Editing User Talk Pages

I appreciate your removal of images that were replaced here but may I ask you to refrain from doing that? There is a rule here where you shouldn't modify the contents of what someone said on talk pages. I forget where but it is a rule here. Start here. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 18:37, 27 August 2016 (EDT)

I believe this is what you were looking for. Last paragraph in the "Where can I talk to others?" section. 18:41, 27 August 2016 (EDT)

Moving Files

For the time being, can you refrain from moving files? There's a lot of shifting around of file names on pages and redirects to tag for deletion when you do it. It's hard to detect what needs to be modified without replacing the entire contents of the file redirect with {{delete}}. I am not particularly fond of Fawfulfury65 (talk)'s naming scheme all those years ago (65 in the file name), but there are many images to go through and is probably not worth the time to move all of them anyways. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 15:16, 12 April 2017 (EDT)

Can you please stop moving files? I am in the middle of a mass replacement of Donkey Kong Land 2 images! It would make everything easier if you didn't move them right now. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 19:53, 12 April 2017 (EDT)

I wasn't sure if you were going to change File:ND1abril29.jpg‎ to File:Yarn Yoshi.jpg for pages that linked to it so I did it anyways. Based on previous moves, you never did. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 16:43, 16 April 2017 (EDT)

Thanks for waiting this time as I was replacing many Donkey Kong Country images and waiting for deletion to occur. It was just faster for me to change the extension since there were around 80 images. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 19:45, 19 October 2017 (EDT)

Warning

This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (moving pages and forgetting to mark the redirects with {{delete}}) 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.

You've been asked about this before, but appear to have ignored it. When moving files, please mark the original page with {{delete}} so it shows up in Category:To be deleted and a sysop can take care of it. Additionally, you need to change the coding of the file name on the pages they were linked to, as failure to do so will result in broken links or image redirects. 14:36, 22 April 2017 (EDT)

Additionally, you don't need to move every image just to fix some grammar mistakes. Image names like "File:AAnimalB165.png" are confusing, so the rename is acceptable. Though image names like "File:GangplankGalleon.png" are fine as they still describe the subject well enough. 15:40, 22 April 2017 (EDT)

To be fair, it's my fault for naming a file File:AAnimalB165.png and others like it. I actually have a good reason for it. I was mass replacing static GIFs and wrongful use of JPEG with high quality PNGs. Keeping track of ~50 changed file names would have been a nightmare editing all affected pages (like 10-20 different pages). To make things easy, I just created redlinks by changing extension only (*.gif, *.jpg, and *.jpeg to *.png) and uploading by clicking those redlinks. MarioWiki:Image use policy bullet point 2 was not violated in the process. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 15:55, 22 April 2017 (EDT)

Again, images that explain the subject well enough in the name, such as File:RazorRidge.png, File:Yoshi Story Surprise.png, etc. do not need to be moved. It is unnecessary. Please do not move files if they do not have to be moved, or else you will receive a last warning for continuing to ignore advice. 20:38, 24 April 2017 (EDT)

Last warning for continuing to ignore the warning above.

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.

You have already been reminded about this a few times before, but have appeared to have ignored it. Please do NOT move image files that explain them well enough in the name, such as File:EllieBarrel.png or File:EndFlag.png. This is your last chance. If you continue to ignore this advice, you will be blocked temporarily from editing the wiki. – Owencrazyboy9 (talk) 15:52, 4 May 2017 (EDT)

Image renamed

As seen from above, you been reminded and warned about changing file names without replacing them on pages. Please remember this or you'll be block next time. L151

To add, it's best to take it one level at a time instead of editing all pages at once and then perform the moves. Start at Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country) and then use the left or right double arrows to navigate to the next level. Remember, some of the images are being used elsewhere. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 16:41, 22 October 2017 (EDT)

Ooh lets not do that

Hi. Please don't edit my sandbox, especially when I'm working. Even if there are dead links. Thaaaaanks. Trig - 09:09, December 4, 2019 (EST)

OK, I'll (try to) remember it! Thank you! Sincerely, Count Luigi (talk) 09:10, December 4, 2019 (EST)
