After seeing this link which happened to tooch and a few other incidents, I think it's high time for me to write a guide for the Paramore spot. Well, generally, all the Paramore-related spots and clubs.




I'm going to touch on 3 topics in this article:
1. Image crediting
2. Keywords
3. Repeated contents

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

1. IMAGE CREDITING
Please take some time to read this link sejak misanthrope86.
atau this link sejak DrDevience.
atau this link sejak Cinders on plagiarism.

If anda don't know what the Image credit section is for, well, that section is to give credits/praise/recognition to the people who took the photo/screencap and those who made the fanart/wallpaper.

A BAD example of image crediting:



eryfjfuj is not an image credit. It's... NONSENSE.

An example of correct image crediting:


So take a look at the image above, notice the name Kieran Frost at the image credit section? That shows that I'm giving credits and recognition to the photographer of the photo, Kieran Frost, which also shows that Kieran Frost is the one who took the foto and not ME!

If you've telah diposkan a fanart, give credits to the artist of the fanart.

If you've telah diposkan a screencap, well, anda can give credits to yourself if you're the one who took the screencap. Better still, give credits to the producer of the video.

For example, the Muzik video for Misery Business was produced sejak the Warner Muzik Group. So give credits to the Warner Muzik Group!

Okey, what if anda don't know who to credit?
a. Google and Wikipedia are your best friends.
Example: If anda don't know whose name to put in the image credit for the Pressure screencaps you've posted, use Google to find the producer of the Muzik video atau anda can always check Wikipedia.

b. "I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHO TO CREDIT!!!'
If anda have seriously do not know whom to credit, be nice and put a link to the original image in the comments.

*whiny voice* "WHY SHOULD I GIVE CREDITS? IT'S NOT THAT IMPORTANT!"
If that is what anda think, then I'll feel really sorry for anda when you're charged with plagiarism one day. :( Keep in mind that photographers and artists have feelings too! Would anda like it when a foto that you've taken ends up in somewhere else and that person who stole your image did not give credits to anda atau gave credits to him/herself?

I wouldn't like that at all.


2. KEYWORDS

This is a BAD EXAMPLE OF KEYWORDING:



The kata kunci section are there for anda to fill up. PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE IT BLANK!

Here's a GOOD EXAMPLE OF KEYWORDING:



So, this is exactly the SAME picture like the one before. Compare the kata kunci in both the photos.
Michelle121094 put "paramore, hayley williams, jeremy davis, taylor swift" as the keywords, where else luly98 did not put any kata kunci at all!

*groans* "Why the hell should I do that?"

Simple. To benefit YOU and the other Fanpoppers. Let's just say if anda want to cari for an image that you've posted, anda can cari for that particular picture with the correct keyword in the cari toolbar.

Example: Now I want to find that picture of the Paramore band members and Taylor Swift- the exact image above. So I type: paramore taylor swift in the cari toolbar.



CAN anda SEE IT? Take a look at the foto at the bottom part of the image above. The foto telah diposkan sejak Michelle121094, comes out in the cari results. But the foto telah diposkan sejak lulu98 didn't! Why? Because of the keywords! Do anda see the importance of kata kunci now? I hope anda do.

Remember to put proper and useful kata kunci when anda post an image. Do not just put "paramore" as your image's keyword. There's no use if anda do so since ALL THE IMAGES in the Paramore gallery are ALL PARAMORE-RELATED.

Example:
anda see Hayley Williams, Taylor pantas, swift and Jeremy Davis in the photo. Then, put all of their names in the kata kunci section. anda know the hari that foto was taken was Josh Farro's wedding, so put "josh farro, wedding" in the kata kunci section too.

BE lebih SPECIFIC WHEN GIVING KEYWORDS! :)


3. REPEATED CONTENTS *headdesk*

I see this...



and I see this AGAIN the seterusnya day...



REPEATED CONTENTS ARE NOT COOL.
Well, they're outdated so to speak. Since someone has already telah diposkan the picture, why post it again? Not only it takes up space, it's also unnecessary.

IDK about the others but if a picture that I've telah diposkan is reposted AGAIN sejak a fellow fanpopper, I'll be... annoyed. I mean-seriously, what's the point of reposting it again??

AND NOW THAT'S WHY... USE THE cari TOOBAR.

It's there for YOU! To make sure that the content (pick, image, video, link, quiz, question, forum...) that you're about to post has not yet been posted, use the Fanpop cari toolbar [look up... there's a grey toolbar with the term "Search Club'] to check.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOTE: I understand if anda didn't know that a content has already been telah diposkan before atau anda made a mistake and anda forgot to give image credits and keywords... Everyone makes mistakes. I've made these mistakes many times as well, so I've been trying to perfect my Internet etiquette as well.

But please... DO MAKE AN EFFORT to follow the guidelines when you're contributing to the spot.

If anyone (including me) has told anda that a particular contribution of yours has already been telah diposkan atau anda left the kata kunci and credit section blank...

"To err is human, to forgive is divine."

Don't be upset! There's no need to, really. All that we (especially me) want is for the spot be neat, tidy and in order. Just correct your mistake and everything else is fine. ♥

Thank anda for Membaca and remember to follow the guidelines! =)
