| Do not create articles with just one sentence of information. Rather than just adding what it is basically, you should at least add what it does, how it's significant to the plot etc. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 01:17, August 9, 2024 (EDT)

| |
| Don't be vague about the details like saying the item "has effects" on a character? What effects? (and for Excitement Battery, how is it relevant to the story if it's the source of the Tokyo 64's power?) You should be at least familiar with the game to write information about it; if you're not, or you haven't played the game, leave it for someone else to write the articles, but don't create pages just for the sake of filling in red links. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:27, August 9, 2024 (EDT)

| == Table images ==
| |
|
| |
| If you're adding images to tables, make sure you specify a width for big images ([[Special:Diff/3651649|like this]]). You can't see it in mobile view, but in desktop view, leaving the image without a width causes it to display in its original size and appear too big. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:54, May 6, 2022 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| Moses: Understood, thank you. {{User|Moses Sin}} 10:50, July 6, 2022 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| Please remember to add <nowiki><br></nowiki> [[Special:Diff/3753199|between the images and text]] for the ''Yoshi's Island'' tables so the text appears underneath it, otherwise the text appears next to it in desktop view. Again, this isn't visible in mobile view, so you wouldn't have seen it; in the future, I'd suggest looking at your edits in desktop mode to see that they're displayed properly when working with tables and image placement. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 04:29, September 11, 2022 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| :You're doing this again; please look at your edits on desktop mode so the images are properly scaled and aligned with the text. It's frustrating having to constantly remind you of things you were notified for before. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 05:32, September 19, 2022 (EDT)

| == Level music ==
| |
|
| |
| The "track" parameter is for titles of officially named songs, not general descriptions of songs. These can be described in the article, or add the actual media file itself in the "track" parameter. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:07, September 17, 2022 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| :Just adding the song title (like "Sticky Situation") when it's not that exact song, but a variation of it, is misleading. Please stop redoing these edits. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:47, September 18, 2022 (EDT)

| |
| == Image categories ==
| |
|
| |
| After removing {{tem|uncategorized}} when you upload, it should be replaced with a category link (for ''Dark Moon'' images, you add <code><nowiki>[[Category:Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon images]]</nowiki></code>) {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 05:00, December 10, 2022 (EST)

| == "Image+Name" ==
| |
|
| |
| It's more formal to use a forward slash than a plus sign here. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 00:37, April 11, 2023 (EDT)

| == Excessive linking ==
| |
|
| |
| Don't add excessive and unnecessary links to concepts like "enemy" and "character"; these types of things are obvious and don't really help the reader. Many of the links you're adding are also redirect links (including the ones I mentioned), which are not allowed, and disambiguation links. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:49, April 25, 2023 (EDT)

| ==Prezzy Edits==
| |
| I like the edits that you made on the [[Prezzy]] page, since I feel like having the rating being a little pixel sprite gallery would be better than having it as just plain text. It looks less cluttered that way, and it matches what it looks like in-game.

| == Warioware smooth moves pre-intro cutsenses ==
| |
|
| |
| Hello, Moses Sin. I have just reuploaded the files you've uploaded for the WWSM pre-intros. With the high-quality thp/emulator versions. Why? Because youtube screenshots come out as blurry, and thus you shouldn't rely on yt videos for cutscene screenshots. Youtube screenshots are best when used on youtube-exclusive videos, like the WarioWare Gold character trailers. (I haven't reuploaded one for Jimmy P yet) {{User:PnnyCrygr/sig}} 09:25, October 2, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| *OK. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 9:26, October 2, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| :YouTube screenshots of gameplay are acceptable if you don't have any other means of capturing the game, as long as the videos themselves aren't poor quality. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 01:01, October 3, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| *Fair enough. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 15:15, October 3, 2023 (EDT)

| |
| == Moving files ==
| |
|
| |
| [https://www.mariowiki.com/File:Bowling_clear_G%26Wario.png?action=history Read the reason why I moved the page back]. If you're renaming a file, its name needs to be changed on any pages that are using it (listed under "File usage"). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 01:33, October 10, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| Please do not move files without changing their names on the pages linking them. You moved a number of files that haven't been updated on articles. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:08, November 9, 2023 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| If you're moving a file because of a wrong name, the old name should be marked for deletion with {{tem|delete}}, not blanked.<br>Also, when you do upload over the wrong name, the summary information isn't actually added to the page; [[Special:Diff/4067120|you have to edit the page manually to add it]]. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:15, November 28, 2023 (EST)

|
| |
| == Wikipedia links ==

|
| |
| We have a template for this: {{tem|wp}}. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 05:45, October 19, 2023 (EDT)

