We've been getting complaints about how you've been going around changing other peoples' user images (which there's no written rule against but is probably at least frowned upon) and editing old archive pages (which is [[SmashWiki:Talk pages#Editing and removing other users' comments|very much against the rules]] without extenuating circumstances), both of which are flooding logs and categories with unnecessary cruft. Please stop doing so. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[File:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Producer 11:40, November 21, 2024 (EST)

:Understood. The two images are visually identical, so they aren't changing the content in any particular way. Those are the only two single-frame GIFs I had found anyway, so I wouldn't even have more to do if I wanted to. Generally speaking if archives aren't meant to be edited, I'd think they'd just be outright page protected. In regards to your comment on Discord, I don't believe this to be a waste of time at all, as it helps begin a process of better organization. The rest of the speedy deletions are as was asked about—either main page deleted, unused images, duplicate images, unused+unnecessary redirects, or blank pages. Nothing should be overtly controversial. [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 11:44, November 21, 2024 (EST)

::There seems to be some culture dissonance here. We tend to be pretty laissez-faire with things like protecting archives, uppercase file extensions, still images being unoptimised, and stuff like that. Historically, we've been able to trust the userbase enough that being lax with standards has not led to significant issues. So when someone unexpectedly applies more rigorous standards to multiple things in quick succession, eyebrows get raised. The primary reason for this message was to point out that archives shouldn't be edited without a very good reason; saying "probably don't replace user images" was just the catalyst for it (because doing so is likely to break archives).
