An image may be replaced when a better quality image has been uploaded as a separate file. Usually, a file can just be reuploaded, but as aforementioned, the file types must match. You can't reupload an existing PNG with a JPEG for example. If you have obtained a better quality PNG of an existing JPEG file, please don't switch the PNG to JPEG just to suit a reupload, as this will lower the quality and any (official) transparency will be lost. Instead, you can upload the better quality PNG version as a new file. This is known as replacing. | An image may be replaced when a better quality image has been uploaded as a separate file.

To correctly replace an image, you should check what pages the old file is being used on by looking at the "What links here" section of the file page. Go through the articles listed and replace the old image with the newer version by changing the file name on the articles. If the old file links to a [[MarioWiki:Userspace|userspace]] page other than your own, then please disregard it. It is up to users to maintain their own page and update the file link. Please also disregard files which link to talk pages. If an article is [[MarioWiki:Protected pages|protected]], then please contact an [[MarioWiki:Administrators|administrator]] or post a comment in [[ | To correctly replace an image, you should check what pages the old file is being used on by looking at the "What links here" section of the file page.

It may also be a good idea to provide a link to the newer file, so the administrator who is deleting the file knows what it's being replaced by. | ||
