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.

Card Images

I'm sorry, but we do not use card images with site stamps here. Uploading a card image with a site stamp is liable to get Bulbagarden in trouble with whomever owns the site the image is stamped with. If you want to upload better-quality images, find ones that do not have site stamps on then and upload those, don't go uploading images with a site stamp on it. --Shiningpikablu252 17:25, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Actually, you are not allowed to use any images from any other sites at all. You can only scan in cards that you have yourself. Maverick Nate 20:10, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

I am the webowner of collectorviper.com, and my stamp is viper.fox (my main name online), so these scans are from my own personal collection, if you were after clarification of this.

I am more than happy to share my scans of Japanese cards if there are none available in a higher quality elsewhere. On my own site, collectorviper.com, it is stated that the images are general fair use, so long as the watermark is kept in tact. Callyne4 23:18, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

But, the point is, we refuse to use any images with watermarks, and actually highly frown if the image is stolen from another site. You are welcome to upload yours without the watermark if possible, if you feel the need to. Maverick Nate 04:02, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi

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. --ht14 19:55, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Hey, this is your second reminder to please categorize images, thanks! ht14 04:56, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
Ah, my apologies-- I missed categorising one of the cards in my upload run. I'll endeavour to not have it happen again. Callyne4 (talk) 07:50, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
To elaborate on this, you're often forgetting to include the species and set categories on your uploads. These categories are highly important, so please remember to add them along in your file summaries next time. Thank you, - Kogoro - Talk to me - 09:58, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
Oh, I see (I feel super bad because I just uploaded a file before reading this so now I know what I've missed :x ). I'm a greenhorn when it comes to archives stuff, but I'll definitely ensure I remember actual categories et al. Somewhere down the line my brain went "yep you're good you've added the descriptor then the commons license wham lets go" I think. Callyne4 (talk) 12:48, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
