Did you ever see a wallpaper that have been uploaded in the wrong category or that have been duplicated? What's your mind about wallpapers that have been uploaded in the wrong category or items that have been uploaded for a several times? And what do you think, that duplicated items, that have been reported aren't deleted?

An Example for "duplicated" items:

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1555392/forest-path-wallpaper/

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1550463/forest-wallpaper/

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1548099/forest-wallpaper/

and so on... From Page 1 to page 34 3 times the same wallpaper... Does it really have to be??

Examples for wrong chosen categories:

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1549587/bicycle-wallpaper/

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1549596/ferris-wheel-wallpaper/

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1550827/tatty-bear-wallpaper/

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1551115/girl-in-dress-wallpaper/

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1554708/good-friends-wallpaper/

http://www.zedge.net/wallpapers/1554500/d-and--g-wallpaper/

and so on....


What do you think about it? Do you want to see that kind of wallpapers, when you browse the category NATURE / LANDSCAPES?

So let's hear your opinion about ;)

You can report an upload for being duplicate by clicking on report abuse.

I know.. I didn't wanted to know what I could do... I wanted to know, what others think about it ;) Cause I think it's pretty boring to see that item so many times (and also other items) ;) And 'Cause I want to know other people opinions, I started this topic;) Please read carefully before answering..but thanks for your post anyway

It happens because people don't search through hundreds of uploads to see if it has already been uploaded.

I don't want to know why it could happen... but ähem... the same pic in between 34 pages? Don't really need to be ;) this is my opinion;) But thanks for your explications ;)...Even I don't know what do you think about it (if you mind about, or if you don't care to see everytime the same wallpaper etc..) ;) I edit the topic to specify what I mean ;) so maybe you'll get it ;) greez

Why would anyone want to think about it, if it's a repeat, then it's supposed to be reported and removed. Wasting time considering what it makes you feel like helps no one.

If you find one help the site and report it, then there will be less repeats.

you know..even if its reported, there are a hundered wallpapers that are still duplicated or more 'cause they won't be deleted.... ;) I don't want to know what to do....(this I allready know for such a long time but thanks for your really "helpfull" tip;) )... It's just something really boring to see the same wallpaper ever 10th page ;) And I ask myself, why people aren't able to load up their wallpapers in the RIGHT category ;) but that doesn't mean, that I want to read here some reasons for... but I think, if there are specified categories...people should be able to chose the right category ;) then when I browse the category nature, I don't want to see pics of babes or other staffs ;) but maybe I'm the only one ;) that wants to see pics of nature when I browse the category NATURE and LANDSCAPES ;)

Considering this is a worldwide site, you have to expect the odd mistake, not everyone speaks English, not everyone understands how to use a PC or even the internet (yes, there still are such people). With millions of uploads the odds that a mistake can happen is inevitable, unless you sit and sort through every single upload

hmm but to understand this EASY description of different categories, you don't really have to understand english...guess without understanding english you can imagine, that a pic of sports (for example) don't have to be @ category nature/ landscapes;) even if you don't understand english, you can SEE the type of pics when you browse a category and then it should not be that difficult to chose the right category for the pic that want to be uploaded ;) so why does different categories exist...there is a good reason for ;)

Rightly said, I just wish most people would realise this.
