Italics

It doesn't matter either way. Right now, since there's so much to upload still, as long as images get categorized into the correct places, it's good.--immewnitythemew 17:41, 27 December 2012 (PST)

Alright, sounds good.--immewnitythemew 17:46, 27 December 2012 (PST)

Compression

On MarioWiki, I know that you guys compress for the smallest file size, and we sort of do that here, just not with JPEG files. Unlike PNG, TIFF, PSD, and even GIF, JPEG is a lossy format, which means that it obtains a smaller file size by sacrificing quality. There is no way for a JPEG to retain, pixel for pixel, the exact same image as it was before saving. Even more so, additional editing/cropping and compression just worsens image quality further. Therefore, if there's a JPEG version of an image, please do not compress it.

As far as PNG files go, optimization using OptiPNG or the like are okay, but if there are useful metadata tags (dates, original filename, artist, etc), try to leave them intact. As much as I love Paint.NET, it strips this metadata, so cropping in that wouldn't be good for images with that data.--immewnitythemew 08:27, 2 January 2013 (PST)

No problem!--immewnitythemew 14:05, 3 January 2013 (PST)

Image questions

Response.--immewnity (talk) 19:51, 15 January 2013 (PST)

Category pages

For categories, don't add the games included, as they will already be mentioned in Subcategories.--immewnity (talk) 16:39, 20 January 2013 (PST)

Re: Admin

No problem! Whenever you feel ready. :D --immewnity (talk) 07:46, 21 January 2013 (PST)

Re: Subseries

I guess so.--immewnity (talk) 03:46, 23 January 2013 (PST)

RE: Unused Hatted Kong.

If the character doesn't have an official name it should be categorized by what is known about it, so just leave the "|characters=" blank.--Da braviary (talk) 13:59, 27 February 2013 (PST)

Staff

Please check your email.--immewnity (talk) 04:06, 19 March 2013 (PDT)

Late Reply: MarioWiki

Yep. Sorry it took so long to reply, I barely come here. Red (talk) 10:24, 20 March 2013 (PDT)

RE: Categories question/suggestions.

YoshiKong, to answer your question on categorization, character pages and other subsets of each series should be put under “Category:Game-series series characters” (ex: Category:Mario series characters and Category:Mario series games), then categorize those under the series category. This allows for large lists without clogging the gallery. We will (hopefully) put together a guide in the future.--Da braviary (talk) 15:55, 22 March 2013 (PDT)

Welcome Template

It goes on their talk page. —★Pika3323 15:15, 24 March 2013 (PDT)

Spoilers

Got a question from Shibatamiyawata: "What's the PidgiWiki rule on spoilers? Some of the Layton art does use correct names, but they spoil the plot knowing them. For example, Clive is known as Future Luke until the climax of the story, hence this would be a big spoiler: http://www.pidgi.net/wiki/File:Clive_-_Professor_Layton_and_the_Unwound_Future.png "

Thoughts?--immewnity (talk) 20:40, 24 March 2013 (PDT)

Re: Wing Mario

Still Nintendo France. You have to convert color spaces from CMYK to RGB. Else, it looks wonky.--immewnity (talk) 08:23, 28 March 2013 (PDT)

It doesn't appear that GIMP has CMYK support yet, or at least not color space conversion.--immewnity (talk) 08:26, 28 March 2013 (PDT)
Yeah. I believe those were RGB already.--immewnity (talk) 08:39, 28 March 2013 (PDT)

Re: Shared artwork

To answer your question, if an artwork is shared across multiple games it should be categorized only under the first appearance of the artwork. (But if any alterations are made to the artwork in another game, that artwork, should be categorized under the name of the game it was altered in)

As for your other question, no.--Da braviary (talk) 12:34, 28 March 2013 (PDT)

Scans

Upload both of them as alternate files. This way, there's the non-scanned and the scanned versions for people to decide between.--immewnity (talk) 03:49, 11 April 2013 (PDT)

I personally don't have a need for them.--immewnity (talk) 10:52, 11 April 2013 (PDT)

cool

Did you make the wiki its pretty good. --N64dude (talk) 06:02, 13 April 2013 (PDT)
