caused it. You can see scratches on part and window when I tried to remove it

P.S. finally removed the window but as you can see I damage both parts
So if combined the only solution keep them together and do not separate

| | We have this style of legs/robes under ‘Minifigure, Legs, Modified, Decorated’
which is all good for finding these McGonagall Robes
[P=36036pb23]
But not this style?
I understand it’s probably due to wanting to keep all the decorated sloped bricks
in one place but when the slopes are specifically designed for use with minifigures
this should take precedence as to where they are located because this is where
people will expect to find them i.e under minifigure entries. Likewise those
searching for decorated slopes for a build I’m sure will have very little use
for these kinds of decorated slope designs making them a search hindrance for
the category if anything?
|
What about these, they can be very well used in a build:
What I would suggest is just adding the word Skirt to all the 3678b* that are
for minifigs. So that they will appear in searches alongside 36036*
|
Yes and I think someone else once said they could use these robes for some curtains
when I mentioned the same thing before...
* | | 3678bpb027 Slope 65 2 x 2 x 2 with Bottom Tube with Minifigure Dress / Skirt / Robe, White Panel with Black and Gold Trim Pattern
Parts: Slope, Decorated |
but we’re really scratching around the barrel for ideas here on the basis of
a one in a million chance that someone might actually stumble across these parts
and decide to use them for their build either way there is nothing to stop people
having a glance under the minifig robes to see what they can find but overall
they don’t cater very well for builders and likewise slopes with space symbols,
computer panels and numbers don’t cater for the needs of those searching for
minifigure parts hence I feel it would be beneficial to separate them
Likewise we have Minifigure heads which have unrelated heads mixed in with them
from goldfish bowls to death star plans:-
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/search.page?q=minifigure%20head%20without%20face#T=P
These should be given their own category ‘Decorated heads’ also we separated
Plain Legs and Torsos from Decorated Legs and Torsos which I think was a good
move and so I think we should also consider separating plain heads from decorated
heads and separating both these again from minifigure heads
As the catalog expands I think it benefits to cater better for the two main types
of shopper ‘builders’ and ‘minifig enthusiasts’ whereas piling everything into
the same catalog entries just because they are the same design of part doesn’t
actually allow for efficient shopping for either?
|
We just urgently need tag system finally.

Sticker is applied on wrong part
There are 3 red Shell stickers.
When you check instruction for this set you can notice that on those windows
aren't those stickers applied. Two of those windows are placed in this step
http://peeron.com/scans/6394-1/8/
Those stickers are showed applied on this step of instruction
http://peeron.com/scans/6394-1/16/
Two of those are showed being applied on sides of gas station roof.
Third one was intended to be applied on other side of the roof which isn't
visible in the instruction. But it is visible on offcial set image in LEGO catalog
(where you see other side of roof, different angle of set)
Here is the catalog page just magnify image.
https://images.brickset.com/library/view/?f=catalogues/c88uk&p=13
As third sticker is not showed in the instruction we can only assume placment
of it but seeing this image we can expect that this was intention of it use.

Based on that your pending item was rejected as sticker is applied on wrong part.

catalog:
"So I quickly checked reviews for other four 2020 sets with this part

| | I'm sorry, but that's laughable in practice on this platform.
Images from the Lego website are used all the time to add new catalog items (especially
items that aren't officially released yet - see catalog for pending items).
I don not believe for a second that the contributor asked permission to Lego
to use their images.
It should not matter where someone is getting the images from, it is an IPR violation
in any case.
So I agree with you in theory, but in reality if you should oblige any catalog
addition to show pictures taken by the contributor himself you'd have to
wait weeks if not months before someone parts out a set and feel like doing the
effort of taking pictures of all the new items and adding them to the catalog.
If I take a look at the main catalog contributors I don't see a lot of big
sellers among them (as they probably don't have the time for this).
I mean to say that I understand the practice of using a random image of a Lego
item as they are usually readily available in bulk on the Internet, most of them
without clear mention of the copyright holder.
Side discussion: in how far can someone be a copyright holder of a picture of
an item on which he has no copyright, like a Lego item? You might laugh at this,
but such has cases have already been tried at court.
Anyhoo, such poorly rendered and basically ugly pictures should never be a part
of our catalog. I dare say that by today's standards our catmins wouldn't
allow such an image to be used in the first place.

It is clearly stated in our rules
"Image Sources and Crediting Contributors"
"If an image you upload is an original scan or photo, then you will receive catalog
credit for adding it. If the image is later identified as originating or deriving
from somewhere else or is another person's image, then credit for the image
may be replaced. Images from official LEGO websites are acceptable for use and
will be credited to you. You may lose image credit if your image is replaced
by one from another member."
"Image preferences"
"BrickLink accepts any accurate image of decent quality when no image exists,
but certain preferences are exercised when choosing to replace an image or move
it to a different position. Larger images are preferable to smaller images of
similar quality and existing images are typically only replaced when the replacement
shows a significant improvement in quality or size. For specific items:
Parts - Renders are preferred.
Parts, Default Catalog Image - Professional-grade photos are preferred.
Parts, Patterned - Photos are preferred.
Parts, Variants - Photos are preferred, except for the current version of a variant
group.
Parts, Unusual Color Types - Photos are preferred for all non-standard colors
such as transparent, chrome, etc. and rare (non-inventoried) colors.
Figures - Official LEGO images are preferred.
Literature - Scans are preferred for instruction booklets, catalogs, and other
printed literature.
Sets and Original Boxes - Official LEGO images are preferred.
Sticker Sheets - Scans are preferred.
Sticker Sheets, Mirrored and Reflective - Photos are preferred."
So for plain parts offcial LEGO renders will be prefferd instead of photographs.
If we have photographs then we don't delete them but they frequently go to
additional image slot. So for main image render will be preffered.

