Hello everyone. It seems that we are going to need some kind of images standardization and ASAP. Currently there are 16158 images with no category. The worst thing is that there is no real policy regarding images and this is beginning to be a problem. So I have created a suggestion for it here, please take your time to read it and write your ideas what should be corrected or do you think that is ok. Thank you. --AndyCro Icon-Croatia.png Do you need assistance? Then ask me! ;)) 16:11, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
