There was a discussion in the Forum about the length of time to expect for processing image upload requests. The discussion also included the suggestion that there is a need to check for duplicates before images are uploaded. See the [http://forums.familysearch.org/en/showthread.php?t=4607 Forum thread] for details.

::Thanks Steve. I'm not sure if [[User:VasquezJL|Janell]] is watching this discussion page, so I'll let her know. She can then have the missionaries use the template when duplicates are found. --[[User:JensenFA|Fran]] 22:40, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
