There are several criteria for a good caption. A good caption: clearly identifies the subject of the picture, without detailing the obvious; is succinct; establishes the picture's relevance to the article; provides context for the picture; draws the reader into the article. Different people read articles in different ways.
Do not explicitly define the size of an image in pixels unless there is a good reason to do so. Preferably the size should be specified as a value relative to the user's preferred thumbnail width, using the |upright= scaling factor parameter rather than pixel values, whenever an image is to be displayed at something other than the default width.
Except with very good reason, do not use px (e.g. |thumb|300px), which forces a fixed image width measured in pixels, disregarding the user's image size preference setting. In most cases upright= scaling_factor should be used, thereby respecting the user's base preference (which may have been selected for that user's particular devices).
It's hard to write a full sentence caption that doesn't fulfill at least one other goal of a good caption, and with that in mind, a full sentence is a good place to start. Keep in mind that captions are wiki text just like the articles - they're always subject to improvement! -- ke4roh 19:24, Aug 24, 2004 (UTC)

Articles start with a lead section (WP:CREATELEAD) summarising the most important points of the topic.The lead section is the first part of the article; it comes above the first header, and may contain a lead image which is representative of the topic, and/or an infobox that provides a few key facts, often statistical, such as dates and measurements.
