Uploading

Hello. Just letting you know that when uploading files, in addition to a brief description, they should be added with an image category and license, similar to how I've done it here. I would suggest using the default Special:Upload function for this instead of the text editor's upload function that you used for your recent uploads as it's easier to add the appropriate information.

  • You'll find an image category through the subcategories in Category:MarioWiki images. So for a Super Smash Bros. Ultimate image, from Category:MarioWiki images, you'd find it by going to "Images by game" --> "Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Images", then you simply add that as a category link to the file: [[Category:Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Images]]. When you upload on Special:Upload, this should replace {{uncategorized}}.
  • A license is added depending on what type of image it is. On Special:Upload, you simply select it from the "Licensing" drop-down menu. If it's a game screenshot, for example, just select "Video game screenshot". K.K. Slider costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 22:44, November 4, 2019 (EST)

In addition, if there's an image you don't need anymore, just mark it for deletion by adding {{delete}} on the file page. However, if you have a better version of an image and both images are the same file type (png, jpg etc.), you can simply use the "Upload a new version of this file" under "File history" on the existing image's page.
