I don't particularly mind having the borders cropped so long as it's written in policy somewhere. With the SSB64 images, the border is part of {{iw|wikipedia|overscan}} and shouldn't be visible on a CRT display anyway, so it wouldn't be a huge loss.
 
By the way, should borderless images be enforced, I wanted to ask what should be done with these sets of images in particular, as they're what come to mind at the moment:
*I'm assuming that all the images in [[:Category:Subspace Emissary cutscenes]] would be cropped. Still, with all the [[:File:Wolf_Subspace.png|edit warring]] about this exact issue, I just wanted to be sure.
*Would all the images in [[:Category:Congratulations screens (SSBM)]] be cropped? They were originally uploaded as low quality JPEG screenshots, and were replaced by manually converting the original, quasi-JPEG files found in the ''Melee'' disk. However, they all have black borders as part of the image data. As to not upload 75+ JPEG-artifacted PNGs to replace them, they were uploaded as is. Consequently, editing them is not feasible without worsening the quality further. Should they be edited? And if so, how should they be reuploaded?
*What should be done about the images in [[:Category:Congratulations screens (SSB4-3DS)]]? I'm assuming the images contain the golden borders themselves like the ''Melee'' screens. Regardless, unlike the other two categories, these all have an image border rather than a plain black one. Would they be treated any differently from images with plain borders? [[File:NokiiSig.png|link=User_talk:Nokii]] '''[[User:Nokii|<span style="color:#89F">Nokii</span>]] ·''' 02:14, March 18, 2023 (EDT)
:*Ah Brandondorf, hard to tell in that case if the people weren't just reverting him because it was Brandondorf (who was infamous at the time for fucking with screenshots on the wiki by editing them far more than just removing borders, such as messing with their saturation or blowing up their size as a substitute for "higher resolution"), while I'm also sensing PSIWolf was being overprotective of "his" image (while his friends then joined in to "defend" it from Brandondorf). The people reverting Brandondorf are claiming the borders a part of the scene, but taking a look on youtube, I'm seeing videos of the cutscenes without any borders, so I don't know if it was just those users' emulator settings rather than the picture of Brawl's video files actually inherently having the borders. In any case though, I would prefer new, higher resolution screenshots taken that don't have the borders to begin with if possible (the linked Wolf cutscene example isn't even 480p), rather than just cropping the old screenshots.
 
:*Converting a JPG to a PNG shouldn't worsen the quality as long as the right settings are used, like I just took one of those images and [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/623510042808680473/1086544473758105701/BowserAdventureMode.png converted it to a PNG], while there was then absolutely no discernible degradation in quality post-conversion compared to the original JPG. For one more thing, I took a look at the source for one of the original screenshots that didn't have the black borders, and it was from [https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n01/n64/software/nus_p_nalj/smash/flash/0222/omake.html the official site itself], that seems to be an admittance that the borders weren't any sort of "developer's intent" or anything like that. So in this case, I would again say to preferably not have the borders in these images.
 
:*I would say this is a definite different case, as such borders were deliberately put there by the devs as part of the presentation rather than just being blank space to fill an aspect ratio that may or may not be visible depending on how the game is actually viewed, and when [https://youtu.be/xvPg9PzDHrg?t=721 looking at it ingame], you can clearly see how the gold border is a part of the image by how it moves up with the screenshot as the credits go on. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 03:25, March 18, 2023 (EDT)
::Pretty much in the same boat as Nokii. Do want to add some things regarding the other things.
::*Viewing the movies in Dolphin shows the borders. Taking screens via Dolphin will give 832x476px pictures and the image in the borders is roughly 770x414px (roughly because the edge isn't perfectly sharp because of the next sentence). Viewing and screening the files in VLC shows no borders and gives 576x416px (18:13, almost 4:3) which are then stretched to widescreen in-game. The name cards are also added in after the fact. The video files are THP files (the "quasi-JPGs" Nokii mentioned) and are essentially comprised of a series of JPG files, meaning they will always have some artifacting. I can get behind getting new images for these, but the details need to be worked out.
::*The black borders for the Melee files also have a tiny amount bleeding into them from the main portion. I personally see these as sprite rips and thus shouldn't be altered. JPGs ''can'' be cropped losslessly without causing extra artifacting, but you need special software and it can only be done in increments of 8 pixels due to how JPGs encode data (borders here are 16 pixels if you ignore the bleed over, so that works out). In the past I've used {{iw|wikipedia|libjpeg}} (command line) and {{iw|wikipedia|IrfanView}} (requires plugin for JPG cropping).
::*3DS congrats screens are [https://www.spriters-resource.com/3ds/supersmashbrosfornintendo3ds/sheet/62692/ sprite rips]. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 07:29, March 18, 2023 (EDT)
 
