==Names in other languages==
Hi. What's your source for your names in other languages? I ask because you've [[Special:Diff/3066980|re-added]] that French name of Paper Macho Bob-omb, which isn't named in-game and comes from internal data, and is not identified as a Parabomb in the English or Japanese files. If it is unofficial, it isn't allowed here. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 21:59, November 15, 2020 (EST)

Hi, I'm sorry, I read too fast wehn uploading. I'll take care of that now. Thanks ! {{unsigned|PiNGOUiN}}

:The category needs to be more specific than "Game images" and should be the actual game, remove any lines that you're not using like "Other versions (use file link)", and you don't need to type {{tem|game-screenshot}} if you already selected it underneath ([[Special:Diff/3860726|see here]]). Also, make sure you sign your comments on talk pages with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>), even on your own talk page. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:39, March 3, 2023 (EST)

Look at [[Special:Diff/3902428|this edit]] for how a category should be added. It only needs to be "Category:(game title) images" in square brackets, no more specific than that. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 02:23, April 29, 2023 (EDT)

Please make sure to give your files descriptive file names, like "(media) (subject).png" (e.g. something like "TSMBM Bullet Bill.png" instead of just "Bulletbill.png"). Also, most of your Mario movie mages are very blurry/low-quality; try to avoid using low-quality videos for your images or enlarging the images, as this makes the blurriness more evident. If you have access to the film digitally, you can just screenshot from there. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:49, June 8, 2023 (EDT)

Sorry, but I think it's better to have low quality images instead just nothing, if someone find a better quality, then he can put it over mine. I don't see the problem to fill the empty case of the wiki, even if it's low quality. At least, there is something [[User:PiNGOUiN|PiNGOUiN]] ([[User talk:PiNGOUiN|talk]]) 11:16, June 9, 2023 (EDT)

:I agree with that, I'm saying you should try to find better quality images yourself to start if you can. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:50, June 9, 2023 (EDT)

Make sure the categories added to files are always "images" categories (so any image related to ''Mario Party'' is always "Category:Mario Party images"). "Characters" categories are only for character articles, not character images. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 09:35, June 16, 2023 (EDT)

== [[MarioWiki:Image use policy|JPG to PNG]] ==

I don't know how you're cropping the scans, but if you're saving the scans and cropping from them through a program, in the future, make sure they're in the same format as the scans were (so jpg, not png) as otherwise it can bloat the file size. This was evident with the version you uploaded for [[:File:MP1Groupartworkwithoutthelogo.jpg]], which was 3 MB larger; the smaller ones like the Boo and Dice Block aren't as drastic but they build up as more are uploaded. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:11, June 18, 2023 (EDT)

Yeah for the logo i converted my file because in the Gallery of Mario party there are a message which say that we need to convert jpg to png, so I don't know. But for Boo and Dice Block I don't converted my files [[User:PiNGOUiN|PiNGOUiN]] ([[User talk:PiNGOUiN|talk]]) 10:16, June 18, 2023 (EDT)

:It means to replace the JPGs with any official BMPs if available (which are converted to PNGs), not to convert the JPGs themselves to PNGs. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:23, June 18, 2023 (EDT)

Sorry to bother you in both discord and even here, but I use my computer now and found those images from Nintendo HK were still in JPG. May I know if you change the format of images during your crop again or you just found them as PNG?

And about the problem with file links, for example, [https://images.ctfassets.net/o5v89n4kg6h4/2E6P9817CJlsNkxxSJnJRT/e630a987c0e52152f56f313d15815fb1/_________________________________230622.jpg?w=1400&fm=webp this is a file link], and if you try to remove weird suffix in the link, [https://images.ctfassets.net/o5v89n4kg6h4/2E6P9817CJlsNkxxSJnJRT/e630a987c0e52152f56f313d15815fb1/_________________________________230622.jpg here's the result, which original image displayed in normal]. {{User:Blhte/sig}} 17:22, June 21, 2023 (EDT)

== SMBE refs ==

Remember that ''[[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia]]'' should be italicised, and there should be a space before the opening parentheses when you add a game label for a foreign name, after the reference. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:14, July 2, 2023 (EDT)

== Capitalisation ==

Avoid capitalising words in captions that aren't proper nouns or the first word of the caption, and make sure to keep them consistent with the rest of the gallery (the other images write "box art" in all lowercase, which is how it should be written). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:15, July 17, 2023 (EDT)

^ This also applies to section headers ("Cartridge Art" should be "Cartridge art").

