Uploads

Hello, PaperMarioArtist. 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. Regarding your uploads:

  • The file should be filled in with the appropriate information, including a license and category. Please read {{imagecategory-reminder}} and the above reminder for how to do so. I notice you're using the text editor uploader, but I suggest you use Special:Upload as it's easier to do this.
  • Please give them more descriptive names, rather than using a default file name.
  • Avoid uploading poorly cropped screenshots and passing them off as artwork. If you're just trying to just show Prof. Toad's expressions, a normal crop with the background intact is perfectly acceptable. Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 03:50, July 27, 2020 (EDT)
Please can you give the images you upload a proper file name rather than just a string of numbers. Mario jumping Nightwicked Bowser Bowser emblem from Mario Kart 8

Please stop uploading files with just a description. They need a license and category. For future uploads, add the following to the summary box when you upload:

==Summary==
Description here

==Licensing==
{{game-sprite}}

[[Category:Paper Mario: The Origami King Images]]

The license depends on what type of image it is (explained above). Again, I strongly suggest uploading with Special:Upload instead of the text editor's uploader. If you continue uploading without categories or a license, a warning will be issued. Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 00:27, August 4, 2020 (EDT)

I also highly suggest using the {{aboutfile}} template as well. Sprite of a Goomba from Super Mario Bros.DarkNightSprite of a Piranha Plant from Super Mario World 00:38, August 4, 2020 (EDT)

If you feel this warning was undeserved, you may appeal it.

Please follow the above reminders.

For images for your own use, it should be marked with {{personal-image|PaperMarioArtist}} Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 02:55, August 16, 2020 (EDT)

Also, please don't upscale small images to make them larger, as all it does it make it blurrier and increase the file size. Wolf Link costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 03:02, August 16, 2020 (EDT)
