File categories[edit]

Hello, Ultimatemario12. 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.

Please keep in mind that files need to be categorised according to what game they came from, as explained above (so for a music file from Touched!, you'd type [[Category:WarioWare: Touched! media files]] in the description). Music files should also receive the {{sound-clip}} license. I suggest using Special:Upload to upload like you did with the stylus image as it's easier to just select the license from the drop-down menu (though just FYI, we already have that image: File:Stylus.jpg, so it's been deleted).

Regarding the microgame edits, you don't need to say "if the objective is done, the player wins" when it's already clear that it's the objective, and that "the player loses when time runs out" as it already applies to every microgame (unless otherwise stated, like Fan Fair). If you see an edit you made was removed or changed, it's a good idea to check the article's history page first (the "history" tab at the top of the article) before adding it back in, since a reason may have been left for the edit.

Also, "stylis" is spelled "stylus" with a "u". K.K. Slider costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 06:32, November 26, 2021 (EST)

License[edit]

Hello, Ultimatemario12. Good job on your recent uploads, but when uploading files, keep in mind that you must apply the proper license. A full list of licenses can be found in the file copyright tags category, but the following are the most common:

  • {{photo}} - Used for photographs of real-life subjects.
  • {{art}} - Used for artwork of something that is not a character.
  • {{comic-scene}} - Used for scans of a comic.
  • {{comic-cover}} - Used for covers of comic books.
  • {{tv-screenshot}} - Used for screenshots of television shows.
  • {{film-screenshot}} - Used for screenshots of movies.
  • {{video-screenshot}} - Used for other screenshots, such as those from YouTube.

When uploading, select the license from the drop-down box below the summary text box, or add the license manually after uploading or if you're using the upload function from the text editor. For example, artwork of Mario would use {{character-artwork}}.

Please consider the above information before uploading more files. Don't include multiple copyright templates; choose the one that you feel best fits the file. If you continue uploading files without applying the correct license, then a warning will be issued. Thank you for reading, and keep contributing.

Please read both reminders or a warning will be issued if future uploads continue to lack a category and license.

Also, try to avoid publishing edits that you're not sure will work properly, as this floods the recent changes and history pages with unnecessary edits. In these cases, click on "Show preview" to see what your edit looks like before saving it so you can go back and fix or cancel your edit. Help:Image and Help:Gallery explain how to add images. K.K.

Warning.svg This is a warning to stop your inappropriate behavior (not licensing and properly categorising 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.

Not only were the licences absent, but the category links should have "images" or "media files" in lowercase; that's why they appeared as red links. K.K. Slider costume pose in Super Mario Maker Mario JC 03:33, January 15, 2022 (EST)

My apologies[edit]

I am terribly sorry, Mario jc for my blunders. I promise not to make a stupid mistake like that again. Heck, I'll take a break from if you want me to. - User:Ultimatemario12 10:13 AM

Minor edits[edit]

Hi, some of the edits you have been making are not minor edits, for example, adding lots of microgame details. Here's a section about minor edits. Wario (Cowboy) from Mario Kart TourWildWario (talk) 00:45, February 13, 2022 (EST)
