What counts as Cut and Cropped?

So, I've been adding a bunch of images to otherwise image-empty pages, such as the Dexter episode Teenage Wasteland and all of the associated actor/writer/producer/director pages. I've also added to a bunch of other actor pages (mostly Danish), as well as two Danish movies, Hans store aften og Kriminalassistent Bloch.
 
Yet, when I look at the Cut and Cropped quest it still only shows that I have uploaded one single images. What gives?  It's obviously wrong, but why?

@TheOtherGuy: I don't remember the exact details for this quest, but have you just been uploading them to the pages? It's possible you might need to do more than just that  - have you tried organising them?

@skidd: No it's been a long time since I uploaded them. And most of the time I drag them into the appropriate folder (such as "DVD Cover" or "Screenshot"). Also, they *are* counting toward the "Upload 100 images" quest (I'm at ~60), so it's not like the system as a whole doesn't see the images...

@TheOtherGuy: Ah right. Yeah, I thought it might be adding images to galleries, but it sounds like you're doing that alright...

IIRC, for this quest you have to add images to object pages (like glow stick or police hat), not movie pages.

I thought it was for all pages. D:

@bigheart711: Well, in the text for the completed quest it says that you added images associated with a "content object", whatever that means. I think I took it to mean an object page and I got the quest. I suppose it could also mean other types of pages but I don't know.

@Walker_after_dark: A "content object" is any piece of content. It's extremely broad. "Objects" or "things" within the context of the wiki are something different. Each object page is a content object, but a concept or a movie or even an individual release is also a content object. It can be confusing when the term is used with that meaning, but the engineers will occasionally do so anyway.
 
And yet, knowing that still doesn't make it any easier to understand how this quest actually works.

@LordAndrew: It's grand, I sorted him out over a pm - he's completed the quest now
