Hi, just to let you know, you don't need to put full stops after image captions which just say the name, like '''Game & Watch Toss Up''' or '''Chef''', because a LOT, and I mean A LOT of articles have this type of thing, and it will be a LOT of work to go through every article and put full stops after every name. However, if the image statement is a sentence, like the one below, you need to have a full stop after it. {{user:Mario jc/sig}}

Did you read what I said before? The image captions that are sentences are like, for example, "Mario riding on Yoshi." require full stops, but captions that just say the article's name, for example: "'''Temple of Form'''" don't need any. If you ''do'' put a full stop after a ''sentence'' caption, put it at the very end of it, meaning you put it '''after''' the three apostrophes: <nowiki>'''</nowiki><br>
I already told you to stop doing this, and yet you still continue to do it. You're not really helping to make the articles better if you're just adding full stops at the end of every image caption that don't require full stops. Do something else besides that, please. {{user:Mario jc/sig}}
Example:
*'''{{color|red|Wrong}}''' <nowiki>[[File:MarioYoshi.jpg|thumb|Mario riding on '''Yoshi.''']]</nowiki>
*'''{{color|green|Right}}''' <nowiki>[[File:MarioYoshi.jpg|thumb|Mario riding on '''Yoshi'''.]]</nowiki>
Do you see the difference? {{user:Mario jc/sig}}

Did you read what I said before? The image captions that are sentences are like, for example, "Mario riding on Yoshi." require full stops, but captions that just say the article's name, for example: "Temple of Form" don't need any. If you do put a full stop after a sentence caption, put it at the very end of it, meaning you put it after the three apostrophes: '''
Example:

  • Wrong [[File:MarioYoshi.jpg|thumb|Mario riding on '''Yoshi.''']]
  • Right [[File:MarioYoshi.jpg|thumb|Mario riding on '''Yoshi'''.]]
