Please keep this in mind, as you're still using "you" to refer to the player. This also applies to phrases like ''"Go to this room."'' which should be written as ''"'''The player should''' go to this room."'' {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 00:25, March 25, 2019 (EDT)

Italics

Hello. I understand you used List of Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions music as a template for your new page, but as you might have noticed from the page, keep in mind that whenever you name a game title yourself, it should be italicised, with two apostrophes before and after the title (''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', which becomes Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey). MarioWiki:Manual of Style provides a step-by-step guide on how to create an article from scratch. Other than that, thanks for your contribution with the new page!

Images

Hello, Mid188. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must correctly categorize the file. It's simple to learn how to do so. Just search for the correct category by starting with the following groups:

Images Audio/video files

When uploading, copy the full title of the category and insert it in square brackets into the summary text box below the {{aboutfile}} template, replacing the {{uncategorized}} template entirely. If you're using the upload function from the text editor, simply add the category link to the description. For example, files related to the game Super Mario World would use:

[[Category:Super Mario World images]]
or
[[Category:Super Mario World media files]]

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Keep in mind that some files can belong to multiple categories. Do not put images into the media files category, or vice versa. If you continue uploading files without categorizing them correctly, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Hello, regarding your recent upload you forgot to properly categorize your image. How to do that is listed above this comment. Thanks! Doomhiker (talk)Artwork of a Topmini from Super Mario Galaxy 11:25, 10 February 2019 (EST)

Aboutfile

Hello, Mid188. 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. 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.

"You"

Hello, just wanted to let you know that we do not use the term "you" to refer to the player. The character's name or the phrase "the player" works just fine. TheDarkStar (talk) 20:16, March 22, 2019 (EDT)

Please keep this in mind, as you're still using "you" to refer to the player. This also applies to phrases like "Go to this room." which should be written as "The player should go to this room." Rosalina costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 00:25, March 25, 2019 (EDT)

Screenshot resolution

Hello. Thank you for creating and adding images to the List of beanholes in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time page. Can you try to get your images in native DS resolution (256x384)? If you're playing on an emulator, you should be able to do this by taking a screenshot. Scrooge200 (talk) 21:29, March 22, 2019 (EDT)

"Edited"

The parameter "edited" on an aboutfile template is for however you edited the image before you uploaded it, not for edits you made to the aboutfile, category, or licensing post-upload. Thanks! TheDarkStar (talk) 11:37, March 23, 2019 (EDT)