== Can you please change my username to MarioBobFan? ==
Because I want it changed. [[User:MarioBob|MarioBob]] ([[User talk:MarioBob|talk]]) 18:38, March 25, 2023 (EDT)
 
== Am I doing something actively wrong or are you just closely watching the recent changes? ==
 
I'm noticing that often when I edit, you either add on to my edit or revert it within minutes, even if the "who's online" section didn't list you, and when you do revert something you usually use strong language. I want to check to see if I was problematic and the strong language is because of that (given how there is an option to watch a specific user), or if you were just closely watching the recent changes and the semi-common usage of the word "shit" is just something you usually do. [[User:Unnamed anon|Unnamed anon]] ([[User talk:Unnamed anon|talk]]) 19:46, March 28, 2023 (EDT)
:I've been simply looking at recent changes a lot lately, I'm not watching nor targeting any specific users, and naturally someone who edits a lot will have their edits frequently looked over, and then the page being edited farther and their own edits being reverted for whatever reason. My "foul mouth" is nothing targeted towards you, and a cursory look at other posts of mine that have nothing to do you will show that. "Who's online" is also not reliable for showing who is online browsing at that exact moment, so you shouldn't put more stock into it other than "the user loaded a tab on SmashWiki some time very recently". You have been fine other than the time you tried prodding me to get into a wiki argument with Miles, just don't try to be pedantic about trivia. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 20:02, March 28, 2023 (EDT)
 
== Permission to turn my attribute data subpage into a project ==
 
I recently made a [[User:Unnamed anon/AllCharAttributes|subpage to organize all of the character's attributes before putting them on every fighter page]], as from what I can see on [[Template talk:Attributes]] this info should be on all fighter pages, though the actual template format had disagreements (though I hope my additions to Attributes1 could work out). However, I don't have the patience nor willpower to add in every characters attributes by myself, plus Brawl and 64 are missing double jump/short hop data, which means I can't actually start on brawl and 64. I see there's a [[smashwiki:Project|project category]] to get help on this, but it's only present on 4 pages; can I have permission to add it there? [[User:Unnamed anon|Unnamed anon]] ([[User talk:Unnamed anon|talk]]) 19:55, April 20, 2023 (EDT)
:The more appropriate thing is to label this as a [[Help:Drafts|draft]], when it's just for a single thing, and it still indicates to others that you want help.

== After blocked ==
 
I knew edit warring is an inappropriate behavior. CanvasK always dissatisfied with my edits, and thinking biasedly. Anyway, from Wikipedia, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Age&oldid=85287937 '''that date was written in 2006'''], but this is so outdated, so I thought that template needs to be updated. You won't be able to explain why these are 1980 and 1993. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Age/doc&oldid=150130478 The reason is it was written in '''2007'''] We will decide after [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Age#Change_to_automatic_update discussion] from Wikipedia. [[User:Tempest Tales|Tempest Tales]] ([[User talk:Tempest Tales|talk]]) 01:33, June 1, 2023 (EDT)
:What were you fucking told? Listen to the admins when they tell you to stop something and lay it off with that template. I have blocked you for longer as it clearly hasn't gotten through to you, if you come back after the block and repeat this behavior or otherwise continute to try undermining the administration, you will be blocked for a year.
 
:Also, [[SmashWiki is not Wikipedia]], there is no "we will decide after discussion on Wikipedia". <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[File: TyranitarMS.png ]] 06:36, June 1, 2023 (EDT)
 
== Moving [[Notice]] to [[Milestone]] ==
 
The move suggestion for [[Notice]] is still active, and there has been no active discussion for over 8 years. Only a single person during all this time said '''Support'''; there has been no active discussion ever since. Because of this, I feel like we should follow through with the move. Do you think so, Tyrant? [[User:Jordan2009|Jordan2009, the Sora Main]] [[User talk:Jordan2009|Talk here]] 14:39, June 6, 2023 (EDT)
:The move tag was added in [https://www.ssbwiki.com/index.php?title=Notice&diff=1696231&oldid=1693886 June of 2022], that IP's post from 2015 is irrelevant.

Hey, I would like you to answer my question: I have basically had my account for 8 days now (which goes over the minimum of 7 days to be autoconfirmed) and I have also made 10 edits (my first edit was on Thursday 26th October, which was 2 days ago). However, I'm still not autoconfirmed despite meeting the criteria. Can you please tell me why? Thank you.
