|image=[[File:SomeImage.jpg|thumb|Some image caption]]
Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:
|image=SomeImage.jpg
.
There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as |caption=Some image caption
. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

- An additional note on Peter Rice (executive)... Your edit summary did not match up with the large number of changes you made to the page which included a substantial and unexplained removal of content. --Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 00:08, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Peter Rice (executive), you may be blocked from editing. Thank you.

@Zackmann08: What do I need to put on the edit summary to be able to delete those paragraphs? The owner of the page wanted the bio streamlined and edited.
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Peter Rice (executive). Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 01:43, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:
I understand that I was blocked for disruptive editing. I was updating a page with accurate info and streamlined a bio for someone and put info in the edit summary, but I was still blocked. I'm new to editing an existing page and maybe I misunderstood what should be in the edit summary. Please reconsider the block.
Accept reason:

- Ritchie333 - Uh oh! If it's possible that this was good-faith editing, then yes absolutely please unblock! ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 17:31, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
- Done. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 17:35, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
@Ritchie333:@Oshwah: Thanks guys!
- I would also add that the old version of the article had a substantial amount of copyright violations, which the trim has helped resolve. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 17:48, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
- Monelisa - Please accept my humble apologies. Good faith editors should not have been blocked as you were. In the end, when bad assumptions are made and mistakes occur with warning and reporting users to be blocked, it was up to me to identify that and decline the report. The buck should have stopped with me, and that didn't happen. I'm sorry. If you need any assistance with editing or Wikipedia guidelines, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Happy editing :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 17:54, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
- Oshwah no worries. Thanks!
