Very good [[Special:ListFiles/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|uploads]]. I don't think most people know that trick that you can play a [[Wii U]] game live, use the built-in web browser, and navigate to a website that has an upload dialog UI (MarioWiki in this case going to [[Special:Upload]]) to upload a screenshot 1280x720 in resolution. I have all sorts of tricks in a [[User:Wildgoosespeeder/sandbox|WIP guide]] all about uploading high quality images. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 17:35, 21 February 2017 (EST) | Very good [[Special:ListFiles/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|uploads]].

:Thanks! I'm not sure how other people get such bad images. This is the only way I know to do it. --{{User:Supermariofan67/sig}} 17:38, 21 February 2017 (EST) | :Thanks!

::Many people take a lazier way of doing things, such as Google Image Search or YouTube snapshots. They had the power all along to upload high quality screenshots and never realized it. There is also the factor of not understanding how an image format works and what format is best for what situation. Recently, it [[MarioWiki:Image use policy|became policy]] not to convert between formats. Don't confuse this with replacing because it is not against policy redoing a picture, which requires more effort than just converting an image to a different format. I replace images frequently. Here's [[Special:ListFiles/Wildgoosespeeder|my uploads]], the [[Special:Log/delete|delete log]], and [[:Category: | ::Many people take a lazier way of doing things, such as Google Image Search or YouTube snapshots.

Hey, since you seem to like harvesting photos for pages, have you considered any other games besides [[Super Mario Galaxy 2|the]] [[Super Mario Galaxy|ones]] [[Super Mario Maker 2|you're]] [[Yoshi Woolly World|doing]] [[Super Mario Odyssey|now]]? Some games I noticed that need help are [[Mario Party 8]] and [[Super Mario Strikers]] [[Mario Strikers Charged|(and Charged, probably)]]. I don't have a clue as to how you do what you do, but I have come to understand that it is a Wii and Gamecube capturing device, so if you would want to do those, there is a lot for ya. Thanks for being great.

Now I have absolutely zero authority or confirmed knowledge on this matter, but personally if I'm changing file name links (one with :File: ) on talk pages such as Alex95's recent bullet bill, I think it may be preferred to alternatively name the file. For example, if the old file was named 'MK old logo.png' and is now Mkold.png, it should be formatted to look like this: <nowiki>[[:File:Mkold.png|:File:MK old logo.png]]</nowiki>. I think this preserves the text of the old image, especially since sometimes the discussion on said talk page is about the file name. Still prevents breaking, but also prevents confusion and changing archives. The only exception I really have for it is [[User talk:RAP/test3/3|the rap test]] because that'd take too much time for a page maybe three people tops look at ever.
