::You can actually do that before uploading the image; in the "summary" section of the File Description just put '''<nowiki>[[Category:Luigi's Mansion Images]]</nowiki>''' and then select "Video game screenshot" from the menu below it. It gives the same result and makes it a lot easier so that other people don't have to go back and add it. --{{User:Driftmaster130/sig}} 20:55, 3 May 2016 (EDT) | ::You can actually do that before uploading the image; in the "summary" section of the File Description just put '''<nowiki>[[Category:Luigi's Mansion Images]]</nowiki>''' and then select "Video game screenshot" from the menu below it.

:::No problem. Please do it when uploading from now on though, I see you've already been told of this same issue in the past and I don't want you to get a warning. --{{User:Driftmaster130/sig}} 19:05, 4 May 2016 (EDT) | :::No problem.

Hi! We're currently in a state of disagreement about the Joy-Con wrist straps. You say there are distinct left and right straps for the Joy-Con, although this is not the case. There is a plus on one side of them, and a minus on the other side matching the plus or minus buttons when attaching the Joy-Con. {{User:Lakituthequick/sig}} 13:46, 7 January 2018 (UTC) | Hi!

:So what is the difference then? What makes that one is not supposed to go on the other? {{User:Lakituthequick/sig}} 07:04, 8 January 2018 (UTC) | |||
== Italics == | |||
Hey. Just a reminder to please remember to ''italicise'' game and series titles. You've been on the wiki for a while now so I had assumed you would've been accustomed to it by now, but there have been several instances where you forget to use them. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 20:50, 5 February 2018 (EST) | |||
== "References should go after periods, commas, parentheses, etc." == | |||
Under what style guide? [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style|The wiki's own guide]] doesn't mention it, and meanwhile, [https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/ MLA] and [https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/02/ APA] both include them before periods and other punctuation marks. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 11:30, 9 March 2018 (EST) | |||
:That's not an answer to my question. If there's no backing to enforce it, it doesn't seem appropriate to do so. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 12:07, 9 March 2018 (EST) | |||
== Gallery Photo == | |||
I know i could have updated it but it wouldn't let and keep showing an error | |||
== Audio Formats == | |||
I noticed that an upload of yours was using FLAC and you used a website that {{SITENAME}} doesn't recommend. You can use software that {{SITENAME}} doesn't list, but I thought I'd show you converters better suited for [[Special:Upload|uploading]]: [[Help:Media]]. I corrected your upload: [[:File:Nintendo 64DD start up.oga]]. For my upload, I used [[User:Wildgoosespeeder/sandbox|an emulator]] to capture the audio and Audacity to import the audio. Exported as an OGG Vorbis file. {{SITENAME}} keeps it strictly Vorbis for audio to keep audio uploads simple and compatible with most web browsers. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 22:46, 2 May 2018 (EDT) | |||
:There is a problem with uploading {{wp|MP3}}s and that is you need a license to encode them for use through downloading. It's just legality at this point. OGG {{wp|Vorbis}} is royalty-free and license-free. The audio plug-in I chose in the N64 emulator will try and mimic the real hardware's audio capabilities, but I outputted into an uncompressed WAV file before converting to OGG Vorbis. A YouTube video uses a lossy audio codec. I believe {{wp|Advanced Audio Coding|AAC audio}}. I can't recommend using YouTube over an emulator for this reason. Even though it applies to images, I am trying to follow [[MarioWiki:Image use policy|policy]] in this case for audio as well. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 22:20, 4 May 2018 (EDT) | |||
== Mario Party 64DD == | |||
Perhaps I'm uneducated, but I don't get what the video reference [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Nintendo_64DD&curid=17870&diff=2435145&oldid=2431962 in your recent edit] is supposed to show. What is error 31? I'm not seeing anything that actually confirms the use of the 64DD, for either ''Mario Party'' or ''Mario Party 2''. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 00:13, 13 May 2018 (EDT) | |||
:So long story short, simply because the Disk Drive recognizes the game means that there was supposed to be something more to it? That's a really interesting find! {{User:Alex95/sig}} 20:32, 15 May 2018 (EDT) | |||
== Re:Template:Poll == | |||
It's all been fixed now- it may take a while to show up on your end. Thank you for letting us know! {{User:Pyro Guy/sig}} 02:34, 20 November 2018 (EST) | |||
== Infoboxes == | |||
We don't update the list of appearances in the infoboxes (characters, races, etc.) until after the game is fully released in a region. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 20:52, May 25, 2019 (EDT) | |||
