==Overview==
===Category placement on articles===
The following points may be used as a summary as to which categories an article should use. Please refer to the subsequent sections of the policy for further reading.
 
*All game articles should receive [[:Category:Games]].
*When placing a game category on its game article, use an [[MarioWiki:Categories#Asterisks|asterisk]].
*When game categories are split into specific categories (such as "[[:Category:Super Paper Mario Characters|Super Paper Mario Characters]]"), relevant articles should then receive this specific category instead of [[:Category:Super Paper Mario|the game category]].
**If an article describing an in-game subject does not fit into a more specific category, then it just receives the overall game category.
**If a specific category can be split further (for example: "Super Paper Mario Characters" extends to "[[:category:Super Paper Mario Bosses|Super Paper Mario Bosses]]"), only use the most specific category.
*Articles should only use the following categories when a more specific one cannot be applied:
**[[:Category:Allies|Allies]]
**[[:Category:Bosses|Bosses]]
**[[:Category:Characters|Characters]]
**[[:Category:Enemies|Enemies]]
**[[:Category:Levels|Levels]]
**[[:Category:Minigames|Minigames]]
**[[:Category:Missions|Missions]]
**[[:Category:Species|Species]]
**[[:Category:Vehicles|Vehicles]]

==Choosing an image to upload==
===Cropping sections of an image===

-[[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.
[[File:Black Yoshi YIDS.png|thumb|120px|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 (Yoshi's New Island)|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 [[:File:KingBoowser.jpg|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.
