Uploads[edit]

Hello, Alice875. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:

Images Audio/video files

When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, files related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or
[[Category:Super Mario World media files]]

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Hello, Alice875. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must apply the proper license. A full list of licenses can be found in the file copyright tags category, but the following are the most common:

  • {{photo}} - Used for photographs of real-life subjects.
  • {{art}} - Used for artwork of something that is not a character.
  • {{comic-scene}} - Used for scans of a comic.
  • {{comic-cover}} - Used for covers of comic books.
  • {{tv-screenshot}} - Used for screenshots of television shows.
  • {{film-screenshot}} - Used for screenshots of movies.
  • {{video-screenshot}} - Used for other screenshots, such as those from YouTube.

When uploading, select the license from the drop-down box below the summary text box, or add the license manually after uploading or if you're using the upload function from the text editor. For example, artwork of Mario would use {{character-artwork}}.

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Don't include multiple copyright templates; choose the one that you feel best fits the file. If you continue uploading files without applying the correct license, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Please remember to fill in the summary and categorise rather than removing everything in the summary box entirely. At the very least, the files should have [[Category:Super Mario Bros. (film) images]] in the summary; the "aboutfile" part can be removed though it's preferred that it stays, with a source and description added, especially for images like these where users would want to know where they're from and if they're genuine.

Category links should be in square brackets, not curly. Lucina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 20:47, January 27, 2023 (EST)

RE: Mario movie poster[edit]

I'm aware of the artwork itself being official (at least the part being shown in those screens); it's this image specifically that's been edited, with the text removed, so it's not allowed on the wiki. Lucina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 05:05, January 10, 2023 (EST)

Previewing edits[edit]

Hello, Alice875. When editing, if you'd like to see how your edits affect a page, use the "Show preview" button next to the "Save changes" button. This allows you to check over your edits for any errors and make any additional changes or fixes before you save, which will prevent edits from flooding the page history and recent changes. (If you are on mobile, make sure to check the preview page thoroughly before proceeding to save.) Please try to avoid making excessive, consecutive edits to a single page within a short timespan and instead limit them to as few as possible.

Use this function to see how your edit looks before saving it, like when adjusting the size for an image. Also, if you're trying to link to something but with a different display text, the format is [[Article title|Link display text]], not the other way around - e.g. [[:File:ZCharles_Martinet.jpg|Photo of Charles Martinet]] makes Photo of Charles Martinet (the colon before the file name is so the image is only linked, not actually displayed).

Pinball[edit]

I emailed Charles yesterday and sent him the voice clips. The link I gave him does not work on his end. He has told me that he WAS involved with the pinball machine.

Take a look at this:

Here is the link I tried to send him:

Have any opinions? Should we give this an official confirmation? Let me know. Thanks. User:Guzzlord/sig 14:50, March 8, 2023 (EST)

"its" vs "it's"[edit]

FYI "Its" is the possessive pronoun and should be used in cases like "its lack of" or "its current form", not "it's", which is short for "it is". Lucina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 23:55, May 17, 2023 (EDT)
