'''NOTE:''' If you're uploading a new version of a file, you may not see the change right away. '''If that happens, don't re-upload or revert the file; you need to {{wp|Wikipedia:Bypass your cache|hard-refresh the page}} or clear your browser's cache to see the change.'''
{{color|'''WARNING:'''|red}} Remember that your upload(s) '''''must''''' abide by British copyright law, as failure to do so would result in copyright violations and '''wiki closure'''. Miraheze is based in the United Kingdom, which uses a {{plain link|[https://www.gov.uk/guidance/exceptions-to-copyright#fair-dealing fair dealing system]}}; it is similar yet slightly stricter than America's {{wp|fair use}} system.

== Guidelines ==
* When uploading a file, please specify its license. '''All licensed media pertaining to the main ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise are copyrighted by Nintendo themselves, and third-party and licensed media are copyright of their respective parties. They are being used here under {{wp|fair use}}.
* Please provide an appropriate file name. For example, if you're uploading a PNG image depicting [[Mario]] from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', name it "Mario SM64 artwork.png" rather than "2025345-35345a.png".
* Users are allowed to upload their own [[:Category:Personal images|personal images]], which are images that are unrelated to what Mariopedia covers (e.g. fan art), as long as it does not become excessive.
Line 19:
* '''<tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>{{ns:file}}<nowiki>:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]]</nowiki></tt>''' to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with 'alt text' as description
* '''<tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>{{ns:media}}<nowiki>:File.ogg]]</nowiki></tt>''' for directly linking to the file without displaying the file
