Editing User talk:ToxicOJ

Please take a moment to review [[SW:IMAGE]] and [[Help:Image copyright tags]].

:I do not understand what I did wrong. [[ToxicOJ]] 10:35 29 July 2014(EDT)
::A few tips, then, to clarify. In general, you should try not to upload blurry or low quality images unless there aren't any better ones available. Additionally, you should check before uploading if a similar image already exists on the site, to avoid redundancy. Finally, be sure to use appropriate image copyright tags when uploading; in the case of game screenshots, this usually means you should use the fair use tag.

:::Thank you for that, the images I've been uploading are the best ones I can find, and if I upload an image that's already there and I see it, I remove the one I uploaded. I just started a few days ago, so I don't fully understand tags, so I don't know what they are for. [[User:ToxicOJ]] 10:56 29 July 2014 (EDT)
::::When responding, you should start on a new line and add an additional : to the response. Take a look at the way our responses are formatted for clarification. <span style="font-family:Forte">[[User:Megatron1|<span style="color:maroon">Mega</span>]][[User talk:Megatron1|<span style="color:silver">Tron1</span>]][[User:Megatron1/Laughology|<span style="color:blue">XD</span>]]</span>[[File:Decepticon.png|19px]] 11:29, 29 July 2014 (EDT)

Thanks [[ToxicOJ]] 11:31 29 July 2014 (EDT)
:Please remember to apply license information when you upload so it doesn't have to be added in afterwards. You can find a drop-down box under the "Insert common text" box when you upload a file. This will allow you to select the proper license for the file, and it will then be added in automatically when the file is uploaded. Thanks! [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 15:08, 29 July 2014 (EDT)

I do not understand what licenses are for, or what they do. Can you please explain that? [[ToxicOJ]]  16:35 29 July 2014 (EDT)
:Licenses are required, as they indicate whether the images are copyrighted or from public domain. Also, please, try adding them when you upload so we don't have to add them for you.
:Finally, to upload a new version of an image, go to the file page of the image in question, then click on upload new version. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 16:58, 29 July 2014 (EDT)

How to you add them correctly? [[ToxicOJ]] 20:28 30 July 2014 (EDT)
:You can add templates such as <nowiki>{{fairuse}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{PD}}</nowiki> on the licensing section of the file page. User fairuse for things that are copyrighted and use PD on things that are not so copyrighted by Nintendo and the like.

== NIWA News ==

Please don't add SSB4 to the NIWA news template. First of all, we already have a countdown showing the release, making it redundant. Second, the template is for games that are part of one of the representative series, not the Smash series itself. Thanks! [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 20:20, 16 August 2014 (EDT)

Also, when someone reverts you, don't try to re-add that info. It would be considered a violation of [[SW:1RV]]. [[:User:ZeldaStarfoxfan2164|ZeldaStarfoxfan2164]] ([[User talk:ZeldaStarfoxfan2164|talk]]) is bad for me  20:22, 16 August 2014 (EDT)

== Editing userspace under red status ==

I noticed you made several edits in a row to your userspace while SmashWiki is under red status. A lot of those edits could be easily avoided if you used the Preview button. It's next to Save Changes. Use that instead, so you won't clog Recent Changes. Also, use caution while editing your userspace under Red or Yellow wikistatus. Overdoing it without contributing to the mainspace, especially when the wiki is under those statuses, may result in {{s|SmashWiki|probation}}. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 09:56, 2 September 2014 (EDT)

I don't understand how editing my wiki page could be a problem. [[User:ToxicOJ|ToxicOJ]] ([[User talk:ToxicOJ#top|talk]]) 09:59, 2 September 2014 (EDT)
::You might need to look at [[SmashWiki:SmashWiki Status System|how wikistatus works]]. Red status means the mainspace really needs help. With the game coming in just 2 weeks in Japan, the status will worsen then. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 10:05, 2 September 2014 (EDT)

Ok, thank you[[User:ToxicOJ|ToxicOJ]] ([[User talk:ToxicOJ#top|talk]]) 10:06, 2 September 2014 (EDT)
:::Okay, you really need to watch your userspace edits. Sure, you made some constructive edits, but you made 7 additional userspace edits in the course of a couple hours. Try to focus more on the mainspace and ''keep userspace edits to a minimum'' while status is yellow or red. It may be quite a while--probably a couple months--before we finally get out of red status. Also, remember to use the preview button. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 22:58, 2 September 2014 (EDT)

== Hey, regarding the Kirby hat images ==

I don't know if you've noticed, but I've already uploaded them all, so you really don't need to do anything. At this point, it's inadvertently creating duplicate images. Thank you. <span style="font-family:AR DESTINE">[[User:Air Conditioner|{{Color|Navy|Air}}]] [[User talk:Air Conditioner|{{Color|#007BA7|Conditioner}}]]</span> [[File:AC.png|19px]] HaS a CrAPPy KEyboaRd 20:00, 13 September 2014 (EDT)

Some of the photos are low quality and too close to the character. ([[User:ToxicOJ|ToxicOJ]] ([[User talk:ToxicOJ#top|talk]]) 20:02, 13 September 2014 (EDT))

:Fair enough, but could you upload them under the same name instead of using different file names? All it does is create more work for others later on that way. <span style="font-family:AR DESTINE">[[User:Air Conditioner|{{Color|Navy|Air}}]] [[User talk:Air Conditioner|{{Color|#007BA7|Conditioner}}]]</span> [[File:AC.png|19px]] is a Mr. Saturn. 20:04, 13 September 2014 (EDT)

-I have tried, and all it does is stretch the existing photo. ([[User:ToxicOJ|ToxicOJ]] ([[User talk:ToxicOJ#top|talk]]) 20:05, 13 September 2014 (EDT))
-And most of them are listed as .png ([[User:ToxicOJ|ToxicOJ]] ([[User talk:ToxicOJ#top|talk]]) 20:13, 13 September 2014 (EDT))
-Heads up: if an image doesn't seem to have updated when you upload a new version, try hard refreshing the page or using a "purge" load. To do that, copy the "edit page" link and change the word edit in the URL to purge.

-The image "MiiFighterIcon(SSB4-U).png" is going to be deleted. Please replace it with the newer variants beforehand, or I'll do it myself by simply removing it.
