Uploads

Hello, MarioKartFan4863927. 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 Company images Film images Game images Internet images Merchandise images Publication images System images Television series images Company media files Film media files Game media files Internet media files Merchandise media files Publication media files System media files Television series media 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, 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, MarioKartFan4863927. 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 1) should always be included, even if it's just a couple words. 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.

Ok, But could we possibly use the course previews pictures that i've uploaded for the Mario Kart Wii page for the courses. MarioKartFan4863927 17:31, December 27, 2020 (GMT)

Yes, although it would be better to put them in the individual course's article. (Put them in the "Gallery" section) --DarkNight 12:36, December 27, 2020 (EST)

Ok, But can you do them whilst i continue doing the other course previews. MarioKartFan4863927 17:41, December 27, 2020 (GMT)

I suggest putting the abbreviated name of the game where the picture was from at the beginning, so it is clearer to other users what variant it is or what game it is from. --DarkNight 12:48, December 27, 2020 (EST)

== Summary ==
{{aboutfile
|1=Preview of [[x]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''
}}
[[Category:Mario Kart Wii Images]]
== Licensing ==
{{game-screenshot}}

You should copy this and paste it into the upload box, replacing "x" with the course name. Will make editing the file descriptions easier, rather than having to go back and do them. 13:50, December 27, 2020 (EST)
Also, following what DarkNight said, I suggest you putting shorter names for your files. Let me explain myself :

• BabyPeachTrickingonMushroomGorgeintheMKWiiStaffCredits.png is not a good file name as it is not clear and contain too much useless information
• MKW Mushroom Gorge Credits Screenshot is a better file name as we understand directly what it is about, and th egame abbreviation is at the beggining.

So try to change your file names now, the arleady uploaded files can be renamed only if you are autoconfirmed.

Your last few uploads were missing categories, please remember to add them for all uploads. Also, you should really list TCRF as a source using {{aboutfile}} (as explained above) if you're getting images from there rather than leaving them uncredited. Mario JC 23:09, January 7, 2021 (EST)

Also, remember to use your images as soon as you upload them, otherwise they'll go unused and other users would have to do it for you, and if there isn't a place for them, they'll be deleted. Mario JC 23:07, January 17, 2021 (EST)

Files also shouldn't be added to pages if they don't exist. They should be uploaded first. Mario JC 19:20, January 18, 2021 (EST)

Titles

Hi, when linking to the articles, we use the SNES, GBA type prefixes before the names, for example, GBA Bowser's Castle 1, not Bowser Castle 1 (GBA) and SNES Mario Circuit 2, not Mario Circuit 2. Also, please make sure the links will link to the correct page, as Battle Course 1 links to the disambiguation page instead, not GBA Battle Course 1. Also, please check if these are correct first, GBA Bowser's Castle 1's music is slightly different from the Mario Kart Wii version, and GBA Battle Course 1 uses the original instead.WildWario (talk) 08:18, November 2, 2021 (EDT)

Ok, I'll change the information on the page, though if you want, you can change it yourself. Thanks for finding an error. WildWario (talk) 11:11, November 2, 2021 (EDT)
