Hello, RubenGamer6485. 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, RubenGamer6485. 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.

Hello, thanks for your recent upload. However, you forgot to categorize your upload, as when you upload an image you should add the proper category, for example, as your uploaded image was a Game & Watch Image, the correct category for said image would be the [[Category:Game & Watch Images]]. Finally, you need to add the {{aboutfile}} template describing the source of your image, the subject of the image, etc when you upload. As an additional note, when adding images to an article, you can add |insertnumberherepx to the image's code to change the size of the image to better suit the article. Thanks!

You are adding the proper {{aboutfile}} template, however please remember to properly add a category, which you are still forgetting to do. Also, you can change the name of the file when uploading so that it is more descriptive in nature instead of being random letters and numbers like with this file. Continuing to forget to add categories may lead to future warnings. Still, good job on uploading images. Doomhiker (talk)Artwork of a Topmini from Super Mario Galaxy 18:43, 30 December 2018 (EST)
