Methods and systems for improving the classification of items that are listed for sale on an ecommerce system. In one example embodiment a seller of an item provides the ecommerce system a listing of the item for sale, the listing including key data such as item category in textual format. The ecommerce system, in response to the textual category, presents to the seller images of types of the item in the category in silhouette form. The seller selects the silhouette delineating the type of item, causing the type of item to be entered as key data in the listing. The seller may send her own image of the item to the system, which then compares the seller-provided image to a system image of known category and/or type. If the system detects a possible mismatch between the images, the system provides feedback to the seller indicating a possible error in categorization of the listed item.
