Removal of info

Hi, sorry to bother you, but your recent upload of Tennis Daisy 64 artwork is not an official Nintendo artwork, it's actually from Vinfreild, go to deviantart and you'll see this artwork in their page. As such this artwork is considered fan artwork, which is against rules in this wiki, no matter how close the artwork is to the original, thanks. Edit: Oops! Forgot my name:--CastleResearch (talk) 14:47, 6 February 2016 (EST)

I had no clue it would matter that much. I guess I will have to contact Nintendo for the actual originals. Darn. Marino13 (talk) 21:30, 6 February 2016 (EST)

Aboutfile reminder

Hello, Marino13. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly use the {{aboutfile}} template. What you were doing looks like this, and it is an inconvenience for other users to fix up the template. It is simple to learn how to format it correctly. The pre-loaded syntax is shown below. {{aboutfile |1=Subject of the image |2=Where you found the image |3=Artist |4=Describe edits, if any |5=Other versions (use file link) }} Just replace the necessary parts with that corresponding information, and remove the entire line for the parameter(s) you don't use. A description of the image subject (parameter 1) should always be included, even if it's just a few words. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue using {{aboutfile}} incorrectly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Hello, please remember to format your preloaded aboutfile templates properly. When you upload a file, you will see that template. Fill out the appropriate sections, delete unused ones, and remember to categorize your images according to game (in Mario Party images, add Category:Mario Party Images to the end). You can delete the aboutfile altogether, but I recommend you learn how it works. It's not convenient for others to fix it for you whenever you upload images.

Okay, thank you Baby Luigi, I'll remember next time.Marino13 (talk) 13:13, 7 February 2016 (EST)

Just another reminder. I found you not filling out {{aboutfile}} with File:SM64 Mario Head.png and File:Mario64pointing.png. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 15:54, 28 March 2016 (EDT)

Compress PNGs

PNG Monster reduces file sizes of PNGs. Just giving you a useful tip. ;) --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 23:56, 14 February 2016 (EST)

Don't remove others users comments

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that you can't remove others users comments. You can read Super Mario Wiki's courtesy policy to better understand this. The only comments you are allowed to remove are flames and acts of vandalism.--^(TALK) 22:08, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

• Flames? What are those? Marino13 (talk) 22:23, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

Flaming is strong language including swearing, personal attacks, spamming etc. Fawful's Minion File:Fawful's Minion-Logan.jpeg 22:29, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

Okay, thanks for the notice.Marino13 (talk) 22:33, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

Missing Categories

Please stop forgetting to insert game image categories to new image uploads on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing. If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Make sure you add the game image category the image belongs to (such as Category:Donkey Kong Country Images or Category:Donkey Kong 64 Images). They are inserted using [[]]. If you are unsure of the category name, use the search bar to the left and type in Category: and then type in the game title. It's case-sensitive or else red link. Otherwise blue link. I mention this because L151 (talk) and I just got done editing several images missing such categories. You can see on Porplemontage (talk)'s user talk archive pages. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 18:55, 12 May 2016 (EDT)

Is it that important? Marino13 (talk) 19:20, 12 May 2016 (EDT)

Not sure but it does help identify accidental duplicated files and helps us find images to satisfy articles/sections needing an image without needing to upload. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 22:41, 12 May 2016 (EDT)

Now I understand. I do hate seeing duplicates of the same image on here too. More than happy to help. Marino13 (talk) 00:42, 13 May 2016 (EDT)

Sig

That's called a signature, the page I linked to has all the information you need to make one. All I do is just take the head icon HUD from Mario Kart 8 and shrink it to an appropriate size like, say, 10px (<nowiki>)
