| Because you tried to replace an infobox image with a high-res one. This is a meaningless pursuit because the image will never be displayed at the higher res and will only serve to take up space.

| == Why do you keep replacing images? ==
| |
|
| |
| There seems to be little point of it. You're just making the admin team do more legwork in deleting the old ones. <span style="font-family:Algerian;font-size:10pt;background:#000;border:outset #083 2px;padding:1px 3px">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|12px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0">King</span>]]'''</span> 17:29, 5 August 2018 (EDT)

| :Because that's what they do on most wikis, like Zelda Wiki or Mario Wiki? [[User:Conker the Squirrel|Conker the Squirrel]] ([[User talk:Conker the Squirrel#top|talk]]) 17:30, 5 August 2018 (EDT)

| :But you're not giving any reason for replacing them. IF it's just because you've got a higher quality, we don't really care about that unless the quality of the original is unacceptable. <span style="font-family:Algerian;font-size:10pt;background:#000;border:outset #083 2px;padding:1px 3px">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|12px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0">King</span>]]'''</span> 18:47, 5 August 2018 (EDT)

| Hey, please don't upload images that are smaller/lower-quality just so they match native resolution for the NES or SNES or whatever. For example, [[:File:BowserBombSMB3.PNG|this one]]. If you want to upload cleaner/pixel-perfect images with the correct aspect ratio and such, I'm all for that. But uploading a small image just to match native res will result in it getting messily upscaled for display on most article pages. The best way to handle this is to do a simple 2x or 3x upscale from native res yourself and upload that. That way, the full-size image is pixel-perfect, and it will get ''downscaled'' for display in articles which looks much better. [[:File:WreckingCrewLogo.png|Here's]] an example. [[User:SuperFalconBros|SuperFalconBros]] ([[User talk:SuperFalconBros|talk]]) 17:14, 30 September 2018 (EDT)
| |
| :I mean, i thought you could fix the upscaling for the article--when i upload the pixel perfect variant, it reduces article load time (which the wiki focuses on). But yeah, you have a good point.

| I was wondering why you're converting the image file type on numerous images? Does it really matter what file type the image is? (I personally cannot see any differences between the images of the png and jpg files) (If its because other Wikis do it, the SmashWiki has its ''own'' rules) [[User:Wolff| Wolff]] ([[User talk:Wolff|talk]]) 17:19, April 28, 2019 (EDT)
| |
| :Because PNG only inflates the file size--there's no quality difference aside from inflated file size. Why do people have to have a go at me over images so much? C'mon now... [[User:Conker the Squirrel|Conker the Squirrel]] ([[User talk:Conker the Squirrel#top|talk]]) 20:42, April 28, 2019 (EDT)

| ::Probably because it is not seen as a necessity or concern that this Wiki has. None of the [[SmashWiki:Policy|rules]] specify a required file type, and as [[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;background:#ed0;padding:1px">Serpent</span>]][[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;background:#083;padding:1px">King</span>]]</span> had mentioned, a lot of work the admins have to do to delete the files that have been replaced. About a week ago, there were only about 7 images/pages that were of Speedy Deletion, now there is almost 200. That is about 200 items that the admins have to delete, ''manually''. If you are admin about replacing the png files into jpg files, I'd suggest asking on [[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;background:#ed0;padding:1px">Serpent</span>]][[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;background:#083;padding:1px">King</span>]]</span>'s talk page as [[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;background:#ed0;padding:1px">Serpent</span>]][[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;background:#083;padding:1px">King</span>]]</span> was the one who originally told you it was unnecessary. Most concerns, that I've seen here, care about the quality and relevance that is shown in the image itself. The admins have stated before that although the SmashWiki is connected to the ''Mario'' and ''Zelda'' Wikis, the SmashWiki has its own [[SmashWiki:Policy|Policies]] seprate from the other Wikis that SmashWiki is suppose to follow. However, if you wish to make the file conversion a priority on the Wiki, I suggest creating a [[Forum:Proposals|proposal]] on the matter. I hope this helps with your efforts!

| ::::I apologize that your image conversions don't appear currently necessary for the Wiki. What I had mentioned before are still options that are available if you still wish to go though the efforts of converting all the files.

| == Image tagging ==
| |
|
| |
| When tagging images for deletion, make sure they're not being used on a userspace article first. If they're being used in someone's userspace, don't tag it, instead replace the categories on the image with [[:Category:User images]]. [[User:Disaster Flare|<span style="color:Green; text-shadow: 0px 0px 3px green">'''Disaster'''</span> <span style="color:Blue;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px blue">'''Flare'''</span>]] [[File:Disaster Flare signature image.png|20px]] ''[[User talk:Disaster Flare|<span style="color:SkyBlue;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px skyblue">(talk)</span>]]'' 12:09, 29 September 2018 (EDT)

| Just because Zelda Wiki moved over to Gamepedia doesn't mean they aren't NIWA. Also, I would argue calling them "losers" is a [[SW:NPA|personal attack]] against the whole wiki.

| Hey just wanted to ask if you could make one large edit on your css rather than several small edits. It's flooding the recent changes. [[User:Pokebub|Pokebub]] ([[User talk:Pokebub|talk]]) 01:06, July 7, 2020 (EDT)
