How to denote missing details on a wiki for other contributors?

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

I would like to denote missing details on certain wiki pages so contributors can be notified of the same when visiting the page. I notice few wiki articles missing images, I would like to denote that this is missing similar to the {citation-needed} tag for missing citations.

Please guide me on the templates to be used and other details around the same.

You could add {{Photo requested}} on the article talk page describing what photo(s) would be helpful. Also, many WikiProject templates on talk pages have a parameter like |needs-image= or |needs-photo= that you could add and set to "yes". Happy editing!

There are a lot of maintenance templates (or tags) relating to content. You can dive into them by exploring Category:Wikipedia maintenance templates.

For images, though, there's a different approach. Perehaps you'd primarily want to use {{image requested}} on the talk page of the article - emphasis that the template belongs on the talk page - and there are some related templates for phtotos, maps, charts, {{audio requested}}, infobox, etc.

Don't go crazy putting tags in every place where something could be added. Use them sparingly, aiming for the places where fulfilling the request would make a large difference in the quality of an article. Also, if an article already has tags, there is little need to pour more on. — jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 03:30, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your suggestion jmcgnh, I will explore the Wikipedia maintenance templates and sparingly add requests for media inclusions where ever these might add value articles. Rahul-kumi (talk) 18:28, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
