Line 10:
* 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 [[Wikipedia:Fair use|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
* Whenever possible, please upload images in image formats that are less prone to quality loss when resized; for instance, instead of uploading a [[Wikipedia:JPEG|JPEG]] ('''.jpg''') file, upload a [[Wikipedia:Portable Network Graphics|Portable Network Graphics]] ('''.png''') image if you can find one, but '''DO NOT''' convert a JPG to a PNG, as this does not reduce the quality and only bloats the file size. When uploading sprites, please make sure that the background of the image is transparent (unless it is taken from a low quality screenshot, in which case the image needs to be replaced in any case).
* If you are uploading an image of poor or dubious quality (e.g. ones that have a watermark on them), be sure to add {{t|image-quality}} at the top of the file information page.
