The template {{tem|uncategorized}} was a quick idea {{user|Porplemontage}} and I came up with to help us catch newly uploaded uncategorized files. The idea behind it is to not have it tag the file being uploaded (default it shows up in [[Special:Upload]] to better catch files not being categorized). I see you are now inserting the category. Just remove the template. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 23:21, 25 October 2016 (EDT) | The template {{tem|uncategorized}} was a quick idea {{user|Porplemontage}} and I came up with to help us catch newly uploaded uncategorized files.

btw, "Images" is capitalized in the category names. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:05, 6 August 2018 (EDT) | |||
Hey, please recall Alex95's comment above. The "I" in "Images" must be capitalised in the category name. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 18:21, 13 February 2019 (EST) | |||

But the images I replaced were already low quality in the first place, so it could only be improving them, right? Or is there something I simply don't understand? --[[User:Green Mario|Green Mario]] ([[User talk:Green Mario|talk]]) 18:36, 15 March 2017 (EDT) | But the images I replaced were already low quality in the first place, so it could only be improving them, right?

:Don't use YouTube. Simple as that. Just submit screenshots [[User:Wildgoosespeeder/sandbox#Wii U|like so]]. Once there is a practical way to clean capture screenshots from the Wii U (or an emulator reaches a level of comparable quality), it makes replacing much easier because by definition, JPEGs are lower quality. See [[MarioWiki:Image use policy]]. Technically, using YouTube isn't against MarioWiki policy, but if it were (and I wish it were), I find it on a similar level to creating stub articles, which is [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style|against policy]]. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 19:09, 17 March 2017 (EDT) | :Don't use YouTube.

Well, I still don't fully understand, but that's alright. I'll take your word for it. Also, sidenote, has there been any issues with me and creating stub articles? I'd just like to know. --[[User:Green Mario|Green Mario]] ([[User talk:Green Mario|talk]]) 20:32, 17 March 2017 (EDT) | |||
:YouTube videos use encoders for the video file, likely [[Wikipedia:Moving Picture Experts Group|MPEG]]/[[Wikipedia:H.261|H.261]]/[[Wikipedia:H.262|H.262]]/[[Wikipedia:H.263|H.263]]/[[Wikipedia:H.264|H.264]]/[[Wikipedia:H.265|H.265]] or anything similar. This format is the [[Wikipedia:JPEG|JPEG]] of video files, meaning lossy quality. Very old uploads used [[Wikipedia:FLV|FLV]]. | |||

:It is possible a few stubs slipped under the radar of sysops or a sysop saw it as a legitimate effort. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 20:43, 17 March 2017 (EDT) | |||
== New version upload == | |||
You can't upload a newer version of a file if they have different file extensions (.jpg, .png, etc.) It would have to be uploaded separately in that case. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 20:13, 14 February 2019 (EST) | |||
== Navigation template / categories == | |||
In the future when creating a new article, remember to add a navigation template and category. The respective sections in [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style]] explain more. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 00:24, November 10, 2019 (EST) | |||
