Hi again,

Examined most of your edits and thought I should compile a "do's and don't's" for you to use as a reference. Anyway, here's what you should know based on previous edits:
 * 1) Coding - Now majority of issues are the set up. Taking at the edit on the Ship article, where I just removed (or revised) most of the coding. Now I assume this be the work on "Visual mode", but we'll get to that later.
 * 2) Past/Present Tense - focusing on the edits on here and here, you wrote "This first appeared..." or "In Curse of the Black Pearl..." or "In the films..." According to our manual of style, our articles need to be written using an in-universe perspective. The only time present tense should be used is in the "Behind the scenes" sections or articles applying only to the real-world (i.e. Disneyland, the movies, cast, etc) However real-world stuff that appears in-universe (like England, Florida) does need past tense in the "History" section.
 * 3) Images - As guides usual do, POTC Wiki does need images as visuals. However, we mainly need screenshots, promos, etc not images that are considered fan-made(such as the one removed from the Ship article). Exceptions to that rule include replacing a background of an image or if it's something for decorating the Wiki - you can see most of it on the Main Page.

Unless if I'm forgetting something, that's pretty much it.

Now I'm sure points 2, 3, and 4 should make sense. But getting back to #1, which I'm sure is difficult to figure out, I do have a suggestion. Not alot of people realize Visual Mode is a bit hard to tackle (because of the "coding issue" I mentioned above) which is why I've pretty much always use "Source Mode". Of course the choice is yours if you want to use it - I'm only suggesting it now. But if you do use it, I guarantee it's a lot easier...especially when you link to other articles and stuff.
