Sophie, I know you definitely have no ill-intentions and want to help out. However, I hope that you'll kindly listen to the administrators, as sometimes trying to help can make it messier and we're just trying to prevent this.


 * Even if you are using these images in your css, we have no way of knowing this as the images show up as unused and are treated as such. If you'd kindly place these css images into a Sandbox or something of the like, that would fix the problem of the images showing up as unused. I think you said that you did put these files somewhere now (maybe User:Sophiedp/Files?), but if not doing this would be fine.


 * I don't recall PK saying categorizing recently uploaded images was ok but I believe he instead said that categorizing your own uploads was ok. " unless you are categorizing an image that you uploaded, please please do not categorize any images!!!!" Even if you know how to categorize images, and I don't doubt that you do, this must be abided by unless an admin states otherwise.

UPDATE: I asked him about this and he confirmed that you can categorize on recently uploaded images, but only on your own recently uploaded images.


 * There are plans to use the palette images elsewhere. I understand you not knowing about this as this was an admin decision, but all we ask is that you don't categorize them as candidates for deletion since there are plans for them. This was an easy misunderstanding to make.


 * I'm confused what you mean about new users not knowing to look for the candidates for deletion category. Admins would be the ones deleting the images, so just the category is sufficient enough for getting an image deleted.

Please wait until further admin announcements are made before doing image categorization (excluding your own uploaded images), and just remember to keep all your images in a Sandbox/other place to indicate their use. This is all, if you have any more questions about images that you want to ask that is fine, but just please follow these two rules so the image system can run smoothly for now.
