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)

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)

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)