The situation is then made worse by Bricklink not using Offical Lego colour names/references
which means people can translate them to the Bricklink site and colour palette
incorrectly and so although the part also shows up on BL in Pearl Light Gray
it may be that it only exists in Flat Silver or as Lego call it Silver Metalic.
This is another important reason why using Legos offical colour names should
take precedence over using colour names just because we like the sound of them
better?

Not to contribute to title-bloat, but since the word "Police" features prominently
on this part, it needs to be included in the description, since that is
how most people would search for it. 😕

Why do we need the locations (as in front / back) of the prints in the description.
"Black Panels with Gold Zipper, Classic Space and Police logos" covers the important
search terms. Are people really searching for back as a keyword for something
like this? If so, all other torso assemblies where back printing is mentioned
should be updated.

I am working on the inventory for the new Dots Series 3 packs. I opened three
of them but only got 13 of the 16 tiles. I have created catalog entries for the
other 3, but I need images so they can be approved. You can submit the images

That's what I thought, but on the catalog page for [p=3626b]
it says "this part has a variant with a single interior bar across the center"
and there is even a picture of such a minifig head.
Would it be too much effort to change "Vented Stud" to "Stud with 2 Holes" and
"Blocked Open Stud" to "Stud with 3 Holes" or something like that? To someone
unfamiliar with the catalog, the terms "Vented Stud" and "Blocked Open Stud"
may seem synonymous. Then again, someone unfamiliar with the catalog probably
doesn't care. Just a suggestion.

This image will be added as an additional image for all types of plain heads.

Also large picture of 3626b showing vented stud should be moved or deleted

Remember this case
Image will not be deleted.
Picture and note was added in November 2018. When Paul found it for the first
time and admin that time didn't know more about it so they added his picture
and a note to current 3626b
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1115430
For the first time vented head was found in sets in march 2020
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1184827
so 1,5 half year later
But see Paul later message from march therad
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1185193
When you compare current vented stud and one on Paul image you will see that
bar is different - thinner. So it isn't present part 28621. Origin of Paul
mold I think is still unknown.

I supplemented a note for 3626b with above informations for now.

One time consuming way is to find a black part 85984, but look at each set in

The one you didn't know from what set it was I done unfortunately this way,
by checking set by set with 85984 black color (as sticker was applied on black
slope) and checking sticker sheet there.

Thank you for submitting image of real part it looks quite different than LEGO

Maybe you would like to submit now also this second round tile with star to the
catalog also?
This one would go to Tile, Round, Decorated
as for round tiles we do not diffeare if tile is only round or round and modified,
all goes to round for now (until at least to another reclassification)
as you can see in tiles round are also tiles round modified in some way

Just tried to edit:
Part 3070bpb184 Tile 1 x 1 with Groove with Glitter Trans-Clear Diamond Pattern
(Dual Molded)
I suggested a few changes, all were rejected. this means wrong color is in the
name (it's not Glitter Trans-Clear, might look so in the LEGO picture but
it's definitely not clear).
The other changes I don't understand the rejection but there might be a reason.
Why this is a decorated tile instead of modified (since it's not flat). Can
someone please explain this to me for future understanding what is and isn't
the right use?
Thanks!

and this is a problem when submitters give us only LEGO renders from LEGO database
and very few submit to catalog real photographs of LEGO parts especially strange
ones.
[p=3070bpb184]
there was only this render to be worked with
Admins don't have in hand all new LEGO parts.
Finally somebody showed what part really looks like. Please submit photograph
of real part to replace render which is very missleading.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogImageAdd.page?itemType=P
Also please write here what is part number molded on part.
Part will be then moved and number changed.
Word pattern in description stays as it also used for dual molded parts without
print, best example is here
* | | 49656pb01 Rock 1 x 1 Geode with Molded Glitter Trans-Bright Green Crystals Pattern
Parts: Rock |
* | | 49656pb02 Rock 1 x 1 Geode with Molded Glitter Trans-Dark Pink Crystals Pattern
Parts: Rock |
* | | 49656pb03 Rock 1 x 1 Geode with Molded Glitter Trans-Light Blue Crystals Pattern
Parts: Rock |
also frequently in some new headgar and hairs with headgear for example
there is no print but it is two colored and dual molded
Category then shopuld be Tile, Modified, Decorated
as it is part with decoration in different color not plain modified ones whole
in one color.
