Hello, Zippy. 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 Company images Film images Game images Merchandise images Publication images System images Television series images Website images Company media files Film media files Game media files Merchandise media files Publication media files System media files Television series media files Website media 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.

Also, while you have been adding the {{aboutfile}} template correctly for the most part, make sure to remove any sections that are unused, instead of putting N/A. Thanks! Doomhiker (talk) 16:52, 24 January 2019 (EST)

Hello, Zippy. 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.

You have incorrectly forgot to add the proper category again. Please remember the comment above Alex95 in the future. Also, with your latest upload you incorrectly used the {{aboutfile}} template as you forgot to remove the unused perimeters by leaving |3= and |5= despite the fact that they where not used. While the using the aboutfile template is not necessary, if you do use it it must be done as listed above this comment with the unused perimeters being removed. Thanks!

I added a "first officer" image. Did I do it right this time? I really want to avoid these warnings. I've done this on other wiki's but never here before so the rules are very 'different'. -- Zippy (talk) 17:59, 24 January 2019 (EST)
