:The naming of images to you may seem going overboard, but the fact is the games are not named using numbers. With the site being online for six years, we should be looking to make the site as professional as possible as there is no longer an excuse of being new or having recently moved from Wikia. Getting something as simple as the name of the game correct across the site is something simple to do. That's why I've also been going through countless articles to edit out the use of redirects, which likewise doesn't look brilliant.

:Where would you suggest the explanation be placed? And if I'm not mistaken there were some categories where the number of images was reducing the amount of articles being listed. It also seems unnecessary to have the same screenshot located in several categories. A-Dust 22:03, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

::The improvement in the category system is that it splits up the main screenshot categories into smaller, more usable categories. The removal of screenshots from other categories is simply because they are not needed there, when they will already be used on the relevant pages. There is also no real point in having screenshots located in, with some, in three or four categories.
::And yes the site is less active, less active in general and in comparison to the Wikia site. I'd rather have less but better contributions than more that would make the content worse. However, this can also be expected due to the lack of information and games being released for the series. And so, in this quiet time, I would say now is the best time to get it out of the way before we become more active in the run up to GTA V. We had the opportunity to do it in the lead up to GTA IV and didn't take advantage.
::And it may not be the most important thing on the wiki right now, however, it is something that needs to be done at some point. The small things, such as removing redirects and standardising the naming of images, will add up to making the site look more professional and increasingly organised. A-Dust 19:32, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
