Problem uploading photos.

I upload photos all the time, with no problem.

But recently I tried to upload several photos from SNL (making a poll about the best impressions by women) and a few were approved but many were rejected. Like more than 20. It says my photos don't follow contribution guidelines, but what I'm uploading isn't any different from other images I upload all the time. When you hit the link to the submission guides, there doesn't seem to be ANYTHING about photos. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Hi, Jen. According to the receipt of which you've provided a screenshot, the upload itself was not declined, but rather just the tagging of it with the particular title.

I just remember that images uploaded directly to title pages (unless uploaded to them via Title Scorecard) will not show up in the galleries for the people tagged in them, so in effect the photograph in question was declined altogether. There are so many technical nuances to all this stuff, it is hard to be sure.

I know that. They aren't going anywhere at all. Not title (which is where I uploaded) and not person (which generally doesn't happen immediately, if at all).

The guidelines are here, but it can be hard to guess what the specific problem is.

For everybody's convenience, the submission ID shown in the browser screen capture transcribes as 181211-224133-791302.

Hello Jen,
Thank you for your post.
I have looked into the submission and can see you tried to link the title to the parent series of SNL rather than a particular episode.  Where possible please try and tag images to their relevant episodes rather than the parent series.
Thank you for understanding.

I had a feeling that might be the issue.
