That's fine, just please try to be more careful when editing in the future; when other users or admins look at the Recent Changes and see large portions of information being added or removed from a page or a number of pages, it's sometimes indicative of a vandal or troll trying to vandalize or disrupt the wiki by adding nonsense to an article or removing information from an article (or both). I'm not accusing you of vandalizing, I'm just saying that it can be very easy for others to confuse you for a vandal when you're not. Regarding your problems with adding images: if you want to add an image to an article (as long as it's appropriate, of course), you should upload it by going here and following the instructions. That page also tells you how to include uploaded files in articles. After uploading a file, you should also categorize it by adding the appropriate category to the file page. For example, if you did upload an image for Wario Land 4, you would put this: [[Category:Wario Land 4 Images]] on the bottom of the file page to place it in Category:Wario Land 4 Images along with the other images for that game.

Thankyou very much! Your tips helped and I successfully uploaded an image on the article, Warioland 4. I love this website!!

Replying to comments

You can reply to others' comments after their signature; placing it in the middle of the message is confusing. Also, you can sign your comments by typing in "~~~~" Bop1996 _(Talk)

The Preview button

When editing pages, it helps to use the "Show preview" button next to the "Save page" button, so you can see whether the changes you are making are working or not, instead of saving it and then changing something else. Also, there's a little check box above the "Save page" button that you can use to indicate that your edit is minor, like if you're only fixing one grammar mistake or something like that.

Stub article

The page(s) you recently created (Golden Passage) has/have been put up for deletion, has been deleted, or turned into a redirect. This may be because it violated at least one of the policies and/or guidelines of the Super Mario Wiki. There are some things you can do to ensure this doesn't happen again. Make sure there is no other article about the same subject with a different title, especially for conjectural articles. Make sure the article has enough information to make it a worthwhile read (i.e. it does more than state the obvious, such as "Luigi's Mansion is a mansion that is owned by Luigi"). Overly short articles are known as stubs and their creation is strongly discouraged; it is better to amass enough information to make a solid article right off the bat instead. Make sure the article is significant enough in the Super Mario franchise to have its own article. If the article has only been tagged to be deleted you can still fix or expand it, but an administrator may delete it at any time, so please act quickly. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing!

When creating an article, put as much effort as you can to expand it, so it won't become a stub. It not been tag for deletion yet, so i'll give you a chance to expand it. L151

Thanks. By the way, how do I make an infobox in my user article?
