Images

When uploading images, remember to tag your images with [[Category:*game name* Images]] such as your Bowser portrait from Mario Kart Wii being tagged with [[Category:Mario Kart Wii Images]] Ray Trace^(T|C) 19:39, 18 December 2015 (EST)

To add, if you remove or change [[File:Name of File.png|thumb|??px|right]] in articles, like you did in Porcupine, be sure to tag the image you unlinked with {{tobedeleted}} or {{delete}} (like I did here), or else it adds to the pile of unused images, but only do that if the file is not linked elsewhere (see File usage). Ideally, the image should be repurposed. Also don't be afraid to use Upload a new version of this file in the File history section of each file. Just be sure to check File usage section to make sure the picture matches what you are uploading a new version of. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 21:09, 9 January 2016 (EST)

Uploads

Nice work on the Hotel Mario uploads! I wanted to get the images you replaced for some time now but I don't have the patience to reach that far in the game. The game is terribly designed so I pushed it off. :P I noticed you tend to do what I do to upload higher quality stuff and that is to match as close as possible to the previous image. Just one piece of advice for future uploading; use PNG Monster. It helps optimize PNGs to max compression to have as little impact on server resources as possible. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) ^{(Stats - Contribs)} 14:59, 25 May 2016 (EDT)
