Got a spare minute? The Archives need some love. See the to-do list to find a way to help.
If you upload a new image make sure you name and categorize it properly. If in doubt, ask an admin or see our FAQ page.

==Images that don't belong to any of those categories?==
I'm currently cleaning up the formula pages, and those formulas aren't screenshots, sprites, pictures taken from the anime, personal images, or anything. What should I put the category as...? [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 13:07, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

== Category wording  ==
"Images containing large groups of characters or Pokémon should be placed in the ''Large group artwork'' category. The image should also be added to the categories of any characters and/or Pokémon particularly prominent in the group."
:This says that the category is "Large Group Artwork", the images right now say that they are in the "Large group images" category. This may need to be changed to match that.

== Sprites size. ==
An exception should be made if the sprite animation makes it bigger than the size, such as [[:File:Spr 3e 249 s.gif|Lugia's Emerald sprite]] or [[:File:Spr 4d 486.png|Regigigas's Generation]][[:File:Spr 4p 486.png|IV sprites]]... and this isn't noted.

:My best bet would be still sprites being the format listed. When the images are frozen for Emerald and Generation IV, they have a typical size as well. So that'd probably be the format that is referred in the MoS.

Cover pages

A lot of the cover pages related with mangas are named differently and incorrectly such as this one. How can the cover pages be named in a way that it describes the image better? Pattyman (talk) 23:49, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

The name I had in mind was, [Media name] [Company name/Region abbreviation] volume [vol. #].png. You can find some examples with the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! covers. I'm just waiting for approval before I continue with the naming convention. Pattyman (talk) 20:55, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
