Image category[edit]

Hello, The64thGamer. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file into a subject category. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:
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, images related to the game Super Mario World would use: [[Category:Super Mario World images]]or one it its subcategories. Media files would use: [[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. If you're uploading directly from the editor (the image icon at the top of the text box), I would strongly suggest uploading through Special:Upload instead (the link is also found under "tools" on the left navigation pane labelled "Upload file"). Please remember to add the appropriate category and licensing as I've done here, so for a photo of Mario no Photopi at an event, you'd add [[Category:Mario no Photopi Images]] and the {{promophoto}} license (again, it's much easier through Special:Upload; you simply select "Promotional photo" in the "Licensing" drop-down menu).

Make sure you use your images when you upload them too, otherwise they'll be subject to deletion. Thanks. Mario JC 09:02, May 27, 2019 (EDT)