Also, if you're replacing an image, the old image can be marked for deletion with {{tem|delete}} with a link to the new image in it (<code><nowiki>{{delete|[[:File:Example.png]]}}</nowiki></code>). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:03, July 31, 2023 (EDT)

-[[User:PiNGOUiN|PiNGOUiN]] ([[User talk:PiNGOUiN|talk]]) 08:32, July 31, 2023 (EDT)okay thx a lot
-You're still capitalising "Art" in section headers; it should be lowercase. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:03, August 6, 2023 (EDT)
-Again you're capitalising ordinary words like "Key" and "Pre-release". Only if it's the first word of the caption, or if the word is a proper noun (like a country/language name, game title, character name etc.), should it be capitalised. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:26, June 26, 2024 (EDT)

-== "Club Nintendo" ==
-Only italicise words that are part of the name, [[Special:Diff/4249336|like this]] (so just ''Club Nintendo''). "French" and "magazine" or "poster" are not part of the name and should be outside the italics (again, don't capitalise non-proper nouns like "Poster"), and it should link directly to the magazine page, not the disambiguation page. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 03:03, June 6, 2024 (EDT)
-I don't agree with you, those artwork are in a lot of Club Nintendo magazine, not only the french one, I feel like the disambiguation page is the proper one [[User:PiNGOUiN|PiNGOUiN]] ([[User talk:PiNGOUiN|talk]]) 12:57, June 6, 2024 (EDT)

-FYI, [[Shogakukan]] is considered Nintendo's official Japanese guidebook [[MarioWiki:Naming#Acceptable sources for naming|licensee]] (until around the start of the Switch era).

-== Names from French SMBE ==
-The French ''Super Mario Encyclopedia'' is an official publication and should regarded as such.
-I know that the English release has a bad reputation, but that does not mean that every release of the book should be condemned.
-Please don't remove names on the sole basis that it comes from SMBE, especially it is the only known French name (for example, [[Moneybag (enemy)|Moneybag]]).
-Just because the name is retained in English does not mean that it is wrong; numerous enemies in early Mario games retained their English names.
-By the way, I would not consider ''Prima Games'' guide books to be a more reliable source; they are known for making up a lot of names. {{User:Jdtendo/sig}} 23:47, September 26, 2024 (EDT)
-Frérot tu peux clairement voir que les noms sont pas bons soit objectif. J'ai jamais dis que toutes les versions étaient reprochables, juste là tu vois bien que la version Française fais partis des versions erronées.
-T'as des tas de noms qui sont issue de l'anglais ou qui sont mi-anglais mi-français, on dirait vrm que le livre à été traduit de n'importe où, en passant ton argument est pas recevable parce que tu vois bien que peu importe l'ancienneté de l'ennemi, sur la version italienne ils reprennent pas les noms anglais sur tout les ennemis comme [[Bookend]] et [[Moneybag]] ou même avec les ennemies plus récent comme [[Tracks (enemy)]] (Il y en a où c'est issue de l'anglais aussi et il faudrait l'enlever mais ceux que j'ai cité sont bons). Et y'en a encore plein d'autres t'as juste à ouvrir le livre mdrrr t'as cru que je l'avais pas ? Donc si, ça relève clairement d'une erreur, et quand bien même ça serait pas le cas il faudrait au minima une autre source pour confirmer quelque chose d'aussi absurde.
-Et pour le prima, au moins comparé au SMBE, y'a pas de noms en anglais ou de ressemblance entre les noms. J'essaye toujours de faire les choix les plus objectifs concernant les noms et sur qlq ennemis tu peux bien voir que y'a pas que le prima qui les donnent, ils sont officialisé par nintendo comme sur [[Spiky Topman]] ou encore [[Launch Star]]. A moins que t'es autre chose pour démentir la version française je pense qu'on peut se mettre d'accord sur le fait qu'elle soit pas autant falsifié que le SMBE.
-Soit plus objectif la prochaine fois avant de m'envoyer un mess stp. Bonne journée
-(D'ailleurs je sais pas ce que tu racontes mais je retire que ceux qui sont issue de l'anglais, je retire pas tout sous prétexte que ça vient de smbe) [[User:PiNGOUiN|PiNGOUiN]] ([[User talk:PiNGOUiN|talk]])

-== Ten and Shun ==
-Hi, it seems you uploaded solo artwork for Ten and Shun. How do you know which character is named which? We only know which one is Ecks because of a dialogue bubble in the overview trailer, but the other names came from website descriptions that never indicated who was who.

-==Re:Regarding SMBE French names==
-It looks like [[#Names from French SMBE|Jtendo]] had a similar sentiment. Like I said, I think it's best discussed on the [[Talk:Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia#Names|book's talk page]]. It took [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive/52#Citing the Super Mario Encyclopedia|a massive community decision]] to decide what to do about Dark Horse and their translation. Enough evidence was compiled near the book's release, one of the translators was confronted about it on social media, and we know for a fact that the wiki was directly referenced for the English version (later Dark Horse publications like the ''Sonic Encyclo-speed-ia'' would give thanks to wikis - and before it all came to a head here, some of us had a pretty good idea that ''Mario Encyclopedia'' was not the only time similar things have happened). The wiki should likewise have a community consensus about the other publications' translations before making major mainspace edits. If you have serious suspicions with the French version of the book, you should really talk to {{User|Mister Wu}} or {{User|Glowsquid}} about it. They've either interacted with people involved in other translations or know of others who have vetted through the book's other translations, and where things last stood, they helped determine back then that the other translations were not nearly as egregious.
