Images

Hi! When you upload images, you don't have to use every section of the "aboutfile" template. You can just simply remove any sections you don't need.

Hello, DavidGamesYT. 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 Company images Film images Game images Merchandise images Publication images System images Television series images Website images Company media files Film media files Game media files Merchandise media files Publication media files System media files Television series media files Website media 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.

Below the "aboutfile" template, make sure you add the correct categories for the image. The images you're uploading have to deal with Super Mario Party Jamboree, so add in [[Category:Super Mario Party Jamboree images]] below the template. Because these are images, they also shouldn't be categorized as characters and such. Sparks (talk) 16:52, June 21, 2024 (EDT)

Please do not AI-upscale images (or upscale images manually yourself, making them blurry) or poorly crop the images around the artwork; the quality just looks worse this way. Just crop the icon as is from the video, or (especially for the ones that are too small in the video) wait for the game to release to get the actual sprites.

Also, avoid adding file links to pages until they've actually been uploaded. Mario JC 23:14, June 21, 2024 (EDT)

My bad guys. I was just trying to help out the wiki, and I didn’t realize my contributions would be frowned upon. I do kinda wish I got credit for my contributions that were kinda replaced my other people, but I’m not too upset. If you need anything, let me know. Thanks! User:DavidGamesYT/sig

Please review these messages if you intend to upload more images; your last upload of Pauline's icon was missing a category (and the image itself didn't need to be upscaled), and unused fields from the "aboutfile" template were not removed. Mario JC 00:32, August 31, 2024 (EDT)

Reminder

Please stop uploading images with bad transparency and not properly filling in file summaries on the Super Mario Wiki. This isn't a warning, and it's possible that you made a mistake by accident or without realizing it; this is simply a reminder for your information. If the action continues, then a warning will be issued. Thanks for reading and keep contributing. If you feel this reminder was undeserved, you may appeal it.

It's possible then that you screenshot the video using your device's built-in screenshot function (which usually saves the image in a resolution larger than the video actually is), the video itself upscaled them, or whatever you used to crop the images inadvertently saved them as large images; regardless, the images were still significantly larger than what they should be for icons, and I don't know what you used to crop them but there were some smudges left over around the characters near the corners. I'd simply wait for the in-game icon assets to release rather than trying to make a "sprite" out of a screenshot, even if it's a placeholder. For saving screenshots the future, you should screencap the video directly (right-click the video in desktop mode and select "Copy video frame", or alternatively use a screenshot browser extension or download the video and use the screenshot tool on a video player). However, the reminder still stands for the other reasons listed as a result of the Luigi and Daisy artwork uploads.

Please also make sure to sign your comments with four tildes at the end: ~~~~ Mario JC 04:50, September 14, 2024 (EDT)

Oh alright. I apologize for that. As long as I'm not gonna get banned or anything lol. In the future, I'll just directly upload the screenshots without removing the background. User:DavidGamesYT/sig 05:25, September 14, 2024 (EDT)

"upscaling"

You aren't being accused of upscaling images; however, the gameplay footage you are getting these from is upscaling them from their raw parameters, so there is upscaling happening somewhere along the line there. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 18:18, September 13, 2024 (EDT)
