== Uploading == | |||
If you want to add an image you found on a website, you need to upload it first on [[Special:Upload]]. The instructions at the top explain how to upload, fill out the summary, and add it to an article ([[Help:Image]] and [[Help:Gallery]] are also useful). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 09:53, July 2, 2024 (EDT) | |||
I can't add the image of the Japanese voice actor, Fumihiro Okabayashi [[User:Olofsson|Olofsson]] ([[User talk:Olofsson|talk]]) 14:27, July 2, 2024 (EDT) | |||
:(Edit conflict) {{aboutfile-reminder}} | |||
Hi there! When uploading images, make sure to fill out the "aboutfile" template properly. Yup lease remove any sections of the template you don't need (such as "other versions"). When linking to another website, make sure to add one bracket to each side of the URL (brackets look like this: <code><nowiki>[]</nowiki></code>. | |||
{{license-reminder}} | |||
Also make sure to select the proper license for the image. The image you uploaded was a photo of a person, so "photo" is the correct option here. | |||
One more thing - be sure to give files proper names. This is to ensure they won't be known as a string of numbers and letters. If you make a typo when naming a file, you can move it to the correct name to fix it. A wiki staff member such as myself can then delete the typo redirect. Thank you and keep contributing! | |||
I was typing this when you replied to the above message, and I can help with that! To put a file on an article, put the name of the file in brackets and type in the size of the image, like this! <code><nowiki>[[File:Fumihiro Okabayashi.jpg|150px]]</nowiki></code> {{User:Sparks/sig}} 14:32, July 2, 2024 (EDT) | |||
Thank you for the help. [[User:Olofsson|Olofsson]] ([[User talk:Olofsson|talk]]) 16:22, July 2, 2024 (EDT) | |||
Please remember to follow these reminders. Any "aboutfile" fields you're not using need to be removed, and a license should be added in the drop-down menu underneath the summary box (in this case, "Photo"). | |||
Also, thumbnail frames are not used in infoboxes. When adding an image, it just needs the size; about 200 pixels would be ideal (replace "thumb" with "200px"). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:17, September 1, 2024 (EDT) | |||
You added a license correctly but again, remember to remove any fields from the summary you're not using (like [[Special:Diff/4351187|this]]). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 01:19, September 3, 2024 (EDT) | |||

{{warning|2=referencing unreliable sources}} | |||
[[Special:Diff/4437519|Numerous]] [[Special:Diff/4437517|times]] [[Special:Diff/4488667|you've]] [[Special:Diff/4489397|cited]] poor sources for voice actor-related information like simple one-off posts from unofficial profiles or random users with no reputational information (and that Twitter post you last cited for Sullivan was ''just'' deleted, which makes me suspicious that you attempted to fabricate a source, which is even worse). Please use your best judgement in assessing that the sources you're adding are reliable and accurate next time; you shouldn't just take a webpage off the Internet just because it mentions a piece of information that needs citing on the wiki without checking its reputation and whether it's trustworthy or not. The "article" you cited a couple months back for [[Subaru Kimura]] doing the Mario Rap is another example: the website didn't specialise in voice acting and had a number of suspicious (and inappropriate) ads, which should have been a dead giveaway that it's not reliable. If you can't determine if a source is reliable or not, then it's best you don't cite it or add the information to begin with. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:52, January 6, 2025 (EST) | |||
