Ignore the fact that Czars were from pre-communism Russia and not post
And ignore the fact that Che was merely a communist and not Russian.

Image Czars need to go through every image and write a description of what they are in the image article. They also help by creating image galleries for certain articles adding {{boring}}, and other appropriate templates to articles which require images (such as {{pixplz}}), adding {{descplz}} to image files, and dropping the {{filename}} template on user talk pages of those who forget to use a proper file name for their uploaded images.
