Music
Hey, welcome! Thanks for trying to help with uploading a song for New Super Mario Bros. U, but there's a few things you should keep in mind.
 * Audio files should be in an .oga format.
 * Audio should be 30 seconds or less as music samples, the entire song should not be uploaded unless it fits in that length.
 * Please categorize and fill out the aboutfile template correctly, as shown here:

Just follow these guidelines and you'll be good to go! 22:37, October 12, 2019 (EDT)

Media file names
Please try to avoid using the file name for the "pipe1=" (the display name) and "description1=" (the description). These should be a name and description for the song, respectively. 23:02, October 26, 2019 (EDT)


 * On a different note, please do not use parentheses { } in file names, as they are against the naming conventions in the Image Use Policy. "Avoid using punctuation (brackets, colons, dashes, etc.), superfluous words, conversational names and any other padding that may make names longer and more complicated than they need to be." Trig - 07:57, October 31, 2019 (EDT)

Moving files
In the future, after moving a file, be sure to change all of the pages that still use the old name (listed under "File usage") to the new name, then mark the old name for deletion with.

Also, regarding your userpage, please avoid using mainspace templates like on userspace (see Userspace). You are free to copy the code from the template page and customize it however you like, though. 08:38, October 28, 2019 (EDT)


 * If you need any other help, I have a guide here. Trig - 08:51, October 28, 2019 (EDT)

Please follow what I've explained above. We don't keep file redirects, so the old file name must be marked for deletion. If you're not sure about anything, don't hesitate to ask. 05:04, November 1, 2019 (EDT)

You need to tag the old names with to let admins know they should be deleted in case they get missed (or at least let an admin know directly, if you moved too many at once for example). To save from moving files, try to be more careful with the file names. 02:16, November 7, 2019 (EST)

Whoops, I moved the file back because you marked the image for deletion before any links were fixed, my bad. Should be the other way around, just so you know. Regardless, "NSMBU Roy Koopa Artwork.png" is not any different of a name than "NSMBU Roy Artwork.png", so I don't think the move was necessary. 10:50, April 23, 2020 (EDT)
 * There are no actual links to "NSMBU Roy Koopa Artwork.png", it's the cache being weird with the file move. Checking the page source shows that file name isn't used. 10:56, April 23, 2020 (EDT)
 * Weird. I don't know why it happened like that.

I deleted the redirects anyway, but "MGG Checkers Gameplay.png" -> "MGG Checkers gameplay.png" doesn't read like a necessary move to me. It was fine as it was, unless there's something about it I don't notice. 00:25, January 25, 2021 (EST)

File extensions
Just to let you know, files should be uploaded in a lowercase extension (png, not PNG). Anything important regarding file usage you can find on Image use policy. 05:07, November 15, 2019 (EST)


 * When uploading files, you can change ogg to oga directly on the upload page. You do not need to move the page post-uploading. Trig - 08:04, February 27, 2020 (EST)


 * I know. 08:19, February 27, 2020

Emulator Screenshots
You may want to retake screenshots of your recent uploads by uploading them in their native resolution. They will look better that way. You can see a guide I made several years ago here. For example, your Super Mario World and Super Mario Land screeenshots could use such an improvement. It's not just limited to those uploads though. -- 12:22, November 19, 2019 (EST)

Second reminder
As Mario jc reminded you above, please be extremely careful about the casing of the extension you add to filenames. They need to be all lowercase as per policy, and yet you have still forgone this multiple times. Please try to be more careful about this, otherwise you might start seeing warnings. 05:03, November 21, 2019 (EST)


 * Yes, and he moved them correctly and marked the redirect for deletion afterwards. This was very likely an accident. 05:08, November 21, 2019 (EST)

Banzai Bill sprite
The sprite you uploaded was aken from the TSR icon, but he borders of the icon are actually smaller than the sprite itself; basically, take it from the sheet, no the icon. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 04:56, November 22, 2019 (EST)

FNC
The file, formerly titled File:Super Mario Land Mario.PNG is now File:SML Mario Standing Sprite.png. It is used on your main page. Have a good one. Trig - 13:14, December 8, 2019 (EST)

When moving files...
Hey, thanks for moving a lot of the files that you are to be appropriate in form. I do request, however that you double check 'What Links Here' after putting a file up for deletion and if it appears on either The RAP test, User talk:RAP/test/3 or one of my three sandboxes, to either replace the name on the RAP test or to remove it from my sandbox. Thank you! You may want to check out the RAP test anyway, as it's basically the image quality tag listed by game instead of by alphabet. Trig Jegman - 09:10, January 19, 2020 (EST)


 * Hey, thanks for the recent file moves. I'm not sure what your system currently is, but if you want to go down through the lists on my sandbox itself you are more than welcome to. Thanks! Trig - 21:33, March 7, 2020 (EST)

Signature
Sorry, you're only allowed up to two images in your signature. 21:44, April 9, 2020 (EDT)
 * Oops. Is this better now?
 * Yep, thanks. 09:16, April 11, 2020 (EDT)

BJADON
I reverted your edits to BJAODN/Games because not only were your quips the kind of "commenting for the sake of commenting" the main page warns about (ie: just explaining the joke or "Oh wow look at this obvious mistake!"), you messed up the italics on one of your last pass and this caused most of the page to display italicized which is not pleasant.

Also if you're going to make a lot of changes to a single article, please do everything in one go as editing header-by-header as you did floods the recent changes. --Glowsquid (talk) 09:45, June 15, 2020 (EDT)

RE: File:M&LSS Mario Bros.png replaced by File:SMA Mario Bros.png
Done, thanks for finding that. 06:14, October 25, 2020 (EDT)

Media
Thanks for helping trimming the media files. If possible, can you add a fade-out at the end for future reuploads? 07:22, November 7, 2020 (EST)
 * I use Clideo. May I use their fade out option? I tested on Donkey Kong title theme and it works great. 07:25, November 7, 2020 (EST)
 * Sure, why not?
 * That's a pretty nifty website too. 07:36, November 7, 2020 (EST)

Coins, Coins, Coins!
Thanks for letting me know. Happy Holidays. I have been attempting an all-coin expedition in SM64 of SM3DAS. 16:06, December 22, 2020 (EST)

Congrats!
Hey, congrats on becoming a patroller! I know it's a bit late but congratulations anyways! 20:44, February 18, 2021 (EST)
