidance.

AAA: Thanks for looking over Diana's work for her! Whenever you and Lilac can help her and MD with any questions they have that would be great...I'm pretty sure both of you can get to that faster than me. Also, I had mentioned to Diana that I have access to the same source as Foss for clean game images, which covers most of them except those that can only be made by screenshot, like completion notifications and collection images (as opposed to collection item images). Do you have that same access? If so and if Diana, MD and Lilac would like to learn about it so they can upload game images themselves instead of waiting for me to add them (or making them from screenshots), it would be great if you can cover that with them in email (not something we should post here on this Wiki).

Diana: I think you already figured this out but some of the current events' images have already been uploaded, most by Foss or me but there may be a few by others. Hopefully you can find them so there's no duplication (I think I uploaded 1 duplicate recently myself) but let me know if you're ever in doubt and obviously there are a lot more new images that have to be uploaded. I had thought you were asking about uploading images earlier but now I'm wondering if you meant adding images into a page, particularly a table. If you meant uploading images, in addition to the references Lilac has pointed you to, you can always look at the coding of pre-created samples for what to add after you have uploaded an image. Like on Traveler's Belongings, there are 2 pages: 1 that covers all the details about the collection (like the one you edited) and 1 that is the image uploaded page. You can always access the latter by clicking on the image in the former. The image page is completed and contains the file license verbiage (description area) as well as the categories (at the bottom) for collection image uploads. If you meant adding images to a page, it looks like you got the hang of it, based on your CE work on Traveler's Belongings, but let me know if you still have questions. And also, in addition to the help references Lilac and I have already pointed you towards, you know how there is that framed help verbiage at the top of a Collection page, like Traveler's Belongings? That portion of a Collection page in progress contains links to sample completed Collection pages (a good one for this might be Halloween Puppets) and you can always look at the coding on those to figure out how to reference an already uploaded image and/or a link to another page here on the Wiki (or elsewhere) to add them to the page and also for how to format text and tables. Also, in the collection items table, I still have to upload all those images from the source files (CEs required table cell is actually a screenshot...if you'd like to take a crack at creating and uploading and adding to the page that image). Lastly, you asked what I meant by "shell" page and that was kind of my shorthand (meaning I didn't know how else to phrase without a whole lot of words 😉). Really what I meant is I completed (assuming no errors) all the standard verbiage and formatting and what images I could to launch the page but the page still at least needs to be reviewed in case I made an mistakes (and corrected where needed) and also needs to be completed (like the quest tables on the event pages, the resource demands tables on the room pages, and all those blank tables on collection pages like Traveler's Belongings and adding missing completion notification screenshot images). Does that make sense?

Well, I have to go off and do a few more things elsewhere tonight...I have a cat with allergies who threw up again today and who has a vet visit in the morning plus I still need to do my gifting in game. But I'll come back tomorrow after the vet visit, if not sooner, and address the specific collections questions above. Until then have a great evening all. 😊
