=Questions=
# How did the images change to "expired"? Did you do it manually? Or is there some flag to be set so that the wiki will automatically "revert" the image back to "expired.png"?
# ''(somewhat connected with my previous question)'' Can the process of uploading images changed to something similar like [[NecroWatch]]? Where all we need is just upload a "new version" for each images (as described [[User:NTScan/The_Eagan_Building|here]]). There will be less confusion and won't waste too much space in the wiki (I don't really know how does the wiki delete images, so this is just my assumption)
# Can I help in updating the map? I don't have any zombie player to send the report, but I can help others that submit their iwrecord :)
# Do we need to wait for one image to be expired before updating it with the new one?

:# Manually.  I simply go through each day and check the tooltips for expired images, click on the image, see what SIM page the image is used on, click on that, edit it to make it expired... ok, not so simple.  In fact, its a pain in the ass.  ''Edit- If that was something you (or anybody) wanted to work on, that would rock.''
:# It could, but then (I think) the tooltips would not work.  I'll take a look at that.  I doubt the server space consumed by old SIM images is an issue, but anything that makes the process easier on the editors would be good.
::''Actually, after looking at it, there is no reason that would not work.  The SIM pages would still need to be updated to make the tooltips work (so it would take an upload AND an edit) but the edits would be a bit simpler, amounting to a signature, and that means the involved templates could ALSO be simpler, and less prone to mistakes (though so far 95% of mistakes are related to the images themselves).''
:# Hmm, maybe.  Hell, I'm bashing out 15 or so images a day, I could sure as hell use the help.  If all I had to do was throw up Iwitness links, it would make my life a HELL of a lot easier.  One problem is that for some reason the scent maps format strangely in Iwitness, but I can fix that with a simple bookmarklet you run on the Iwitness.  I was gonna put that up anyhow.
:# Definately not.  The more current any and all of the SIM's are, the better!  "Expired" just means the last time a new image was posted was at least 7 days ago.  I figured displaying such old images was potentially misleading, so at that point I just stop displaying them.  The fact that there is a big hole in the map also maybe acts as an incentive to go grab a new image.  But there's no reason to not grab a new image for a SIM that has a fairiy fresh image if you happen to be there already.  Indeed, the whole point of [[SI|{{SI}}]] is to get enoug contributors set up around the map that no SIM need ever get close to being expired, and maybe even get updated every 72 hours or so.
