Choosing an image to upload

Cropping sections of an image

-donkey kong -b/w yoshi -Ukiki: File:SMA3-Japanese Flyer.jpg -Toadie -Starshade Bros.

Sometimes official artwork of an article subject in a certain game appearance may only be known to exist within a group artwork or promotional image, rather than an official solo artwork. For example File:SMA3-Japanese Flyer.jpg contains unique artwork of many different characters arranged together as a scene. In such cases, users may have the incentive to crop the desired section of the full image to focus on a single subject, and then upload it as a separate character artwork. This is strongly discouraged. The reason being that it's not a good look when we have the full image being split up like a jigsaw puzzle and placed on pages as separate images.

An example of when cropping artwork is not acceptable. The individual character is unable to be separated from the image, due to overlapping elements.

Unless the artwork can be properly and professionally edited to look like a solo artwork, then it cannot be used as an image separate to the scene it came from. For example, the Beanie that appears in Yoshi's New Island was not given an official individual artwork. However, it is shown in the Big Beanie character artwork. Because the background to the image was already blank, and because the Beanie was edited without affecting the original image, then it is acceptable to be uploaded as an individual character artwork.

In contrast, cropping an image is not allowed when the subject is the main or part of the main focus of the image. An example of this is the artwork of King Boo from Luigi's Mansion. Even though a Bowser suit can be seen behind King Boo, cropping the image to only show King Boo is not acceptable, as the image is already focused on this character.

Single image

Result	Wiki coding used	Notes
	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px|left]]	Displays the image without a border, thumbnail or caption. When this is done, the image will be displayed on the left side of the page as the default. It can also be displayed in the center of the page, or on the right. (text wrap) Clicking on the image will lead to the file page.
	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px|left|Click here!]]	Custom text will appear when hovering the cursor over the image. Clicking on the image will lead to the file page.
	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px|left|Click here!|link=Super Mushroom]]	Links to a page title on the wiki. Using only link= (without specifying a page) will de-link the image, and clicking on it will do nothing. This is ideal for official Notice Templates which use an image as part of the template. For example, Template:Warning includes a delinked image. Having a clickable image which leads to a file page would be unnecessary here, as the template serves as a formal notice when issued to users.
	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px|border|left|Click here!]]	Places a faint grey border around the image.
	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px|thumb|left]]	This will create a thumbnail of the image, surrounded by a solid border. The sign signifies that the image may be displayed at a modified size, and it could be enlarged by clicking on this symbol. The side the page the image is placed on can be alternated between left, right or center. "Right" is the default when using a thumbnail.
Caption.	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px|thumb|left|Caption.]]	A caption can be placed below the image, within the frame. This is commonly used to describe the image. Using a thumbnail with a description is an ideal way to embed related images within an article.
Caption.	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|50px|thumb|left|Caption.]]	The image can be re-sized to a smaller height. The image cannot be made larger than its native size. If a desired height is not entered, then the image will be displayed at its full size within the thumbnail.
Caption.	[[File:Mushroom Example.png|frame|left|Caption.]]	A frame can be placed around the image. This is different from a thumbnail. The full size of the image will be shown, and it cannot be resized. This may be used on articles instead of a thumbnail, when the full size of the image is already an appropriate size to display on an article.
	http://www.mariowiki.com/images/0/08/Mushroom_Example.png	Using simply the URL of the image will still display it. However it can not be used within a thumbnail or frame, it cannot be resized and clicking on it will do nothing. For articles on the wiki, one of the aforementioned options should be used instead.
	[http://www.mariowiki.com/Super_Mushroom http://www.mariowiki.com/images/0/08/Mushroom_Example.png]	Placing a page URL in front of the image URL, and then surrounding with square brackets can link the image. This can be used to link to external websites other than the Super Mario Wiki.
Template:Plainlink	{{plainlink|1=[http://www.mariowiki.com/Super_Mushroom http://www.mariowiki.com/images/0/08/Mushroom_Example.png]}}	Using the {{plainlink}} template can remove the "" beside the image (which will show by default when linking images using a URL).

Multiple images

Result	Wiki coding used	Notes
File:1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png Caption.	{{multiframe |align=left |[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px]] [[File:1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png|75px]] |Caption. }}	Using the {{multiframe}} template, two or more images may be placed in the same frame. A single description may be used. Clicking the cursor on either image will lead to the respective file page. The |align parameter may be used to place the frame on the left, right or center of the page. If the parameter is not used, "right" will be the default. The width of the frame can also be specified, using the |size= parameter. Please see the template's page for instructions.
1-Up Mushroom Caption.	{{multiframe |align=left |[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px|Super Mushroom|link=Super Mushroom]] [[File:1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png|75px|1-Up Mushroom|link=1-Up Mushroom]] |Caption. }}	As per the instructions given in the "Single image" table, the individual images may be linked to individual articles. This is ideal when the subjects within a Multiframe may be linked to articles to provide more information on that subject.
File:1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png Caption.	{{multiframe |align=left |[[File:Mushroom Example.png|75px]]<br>[[File:1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png|75px]] |Caption. }}	The <br> tag may be used after the first image to move the second image to the next line. This will allow the images to be arranged vertically, rather than the horizontal default.
A Super Mushroom. File:1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png A 1-Up Mushroom.	{{multiple image |align=left |image1=Mushroom Example.png |width1=75 |caption1=A [[Super Mushroom]]. |image2=1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png |width2=75 |caption2=A [[1-Up Mushroom]]. }}	The {{multiple image}} template may be used to give each image its own frame and description. When filling the "image" parameter, placing File: before the title is not necessary. Unlike the {{multiframe}} template, the width of the entire frame is determined by the specified widths of the individual images used. The template is aligned to the right side of the page as the default. Up to five images may be used within the template.
A Super Mushroom. Two types of Mushrooms. A 1-Up Mushroom. Two types of Mushrooms.	{{multiple image |align=left |footer=Two types of Mushrooms. |image1=Mushroom Example.png |width1=75 |caption1=A [[Super Mushroom]]. |image2=1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png |width2=75 |caption2=A [[1-Up Mushroom]]. }}	A single footer can be used to collectively describe the multiple images.
A Super Mushroom. File:1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png A 1-Up Mushroom.	{{multiple image |align=left |direction=vertical |image1=Mushroom Example.png |width1=75 |caption1=A [[Super Mushroom]]. |image2=1-Up Mushroom - New Super Mario Bros.png |width2=75 |caption2=A [[1-Up Mushroom]]. }}	The images may also be aligned vertically, by changing the |direction parameter. If the parameter is not used, then the images will be arranged horizontally by default.