| Hello Moses Sin. Great work on uploading the Club Sugar and Hawt House finale cutscenes from Twisted and Touched. However, you uploading them in jpg format, from YouTube videos rather than Desmume or Visual Boy leaves quality to be desired. If you want emulator-quality screenshots (in png), simply play the rom dumps in your Desmume/Visual Boy, then you can take a screenshot of your computer and crop out the excess into just the emulator's output display instead. Get it? It should be simple. Plus, if you're planning to save them in pngs, there's a dropdown option in the Save As window, that lets you change the file type. {{User:PnnyCrygr/sig}} 07:30, October 24, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| *Understood. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 18:10, October 24, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| == Old file names ==
| |
|
| |
| You're still just blanking old file names instead of marking them for deletion. If you're going to edit the page anyway, you may as well tag {{tem|delete}} to it rather than removing everything. Is there a reason why you're not adding it or can't add it? {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 09:21, December 5, 2023 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| :No, sorry. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 11:55, December 5, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| == Similar images ==
| |
|
| |
| Please don't upload excessive images that are too similar to each other; we don't need every single frame of a cutscene. That means if the only difference between multiple images is something as minor as character's head position (like Jimmy T looking at the camera then at his phone), we only need one.
| |
|
| |
| Also, don't connect captions together to write a narrative and add made-up quotes like "This is me, Mona!" They should be kept professional and simply describe what is in the image. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:29, December 29, 2023 (EST)
| |
|
| |
| ==Files final reminder==
| |
| Not only are you still just blanking redirects rather than tagging them for deletion, you're not fixing their file names on other pages too (the "WWG CricketCharacterTrailer(number).png" ones specifically). A number of your images are also too similar to other images and unnecessary. ''Please pay attention'' to what I've been telling you; this is a final warning and it's exhausting having to remind you of the same things every time.<br>
| |
| Another thing, changing something like "WWG CricketCharacterTrailer1.png" to a simple description like "The winner is Young Cricket!.png" is not necessarily a "better name". You got rid of the game name in the title, and a lot of your names are not professional and again just made-up quotes ("CATCH!", "Yes, I got it!"). They should be titled the same way you'd write a caption, but simpler/shorter (e.g. "WWG Young Cricket wins.png", "WWG Mantis throws dumpling.png", "WWG Cricket Cicada catch dumpling.png"), and they shouldn't have symbols and punctuation like parentheses, ampersands, and exclamation marks (read [[MarioWiki:Image use policy]]). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 00:41, December 31, 2023 (EST)

| == Headers ==
| |
|
| |
| Don't add images or templates to headers, they mess up section links on the history page and Recent Changes. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 23:04, July 17, 2024 (EDT)

| |
| == Microgame icons ==
| |
|
| |
| The staff went through this with [[Special:Contributions/Jsylvan|another user who made similar uploads]] of minigame thumbnails that are just compressed screenshots used by the game: We already have actual screenshots that do the job, so we don't need these thumbnails. Try to avoid treating the wiki as a place to dump every asset from the game and focus on only uploading images we ''need''. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 23:55, July 30, 2024 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| *Understood. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 00:05, July 31, 2024 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| == Blurry images ==
| |
|
| |
| Don't upload blurry, upscaled images over images taken at the console's native resolution, please. A bigger image does not make it better-quality. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:55, August 9, 2024 (EDT)

| *Sorry, but what can we do about the sports equipment in ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Nintendo DS)]]'' and the [[Excitement Battery]]? {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 12:40, August 9, 2024 (EDT)

| |
|
| |
| Review my message in [[#Similar images]]. ''[[Gallery:WarioWare: Smooth Moves#Character intros|This]]'' (''especially'' the Jimmy T ones) is excessive. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 03:07, August 20, 2024 (EDT)

| == Names in other languages citations ==
| |
|
| |
| Hey, just wanted to let you know that a proposal to require citations for names in other languages passed. It would mean a lot if you could cite new names as you add them. Thanks! [[User:Technetium|Technetium]] ([[User talk:Technetium|talk]]) 08:27, August 27, 2024 (EDT)

|
| |
| == File names and captions ==
| |
|
| |
| Keep file names and captions ''professional''. [[Special:ListFiles/Moses_Sin|These "in-game stage" file names]] and the captions you added to the ''Yoshi's Crafted World'' pre-boss fight questions are not suitable. Use more formal and neutral-tone titles and captions, and ''do not use punctuation in file names'' (that includes letters with accents like those used in Pinyin). [[#Files final reminder|This is information I've already notified you for previously]]. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:45, September 20, 2024 (EDT)

|
| |
| *Whoops. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 08:33, September 20, 2024 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| == Summaries ==
| |
|
| |
| Calm down with the summaries. I understand you're trying to make it a fun thing out of them, but that's not what summaries are for, and they're distracting. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 04:38, September 22, 2024 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| *All right. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 04:42, September 22, 2024 (EDT)
