| Hello. Sorry. I'm new to this website and am still trying to figure out how to properly submit things.

| A [[MarioWiki:Patrollers|patroller]] (staff of {{SITENAME}}) issued reminders and you ignored them. Also, check [[Gallery:Mario]] for your [[Mario]]-related uploads (see {{tem|galleries}} for all galleries). It's hard to identify uncategorized or unsourced images or using vague descriptions. [[:File:Mariobobomb.png]], we had [[:File:Mario (with Bob-omb) - Misc artwork.png]]. We might already have something and don't want to duplicate uploads. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 20:28, 20 October 2017 (EDT) | | A [[MarioWiki:Patrollers|patroller]] (staff of {{SITENAME}}) issued reminders and you ignored them.

| I apologize. I wanted to submit images but I am still confused if I am doing it properly. I thought I was doing it correctly but apparently I wasn't. I think I need to reread the guidelines and posting techniques. I hope I am replying to this post correctly.
| |
| :I only issued the warning to get your attention. It seemed as though you were ignoring one of our staff members. As for uploading, this isn't like a file sharing and hosting website ({{wp|Imgur}} or {{wp|Photobucket}}). For older images, we likely have it uploaded already. {{SITENAME}} is a bit more restrictive about potential duplicate uploads. To find images categorically, read the blue box. The green box is about how to deal with {{tem|aboutfile}}. We don't need to do things [[MarioWiki:Once and only once|more than once]]. The template {{tem|galleries}} contains all known galleries of {{SITENAME}}. If your upload is a different format than the one you found, it is likely a replacement, or goes against [[MarioWiki:Image use policy|our policy]]. The rule prohibiting submitting JPEGs converted to PNGs is relatively new. This also applies trying to force transparency onto JPEGs. This doesn't apply to trying to replace an older JPEG with a clean PNG version. That's acceptable. I recently did this with [[Special:ListFiles/Wildgoosespeeder|Donkey Kong Country images]] ([[:File:RopeyRumbleGBC.png]] replaced [[:File:RopeyRumbleGBC.jpg]]). --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 22:36, 20 October 2017 (EDT)

| ::First off, [[:File:Brickhit.png]] will be deleted because [[:File:Mariobrick2.png]] is mirrored identical and the latter is sharper and cleaner. Second, you converted to PNG to apply transparency, which is [[MarioWiki:Image use policy|against policy]] and a [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Archive 27#Artwork Transparency Issues|passed proposal years ago]] prohibits applying transparency to JPEGs. JPEG isn't capable of transparency, so it must be saved in a format that supports it. So the images you want to insert are [[:File:Marioball.png]] and [[:File:Mariobrick2.jpg]]. Thirdly, you should be able to, unless you [[MarioWiki:Autoconfirmed users|aren't autoconfirmed]]. If you are autoconfirmed, you should be able to edit galleries. Just follow the pattern of [{{fullurl:Gallery:Mario artwork and scans|action=edit}} other image embed examples]. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 01:40, 21 October 2017 (EDT)

| :::It's probably better to upload images unaltered if they aren't your own work (see [[:File:Mariobrick3.jpg]] and [[:File:Mariobrick2.jpg]]). --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 02:09, 21 October 2017 (EDT)
| |
| :::Also you're adding images that have seem to been rushed and badly cropped. {{User:L151/sig}}
| |
| If you feel like people keep pestering you, don't feel that way, because I have one more question. Where is the source of all [[Special:ListFiles/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|your uploads]]? This will help the rest of the editors decide how to categorize the images further from just licensing information. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 14:30, 22 October 2017 (EDT)
| |
| :I wonder if doing a [https://images.google.com Google Image Search] in a particular way will find the original source. Click the camera icon on the right side of the field where you would type in a search query. Then upload the image and Google will try to find matches (it also has a URL search option but you won't be using that). The search isn't perfect. It is best to not upload saved works that you modified later. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 15:28, 22 October 2017 (EDT)

| {{SITENAME}} covers [[Play Nintendo]], so [[:Category:Play Nintendo Images]] exists. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 00:12, 20 November 2017 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| Please remember to add categories related to the game the image is from if possible, such as [[:Category:Super Mario Party Images]], or it may result in a last warning in the future. Thanks! --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 14:28, 5 October 2018 (EDT)

| == Reuploading ==
| |
|
| |
| There wasn't a need to add a background. When you reupload an image, you may need to press Ctrl + F5 to clear the cache and refresh the image. Sorry I didn't say this sooner before you uploaded a different image. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:26, 22 October 2017 (EDT)
| |
| :While viewing the image you originally uploaded, press Ctrl and F5. The image should refresh to the most recent upload. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:50, 22 October 2017 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| ==Changing file names==
| |
| Reuploading doesn't do that; to do that, you have to move the image. Just don't move an image if its title already makes sense. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 17:53, 25 October 2017 (EDT)

| == Uploads ==
| |
|
| |
| Hi. I'm curious about where you're getting your uploads. It seems a number of them have been poorly cropped and applied with bad transparency (as evident in the white pixels when placed on a black background, shown below), and even converted from [https://orig00.deviantart.net/3912/f/2016/356/6/7/princess_peach_s_bully_goat_by_ferrarif12berlinetta-dasjqif.jpg JPG] to [[:File:Peachpresenting2d.png|PNG]], against what's been told to you above. If that's the case, please just upload them as they were ''originally'' found in the source, with any backgrounds intact and the original format, as modifying them in any of these ways goes against [[MarioWiki:Image use policy|policy]]. Again, you've been reminded about this already; if this continues, you may receive another warning. Thanks for understanding. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 00:58, 7 November 2017 (EST)

| |
| :That's okay. Regular cropping is fine, but otherwise it's best to upload it as is. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 03:35, 7 November 2017 (EST)

|
| |
| ::I meant like trimming out the unnecessary parts of an image (borders etc.), or cutting out a smaller (rectangular) part of a larger image (e.g. [[:File:KCDeluxe-SMLPipeFist.png]]).

| |
| Did [[:File:Yoshi standard shaded.png|this]] originally have a white background? There's still some white space between Yoshi's feet. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:43, 12 November 2017 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| :Okay, but I thought I made it clear that if there was a background, and if it was JPG, leave them as they are. Why are you still making changes to the images? {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:56, 12 November 2017 (EST)

| == About this image of Toadette... ==
| |
|
| |
| Hey, TheVixter, can you tell me where you got [https://www.mariowiki.com/File:Toadetterun2d.png this image in question], by any chance? Because it almost looks the same like what we saw "status wise" related to ''Super Mario Run'' when we see about representing Toadette in the game. Let me know soon; thanks for your time. --M. C. - [[User:MeritC|Profile]] | [[User_talk:MeritC|Talk Page]] 10:23, 14 December 2017 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| Just letting you know that if you want to link to an image already on the wiki, you would type <nowiki>[[:File:<name>]]</nowiki>. For example, [[:File:Mario.png]]. Note this coding is not necessary in galleries. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 14:06, 14 December 2017 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| == Image sources ==
| |
|
| |
| Could you list the exact and more specific sources for your recent uploads? For [[:File:Yoshi3dfront.png|this one]] in particular, since it came from [[Super Mario Backpack Buddies]], was a key ring attached to the original artwork? {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 00:10, 30 August 2018 (EDT)
