Hello, is section missing screenshot broken ?
Says "
No missing screenshots were found. Wait, what?
" And of course it is not right. I would like to fill empty spaces I see.
One more question, if my screenshot has not been approved, will I be notified or just norhing ? Uploaded one 4-5 days ago and still not live.
Thank you for answers.

Screenshots system might be having some problem as it does some times specially when new content comes out and lots of people try to upload. Pretty sure someone from the tech will help you with that.
I can however confirm that you don't get any notification after uploading screenshots and if they are not approved. You will, of course, see them in your submitted screenshots section and get some achievement points if approved, otherwise you can safely assume it was a miss.
Make sure to follow
https://www.wowhead.com/help=screenshot-guidelines
They are very strict on these, including any name plates / UI / lower quality graphics settings / make sure to zoom in or out depends what are you trying to capture but otherwise they always say, they never have enough screenshots! keep posting more and more.

You don't have any pending screenshots, nor any approved ones, so if you submitted any they were likely declined. You can try checking the guidelines lovelywaz graciously provided and resubmit after you've altered them to conform to the requirements.
In respect to the
Missing Screenshots
tool, yes, it's not functioning right now. It's a known issue. In the meantime you can use the database to find items without screenshots:
http://www.wowhead.com/items?filter=113;2;0
-- that link will show all items without screenshots (limited to 1000, so you'll need to add more filters if you want to narrow it down more). Obviously not all of them require screenshots, but it's something you can use in the meantime if inclined.
Thank you! :)(##RESPBREAK##)2##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

Thank you for answering and also that thing with filter, I would not think of it but it is great way how to find it :)

Hi. It seems like the screenshot filter option does not work as intended with NPCs. Check this:
http://www.wowhead.com/npcs?filter=31:6;2:1519;0:0
It should list the ones without screenshots, but they all have one. When I try to list NPCs that
have
a screenshot, it cannot find anything?

While there are some known buggy issues with the screenshot filter, our focus currently is on some larger code refactors to keep large parts of the site running smoothly, and cleanup from 7.3.5. We likely won't be able to address this right away, but with Blizzard's increasing duplicate NPC bloat, a fully-working filter has some limitations in showing which NPCs truly need updates, so we'd probably want to revamp this as well.
If people are looking for pages that need screenshots most urgently, I would use the content linked in the
Patch Survival Guide
or the weekly
Tuesday Event Posts
as solid guidelines - those related database pages will get the most traffic for a week, cover the most important quests, npcs, etc.
