For example if you uploaded '''Bubble Bobble Floor 94.jpg''' you would paste '''<nowiki>[[Image:Bubble Bobble Floor 94.jpg|thumb|Insert description here]]</nowiki>''' Incidentally that kind of image would go in [[:Category:Screenshots]].

::Thank you for not reading the guide I linked. You should name your images as: "GameName Description.extension". The description in the file name should be as minimal as possible. If the image is part of a series, for example a map, an icon, an item, etc. you can classify all similar images with a word that groups them together (for example, "ROSE Online Icon <icon name>.jpg".). The smallest name you should go with is just "ROSE Online <image>.jpg" (as I've added to the first parameter of the {{t|rename}} tag on all of your images that need renaming). Again, please read over [[StrategyWiki: | ::Thank you for not reading the guide I linked. You should name your images as: "GameName Description.extension".

When uploading images, please make sure to categorise them using the correct [[:Category:Images|image categories]] and the guide-specific category, i.e. '''<nowiki>[[</nowiki>Category:MapleStory skill images]]'''.

:This is the sixth time you've been asked to properly categorize your images. Any further violations of policy will result in a temporary ban.

External links are for information that is either out of scope of StrategyWiki, or just too much for us to cover. Sleepywood has a huge MapleStory community, Hidden-Street has tons of info, so we link to them. If you have a lot of info that isn't covered in one of the other links, then it's probably OK. Of course, it's better if we can cover all the information here :). -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 19:04, 12 August 2009 (UTC) | External links are for information that is either out of scope of StrategyWiki, or just too much for us to cover.

:Like Prod said, we would rather contain all information about the game on ''this'' site. If you're working on something on another wiki, there's absolutely no reason why we can't contain that information here. If your information was contained on an uneditable site, that would be one thing. But we're StrategyWiki. Why would we want to send our viewers to a competing wiki site?

::There are no problems with linking to websites from your own. We want more websites to do this, because it improves our rank in search results and may give us additional traffic. Also, just reply to messages in one thread (i.e. this one, or the one on Prod's page; all of the admins watch each others' talk pages). --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 02:13, 13 August 2009 (UTC) | |||
:::Additionally, I'm starting to add maps (town and surrounding areas) to the town pages, mostly to note NPC locations. Using <nowiki><gallery></nowiki> we should be able to come up with simple ways for people to look at them. --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 02:24, 13 August 2009 (UTC) | |||
