:Hi. Please put an actual edit summary when contributing, not "I changed something" or "I added something". We know you changed something...that's not very helpful. Edit summaries help whoever is interested see how the page has evolved when looking at its history page. Also, if you ever make an edit that isn't immediately understandable, your summary can provide the explanation so you don't get reverted. About [http://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=Spore_Creatures/Table_of_Contents&diff=prev&oldid=388240 this change]: our current guideline is to just put what the page is about, as "list" is redundant, and also it may become inaccurate throughout time as more people edit the page.

Please see our policy on [[StrategyWiki: | Please see our policy on [[StrategyWiki:Guide/Image naming|image naming and categorization]]. In the future, your image names should contain the name of the game or its abbreviation and a one or two word description. All images also need to have the [[:Category:Images|appropriate categories]] added, as well as the guide-specific image category (i.e. '''<nowiki>[[Category:</nowiki>Wario Land 4 images]]'''). --[[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 20:19, 4 May 2009 (UTC) | ||

Please stop uploading images until you read and understand [[StrategyWiki: | Please stop uploading images until you read and understand [[StrategyWiki:Guide/Image naming|this policy]]. Filenames must have the game name or an abbreviation in the title. This means put "LF2" at the beginning of the image names you upload. Secondly, "Guide-specific images" is not a category that belongs on individual images. That's the category containing the "Little Fighter 2 images" category. "Little Fighter 2 images" is the guide-specific image category that goes on those images. The other category should be "Sprites". I renamed and recategorized all the images you uploaded yesterday, so use those as an example. — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 15:15, 24 August 2009 (UTC) | ||
:Image naming and categorization is a simple policy, which you seem unable or unwilling to follow. So that we don't have to have this recurring discussion, you will begin to be blocked for short times for improperly uploading images. No one wants to see you kept from editing the wiki, but the alternative is to let you upload whatever you want, which takes other people's precious time to fix. So, unfortunately, we have no other recourse. You can avoid a block by correctly uploading images as has been outlined numerous times here, or simply avoid uploading at all. Thanks and good luck. — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 20:15, 1 November 2009 (UTC) | :Image naming and categorization is a simple policy, which you seem unable or unwilling to follow.

As you were warned about [[#Image uploads|earlier]], continuing to improperly upload images will result in temporary bans. This is the first and lightest, just two hours, to let you know that our policies will be enforced. Future blocks will increase in length, but whether you receive any is entirely up to you. You can read all the advice from the earlier thread, you can read the [[StrategyWiki: | As you were warned about [[#Image uploads|earlier]], continuing to improperly upload images will result in temporary bans.

You can read all the advice from the earlier thread, you can read the [[StrategyWiki:Guide/Image naming|image policy]], or you could just look at all the images you've uploaded to see the changes that others have had to make. However you do it, please follow our image policy by putting the name of the game or its abbreviation at the beginning of the file name and include the proper categories in the summary when uploading.

:Apparently I still have to reiterate that <nowiki>[[Category:Guide-specific images]]</nowiki> '''does not go on individual images'''. Forget you ever learned about that category, okay? In the very few instances where the category is used, ''I'll do it for you''. Just stick to the normal image category (e.g. Characters) and the guide image category (e.g. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story images). That part was good, and that's all you need.
