Placing images[edit]

Welcome to the wiki! Looks like you're having some trouble with placing images. You don't need to place the full url on the page, just the image file name. To add one to an article, you would type something like [[File:Image.png|thumb]]. To a gallery, all you need is the image name, omitting "File:", so just Image.png| between the gallery tags. More information can be found at Help:Image and Help:Gallery. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:34, 21 June 2018 (EDT)

Preview button[edit]

Please try not to edit your userpage (or any page, for that matter) repeatedly in a short time. If you want to check how a page looks before saving, click the "Show preview" button next to the "Save page" button. This way, you can continue making edits while checking your work, and you don't fill the recent changes. Once the page looks how you want it to, you can save then.

Additionally, you can mark minor stuff (typo fixes, etc.) by clicking the Minor Edit check box above the buttons. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 19:33, 27 July 2018 (EDT)

Personal images[edit]

Hello! When uploading personal images for your userpage, please add {{personal-image|Alex 2018}} to the file. Also, just so you know, the policy states that every user can have up to four personal images, meaning you are one away from the maximum amount. Thanks! --A sprite of a Flame Chomp from New Super Mario Bros. Wii.TheFlameChomp (talk) 14:56, 28 July 2018 (EDT)

Personal-image.png

You currently have too many personal images.

Users are limited to a maximum of five personal images, which can be used on your user page and/or for a signature on talk pages (see the personal image policy for details). Please select the personal images you would like to keep and mark all others for deletion using the {{delete}} template. If you have not relinquished your extra images within one week of receiving this notice, five images will be selected for retention at random, and the rest will be deleted. If you continue uploading more images and exceeding the limit, then a warning will be issued.

You have hit five, which is one more than is allowed:

There are two ways to salvage this situation. One is to use one of your images in a signature, and then tag that image as {{personal-image-sig}}. The other way is external hosting, such as Imgur or Photobucket. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 21:47, 29 July 2018 (EDT)

This again. You have seven personal images, and you are only allowed five. Please choose two of these to be deleted.

Additionally, the personal-image template is meant for the images, not your actual userpage, so please remove that as well. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:01, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

Even more additionally, you've been focusing solely on your user page since you've become autoconfirmed. Please edit more mainspace articles. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:08, 15 August 2018 (EDT)
That goes for the one you just uploaded as well. Continue uploading and you'll find some images deleted, along with a warning. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:26, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

The two images you've selected have been deleted. If you wish to upload more images, please choose another to delete or overwrite it with a different image. And again, please focus on the mainspace articles. Thanks. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:34, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

Warning.svg
This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (Continuing to upload more personal images after being told to stop) on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site.
If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it.

For the above. Continue, and it will eventually lead to a ban. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 17:41, 15 August 2018 (EDT)

Lastwarn.svg
This is your last warning. The next time you break the rules in any way, you will be blocked from editing the Super Mario Wiki.
If you feel this last warning was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Please see MarioWiki:Personal images. You are only allowed five, and you reuploaded an already deleted image after being told not to keep uploading personal images. If you wish to upload more, mark one for deletion first or upload a new version of one by going to the image and clicking the link on the bottom of the revision history.

Additionally, please focus more on actual articles. Upload another personal image without following this, and you will be temporarily banned. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 13:34, 3 September 2018 (EDT)
