File categories[edit]

Hello, Kriskloon. 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.

To clarify, don't add {{screenshot}} as the image category. It should be: [[Category:Super Mario Bros. Wonder images]]
(based on the game it's from, not what kind of image it is, and in square brackets instead of curly, with "Category:" at the start and "images" at the end). Mario (Gold) costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 09:07, December 23, 2023 (EST)

Almost got it; as I said, use square brackets, not curly brackets. Mario (Gold) costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 07:15, December 24, 2023 (EST)
