::::::Nintendo Wiki won't get developed unless it actually has people to develop it. Same goes for anywhere, but if you want it to be built up into a good resource, we gotta start somewhere.

Hello! Should I replace the files for Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2, Super Mario Bros. 3, and Mario Bros.? In general, which files can I upload from the Mario Wiki, and which ones can I not? I noticed that some of the files were taken from the Mario Wiki even before I came here, so I wondered what the criteria was for it being acceptable on this wiki.

:I would avoid taking files from other wikis in general. They typically are serving as middlemen for file sourcing and not the actual origin of the files. I would suggest one of these four resources first: [http://www.thecoverproject.net The Cover Project], [https://www.mobygames.com MobyGames], [https://www.video-games-museum.com/en Video Games Museum], [https://www.amazon.com Amazon]. Just be sure to crop down and optimize the files from The Cover Project (use https://tinyjpg.com or https://ezgif.com/optimize ). Ideally, we don't use them as linked sources, but it's not necessarily ''wrong'' to have them.

::Thanks. Is there any way that I could obtain the NSO box arts that Nintendo uses? They are official and of a higher quality/more accurate scan (or at least some of them) than the ones we currently use.
