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.

Please

Please read the checklist when you upload media files, and be sure to tag and categorize all images. If you're confused about the requirements for uploading files, have a look at this guide. — THE TROM — 01:42, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Make sure

You put the correct categories on. This diff will be a help to you. Also, it's not a personal image, it's an anime screenshot. Personal images are images you've created yourself. :D — THE TROM — 19:51, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

You don't need to have plus signs in the summary. That just screw everything up. All you need to do, is put a summary and categories into the summary box, and pick a licensing tag from the drop down. Maverick Nate 21:50, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Please make sure you use the right categories. If it appears red, it doesn't exist and is wrong. MaverickNate 22:58, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Serebii

Please don't take picture from Serebii.net. First of all, they are tiny. Second of all, we could get in trouble with Serebii for taking their screenshots from them without permission.

Here's a website you should try instead. Filb.de. We are allowed to use there pictures and they are way better than Serebii pictures. Also you can click and save these pictures which you can't do for Serebii pics (which is a hint that they don't want you to take them). If your having trouble reading the language, just follow the epicodes. For example, go to "062" in the Diamond & Pearl series to get KitchenMaidShipping pics.

Also, try try try to make them PNG. Not required but it looks better. Thanks! --Kenji-girl 02:28, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Categories = Important

Categories help us find images later down the track. Please remember these for future uploads. Put them in the upload summary box, as shown here. Also, try and upload in .png format. This often gives a higher quality image. —darklordtrom 00:30, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

You've got the categories down, now just remember to put a summary in the summary box. It doesn't have to be much, just a sentence describing what's happening in the picture. MaverickNate 01:07, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
Although you have the concept of categories, we only have categories for main characters (Ash, Misty, James, Jessie, etc.) For anime characters who have appeared only in one episode of the anime, we use this category, while for those who have either appeared in more than one episode and/or was important enough for plot enhancement, then we use this category. If you're confused, speak up. ht14 22:59, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

You're images

They aren't better than what we already have. They are much to small, and some are even cropped. Since your poor quality pngs are worse than the jpgs we already have, they will be deleted. Either improve them, or stop uploading them. MaverickNate 03:39, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Categorising properly

Hi, Tandra88. Please use square brackets instead of curly braces when categorising pages. So, instead of writing {{Category:Spinda}}, you should be writing [[Category:Spinda]]. Cheers. —darklordtrom 01:34, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

I've already fixed it. Now you know for next time. —darklordtrom 02:13, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
