Italicise[edit]

Hello! When writing game titles, please remember italicise them by adding to apostrophes on either side of the title. For example, ''Super Mario Odyssey'' creates Super Mario Odyssey. Thanks! --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros. Wii.TheFlameChomp (talk) 08:25, 26 November 2017 (EST)

Thank you for the hint! Will do in the future. --YeeMeYee (talk) 06:57, 27 November 2017 (EST)

Images[edit]

Hello, YeeMeYee. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly use the {{aboutfile}} template. What you were doing looks like this, and it is an inconvenience for other users to fix up the template. It is simple to learn how to format it correctly. The pre-loaded coding is shown below.

{{aboutfile
|1=Subject of the image
|2=Where you found the image
|3=Artist
|4=Describe edits, if any
|5=Other versions (use file link)
}}

Just replace the necessary parts with that corresponding information, and remove the entire line of the variable(s) you don't use. If you do not wish to use the template at all, then it is acceptable to simply remove it before you upload the file. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue using {{aboutfile}} incorrectly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Hello, YeeMeYee. 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.

Just leaving these here as your recent uploads left the {{aboutfile}} empty and were not categorized. Please go over them before continuing to upload. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 10:20, 27 November 2017 (EST)

Whoops sorry! Will do in the future. --YeeMeYee (talk) 10:53, 27 November 2017 (EST)

Uploads[edit]

Just to let you know, regarding the images you uploaded (especially File:SMO - Bitefrost Stage 1.png), it would be best to simply upload them with the backgrounds intact (rectangular cropping to trim any unnecessary parts of the image can be done if needed), and in the original JPG format (assuming they were captured directly from the game), as converting from JPG to PNG, directly cropping out the subject of the image and applying transparency is prohibited according to policy due to the rough edges the resulting image can leave behind.

Hmm ok. Some research: Quoting M&SG from that "6-year old passed proposal" that you added to the rules in *ahum* *drum rolls*

October this year

Like literally a month ago. “I’ve been noticing that a good number of JPEG artworks were being replaced by PNG artworks with transparent backgrounds. However, a lot of those images look quite ugly”. Agreeably, it has been put to nicer words in the rules. So what you’re basically saying is, the artwork I’ve cropped and turned into transparent pictures do not meet the expectations of your personal vision of ‘beautiful’ and you’re telling me that now, after uploading e l e v e n pictures in the EXACT same way? Yeah, you could say that I’m a "bit" offended. Not at all because I do not respect the rules, just the timing... It's bold. I spent a lot of time trying to get those png's reasonable without the rough edges you speak of, because heck, I do indeed understand the rule and I agree to some extent. All I’m trying to do here is better that image of transparent pictures and contribute to this wiki in a positive way, so yeah, this is a major let down for me… It feels like my work is invalidated. Despite my uh... explosive response, I will gladly take your criticism to heart. I must say the rule's a bit nitpicky, but nevermind, I understand. If deletion is your goal, please do, the faster the better :) --YeeMeYee (talk) 07:46, 28 November 2017 (EST)
They were uploaded within a single day in my time zone, so that's why I only just picked up on them. And I never said it was for the sake of meeting my own expectations. It's a rule that was agreed upon and is actively enforced by the community, as we've had numerous cases where such modifications only led to a bloat in file size and overall worsening in quality, so it's advised that those images should be uploaded as is. The general intention of your uploads is still appreciated and was in good faith, so don't take my comment as total invalidation to your work. They can simply be replaced with the original JPGs, if you still have them. Sorry you went through the effort of cropping them out.
