Image uploads

Hiyo, please tag your uploads using the appropriate tags we have available by adding them to the file description on the upload page. For screenshots, we have a variety of tags depending on what system the game is on here. For renders, use this template.

Also, please make sure your screenshots follow the guidelines listed here, as some of the screenshots you uploaded have inappropriate resolutions for Wii and PS2 screenshots (NTSC-U PS2 screenshots are usually 640x448 but may vary by game and TV standard). I would also recommend reading this page so that files are appropriately named (e.g. a file like File:PlanetTablet.jpg could be named "SonicUnleashed WiiPS2 Render PlanetTablet.jpg". --BSonirachi (talk) 18:22, 28 January 2024 (EST)

But the "Sonic Unleashed Renders" category you added to the Tablets not even exists. The only items on that category are the Tablets that you added to it, but other Sonic Unleashed objects would qualify too if the category existed. --SonicUnleashedPS2 (talk) 20:01, 28 January 2024 (EST)
Because the category has yet to be created, and I didn't make it immediately at first as I had other things to do. Its purpose would be to categorise images that are 3D renders, like everything here. For future reference, if a category generated by a template doesn't exist yet, create it; and there's nothing stopping you from using the template if its category doesn't exist yet. :)
Also, please try to use the preview button and consolidate changes to as few page edits as you can, so that you aren't flooding the recent changes page and #wiki-reporting channel in the Discord server. --BSonirachi (talk) 20:15, 28 January 2024 (EST)

I can't write, he doesn't let me store! Well, ok, I copy it to here:

But the "Sonic Unleashed Renders" category you added to the Tablets not even existed. The only items on that category are the Tablets that you added to it, but other Sonic Unleashed objects would qualify too if the category was being used. I got quite confused about the way the file uploads work in this wiki with the tags and the other rules. Images like the items or concept art, enemies, and other things non screenshots/hardware/game covers didn't seem to fall into any of the presented categories here quite so well. As of the screenshots, I couldn't afford the right resolutions (unless I resized, but I guess that's cheating) because the screenshots are from footage and not directly taken from the machine, so they wouldn't fall into any of the consoles' categories in that sence. I got to admit, the file uploading is the one thing causing me more troubles it seems like. --SonicUnleashedPS2 (talk) 20:01, 28 January 2024 (EST)

Damn it, this is the wrong version of what I wrote, it's all wrong. Ok I don't know what to say, this is not what I wanted to send, this is all wrong...

So, let me see if I understand. I can create categories if they don't exist, just leave my images tagged and be sure to see if a category exists before creating one, gotcha. Next, I don't know what to do if page conflicts like this happen, because I lost what I was writing permanently. Let me just save now for prevention.

Image tagging isn't done automatically here, so our system is dependent on users manually adding the tags themselves when uploading, basically. --BSonirachi (talk) 20:46, 28 January 2024 (EST)
