Image use policy
Your recent upload of this image for use on your user page is actually counter to the image use policy. Images intended only for personal user pages are not allowed on the site. If the image were properly cited and a use on another page for it could be found, then it's quite ok to keep the image, but otherwise, the image will have to be removed as per rules, regulations, etc, etc. Also, all image must be named appropriately. Thanks. -- Sulfur 14:23, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Further to the image use stuff... Make sure that you give a description, license, and category when uploading images, just as per the policy referenced above. For screenshots, the license to use is, and if you can't figure a suitable image category, default to Category:Memory Alpha images. In addition, a description (which includes a citation) is absolutely required too. This lists which episode/etc the image came from.

Finally, citations (whether in articles, images, wherever) come after the sentence ends, such as:
 * The shuttle was grey.

They are not considered part of the sentence, and thus should not have the period following them. :) -- Sulfur 17:25, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
