How do i get pictures on my info page?

Adding a Flag Article that already has a Redirect

I don't know yet if my flag will become important enough to require a YPPedia entry. But if it does, I have a problem -- the name of the flag is Incredible. Incredible currently redirects to Duty report, and it probably always should. But then, on the other hand, maybe someone would come to the YPPedia looking for my flag.

The question is, when I do create a page for my flag, what should I call said page? After it is created, I can work out the details of getting searches for "Incredible" to have a chance of finding my article. -C squared01 14:03, 8 January 2007 (PST)

Add it as Incredible (flag). We can add to the top of the incredible page a small header linking to the flag page. --Piplicus 14:09, 8 January 2007 (PST)

Call it Incredible (flag). To see some examples of the notation you should put on both your flag article and on the Incredible article, see what we did for Nemesis and the crew Nemesis Revolution.--Fiddler 14:12, 8 January 2007 (PST)

Alright, I've created Incredible (flag), but I am not sure exactly how to add something to Incredible itself. I certainly can't add an "if you were looking for" to the Duty report page, can I? I would only want that text to appear on "Duty report" IF they had been sent there by a redirect from "Incredible". --C squared01 23:17, 13 January 2007 (PST)

Given that the Incredible page is acutally a redirect to the duty report page, one approach would be to change that redirection page into a disambiguation page. On there the possible target pages can be listed for a reader to continue to. -- Faulkston 15:52, 14 January 2007 (PST)
Alright, hopefully I've done it correctly. I also used "what links here" to fix a bunch of links, so that at the moment, nothing should actually point at the disambiguation page Incredible. Thanks for your help! --C squared01 02:01, 15 January 2007 (PST)
Looks great. Thank you for changing the pages so they don't point to that disambiguation page, as that's another task which needs to be done when converting an existing article into a disambiguation. -- Faulkston 18:29, 15 January 2007 (PST)

Div tags

I'm having trouble with div tags again. Please could someone help me sort out this page? I'm trying to get the text to lie above the lines (and then work on subsequent pages), but it's failing miserably. --Piplicus 11:58, 24 January 2007 (PST)

Right now I see the first round working properly in the sandbox, but the second round is shifted much too far down. Do you see any other issues?--Fiddler 12:07, 24 January 2007 (PST)
