wanted images?[edit]

I could be completely missing something, and if I do I'm very sorry, but would there be a way of seeing what pages still need images? it seems like one of those things I would love to fill in, but without an easy to use list, well, I'm not sure whether I'd want to go check every page. (unless ofcourse this falls under the "wanted file" catagory, if so, sorry again >.<)

Heya Meepsa. Whoops you just brought me to a gap in the templates. Okay let me explain first. Under Special:SpecialPages there are alot of statistic links you can use, there's a link to Special:WantedFiles and Category:Pages with broken file links. These are the lists of missing files all over the Wiki. BUT... As you can see those lists are small and not complete. Alternatively your best bet is on the Creatures (Category:Creature). There are the most missing pictures by now though Terao is planning to do that in a bit. You still got to walk through the articles one by one (see below) but at least you may find alot of missing pics.
The templates delivering a screenshot option (like Template:NPC Summary which is used in Decayed_Elven_Trooper for ex.) sabotage this currently. They insert a 'insert cool image' pic instead of the real picture incase it doesn't exist. The Wiki then believes this is a valid image and doesn't list it in above mentioned overviews. Thanks to your question I just got to that and will fix it *cheers* :) This will take a bit but then there's a category for those missing pictures in the future where everyone can explicitly look into what is missed and wanted. I'll let you know when I'm done.
