First off, I am happy to help if you want to learn to add parts to the catalog.
Do you have these parts in hand? Can you submit some images?
|
If that's what's needed, I'll pick up the set. And yes, I've
submitted images here.
|
Awesome! I should note here that you are not explicitly required to have these
in hand and create new images to submit the parts. (It is required for the set
inventory.) It's just highly preferred. How else can we check for duplicates,
mold numbers, accurately describe colors, and show the back of the torso or a
dual-sided head?
| |
| |
There are very few contributors here and fewer that can work with minifig components
which are fairly complicated. If you look carefully, the parts there are just
the LEGO renders
|
"just the LEGO renders?" and using those is not preferred over not being able
reference or sell the parts entirely
|
To be fair, my statement included just the LEGO renders AND no descriptions.
Yes, I could submit minifig inventories relying exclusively on LEGO data, checking
nothing, and describing nothing and have all these done in 20 minutes. My point
is that is not what we want.

Good luck searching for those!! We have much higher standards for numbers, variants,

TLG does not build or assist with building this catalog. Maybe, just maybe, part
of the problem is our members who have been here using the catalog for 15-plus
years and have never learned how or don't contribute for many reasons. Wink,
wink. Glad you here now. When should we start?
|
I'll go ahead and assume you're pointing to me with your "15-plus years,
wink, wink" remarks?
|
Hey, you were asking why we don't have more contributions? I was answering
that it's because we don't have more contributors.
| |
Let me buy the set and we'll go from there. I look forward to learning and
contributing, more than I have to date anyway
One things for certain, I can hardly ask for a better teach than a former Inventories
Administrator such as yourself.
|
Happy to help! My offer is open to anyone who wants to submit parts, inventories,
or images to our catalog.
Thanks,

I’d like to believe that many, if not most, BL users would have higher expectations
of BL than, “if you’re not happy, just leave”. That’s pretty much the lowest

| | Dear BrickLink Team,
why are you making such serious changes in the middle of the Christmas season?
It is simply not possible to work properly on the site today.
If such things were announced, you could at least be prepared for it in terms
of daily workflow.
There are many commercial sellers here and we expect the platform operator to
act professionally.
Please make such big updates in the future in calmer times, at best also with
more beta testing in advance, so that something like today does not happen.
