Hello! Don't worry about making mistakes, everyone makes them. As long as you learn from them and not let it get the better of you, you'll be fine. :) | Hello!

#As {{User|Topmaniac}} above said, just put in three tildes (~) after your message, four if you want to include the timestamp, which is recommended. As for creating your own unique signature, you have to create a new page labeled something like [[User:Titanica25/sig]]. For example, mine is located on [[User:Alex95/sig]]. By typing in the three tildes, the signature will automatically be placed. Science! Keep in mind that the signature must fit within the sigbox: | #As {{User|Topmaniac}} above said, just put in three tildes (~) after your message, four if you want to include the timestamp, which is recommended.

#I'm not too experienced with pulling images from the internet (I'd much rather just upload images of my own), but yes, credit should be given if a source is provided. Be sure to check if said image is already on the wiki, though. We don't want duplicates of images floating around. This wiki is a source of information, which includes images. If Nintendo shows an image, it's our job to include it in the galleries. Sometimes we'll place a picture on an article, but only if said pic is related to the subject and it helps viewers understand the subject better. | #I'm not too experienced with pulling images from the internet (I'd much rather just upload images of my own), but yes, credit should be given if a source is provided.

#While many users strive to be promoted (I'm shooting for a Patroller rank myself :P), it doesn't happen very often. Best thing you can do is just keep doing what you're doing.

Don't go too crazy with uploading non-Mario images. These images are usually credited as [[MarioWiki:Personal | Don't go too crazy with uploading non-Mario images. These images are usually credited as [[MarioWiki:Personal Images|Personal Images]], of which, you're only allowed four and the [[:File:2395.gif|Sonic running gif]] you've uploaded would be credited as such. In fact, if the six images you've uploaded (aside from the bananas) were marked as personal images, we'd have to mark two up for deletion. While you may be uploading them for public domain, they should still be classified as personal images under the user who last used them (you). Sorry, that's just how things are. What would you like to do? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:02, 11 December 2016 (EST) | ||
Hmm. Ok. First of all, how do mark them as personal images? And would Mario-Images NOT count as personal images? | Hmm. Ok. First of all, how do mark them as personal images? And would Mario-Images NOT count as personal images? | ||

:To mark an image as personal, you would type {{tem|personal- | :To mark an image as personal, you would type {{tem|personal-image|Titanica25}}, which will mark the image as yours. Again, you can only do this to four of them; the other two will have to be either deleted or put up for someone else to take. | ||
:The [[:File:Super Mario Sunshine Banana.png|banana image]] you've uploaded is fine, as it is Mario-related and it is being used on the [[Banana]] article. But if it isn't used anywhere, then yes, it would count as a personal image. | :The [[:File:Super Mario Sunshine Banana.png|banana image]] you've uploaded is fine, as it is Mario-related and it is being used on the [[Banana]] article.

:As for the other images in my userboxes, they are all uploaded to the Mario Wiki. Most are official artworks, though some are other users images, which they have granted for use by anyone. Just keep including userboxes within your userbox tower template and they'll stack up on the side of the page. There isn't a limit to how many you can add. If you want some, you can look at the source of my page, take one, and mess around with it. | :As for the other images in my userboxes, they are all uploaded to the Mario Wiki.

:Keep in mind, however, that your user page is more of a "just for fun" type of thing. Don't spend too much time on it that it'll distract you from the mainspace articles. If you want to check your work without saving the page, hit the "Show preview" button at the bottom of the editing window.
