RE: Mario Anime Images

I removed them because they're not necessary, because if you look at the image file summaries, they already take care of that (not to mention the logo watermarked over the photos). Sorry, but crediting your own work, or anyone else's work for that matter, is not allowed on wiki mainspace, and should just be in the files themselves. Mario JC

Filenames

To add onto what Mario jc said, you should also try and have better filenames; names such as Cid5757VAAIuvec.jpg are not descriptive and make images hard to sort and find. I moved all your uploads to better names (see here) but please keep that in mind for the future. Additionally, make sure to add the category when you upload (which can be done by adding e.g. [[Category:Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!]] anywhere in the file source), as this is also makes the files easier to locate. Thanks. driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 12:40, 23 June 2016 (EDT)

It's stated MarioWiki:Image use policy. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 16:12, 23 June 2016 (EDT)

Duplication

Please stop duplicating files on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing. If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Don't duplicate files! There was a reason File:Mario playing game.png was deleted! File:TheGreatMissionMarioPlayer.png is the same exact image. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 05:19, 3 July 2016 (EDT)

Additionally, if you're trying to upload a clearer version of an already existing image, either use the update button or contact another user for help. -- Ghost Jam 08:05, 3 July 2016 (EDT)

This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site. If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it.

A sysop and I have told you to stop uploading duplicates. Next will be a {{lastwarn}} and then you will be banned for two weeks. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 22:15, 6 July 2016 (EDT)

I got beaten to it so I will just echo what has been said. Stop uploading duplicates and edit-warring. --™ The 'Shroom 22:16, 6 July 2016 (EDT)

The reason is that you keep duplicating files. Two sysops and I have now told you to stop. You keep persisting and they will keep deleting it. Each time you now do it, your punishments are going to get more severe for each same offense. It's your fault you got these two warnings. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 23:26, 6 July 2016 (EDT)

The scan is a better image in this case. It's still a picture of the VHS cover. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 23:31, 6 July 2016 (EDT)

The version you uploaded was inferior because we don't want watermarks on our images. The currently allowed version doesn't have this issue. Also it is dimensionally larger. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 23:43, 6 July 2016 (EDT)
