One more doubt-If I can’t provide the link,can I write the name of the official source below the pic?
URL should be bare minimum for a source. Every picture has a URL source, unless someone directly texted you the photo... in which case, they are not a reliable source. 😂
Some examples of helpful and not helpful source listings....
Not helpful/not acceptable
Source is WeTV
What does that mean? WeTV's Weibo? They have multiple accounts. WeTV's Instagram? Again, they have multiple ones. WeTV's website? Domestic or international? Too vague.

This is the bare minimum acceptable source link. Should be a direct link to page or to post that contains the picture. Not a link to the main website, not a link to the account's home page. Anyone clicking on link must easily be able to see the picture on that page and the context (accompanying text, the account, the platform, etc.).

(from movie's Weibo)
Some users have been including additional text below the source links which is super helpful and greatly appreciated.

(from actor's studio Weibo)
The actor's studio released this screenshot for episode 3.
Some users have included explanations for what the image is showing. Obviously this is not necessary for all images (some are self-explanatory, like posters, release schedules, etc.). In this case, it is super helpful because otherwise, without any source info, the screenshot would look like a typical user-made screenshot and could've been deleted. The explanation justifies why it's in the gallery. Again, explanations are not necessary for all pics; they are helpful in cases where there might be uncertainty.
