Hi there, | |||
Sorry for my various coding and formatting mistakes, I’m very much a noob here. I only reuploaded the map image to try and categorise it correctly, not to engage in an editing war. Also, I realise that out-of-context it appears like too technical an image to add, but I’m currently working on an article in which it would be extremely relevant. | |||

Hello, JJRC. 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:
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, images related to the game Super Mario World would use: [[Category:Super Mario World images]]or one it its subcategories. Media files would use: [[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, JJRC. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must apply the proper license. The following are the most common:
When uploading, select the license from the drop-down menu below the summary text box. Don't tag a file with multiple copyright templates; choose the one that best fits the file. Please consider the above information before uploading more files. If you continue uploading files without applying the correct license, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing. |

Hello, JJRC. 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 |
A few other things:
- Please don't make an edit then revert it, as this floods the history page and recent changes. Next time, use the "Show preview" button to see what your edit looks like before you publish it.
- Give your uploads a descriptive file name. Don't simply use the default file name.
- Avoid uploading duplicate files.
Help:Image explains how you add an image. You only need the file name, not the entire URL:
[[File:M5mrf.webp|thumb|Caption here]]
As for the image itself... you should probably start a discussion first on whether this "checkpoint system" should be covered or not, considering past discussions of similarly technical concepts and few (like this) being taken down. Many users won't know what these checkpoints are just based on the image and caption, and to explain it seems like it would take a separate page. Additionally, this diagram is crudely made; I'd suggest a cleaner version that doesn't look like a quick MS Paint image.
If you're having trouble with edits, don't be afraid to ask around. Mario JC 07:41, February 16, 2021 (EST)

This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (not categorising and licensing files) on the Super Mario Wiki. Please adhere to the rules or you will be blocked from editing this site. If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it. |
Your recent upload have not followed these, including not giving your file names more appropriate names. Please read the above reminders again.
Also, don't remove the "{{aboutfile" and the closing curly brackets "}}" at the end, otherwise you're leaving broken coding. Mario JC 06:45, April 24, 2021 (EDT)
Please read through the blue box reminder. You add a category link based on what game it's from (e.g. [[Category:Mario Kart Wii Images]]), not like "{{Game maps}}" (which generates a broken link as it doesn't exist) or navigation templates like {{Glitches}}. Mario JC 07:53, April 24, 2021 (EDT)
Please stop reuploading the same map image. I've already explained why it's currently not acceptable above the warning. You're also still not categorising properly; it's [[Category:Mario Kart Wii Images]] with square brackets (not curly) and the "Category:" prefix, not {{Mario Kart Wii Images}}.
