Make sure that each image you upload has lowercase extensions. Also put categories on the pages please. Maverick Nate 03:13, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
Unown
..(Serebii)? Are those images taken from Serebii.net? Kevzo8 06:05, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah. Done via Microsoft FrontPage... Ht14 12:37, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Did you ask for permission? We could get in trouble with Serebii for taking their screenshots from them without permission. Kevzo8 14:33, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- ...good point...I'll stop for now...what should I do though? Regarding asking Serebii I mean... ht14 14:36, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Uh, that's a problem. It's either you take the screenshots by yourself or ask Serebii about it then give credits to his site. Kevzo8 14:55, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- I'll do the latter...only...I dunno how to reach him... ht14 14:56, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- He's always lurking on Serebii.net forums. He seems to be a nice person though. Kevzo8 15:03, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Ok...or I'll email him... ht14 15:04, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- He said it's fine. ht14 16:02, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Credit them correctly though: for example, look at "File:Falkner.PNG". Maverick Nate 21:41, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Gamesprite
Get rid of the old template and license properly with {{i-Fairuse-sprite-game}}
. Otherwise it's categorized wrong. Don't forget section headers for licence and summary. —darklordtrom 04:58, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Moving
Can't move jpg files to png filenames. —darklordtrom 02:47, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
- True... how about jpg to jpg? As in <whatever the user called it>.jpg to Spinner_gen_4.jpg? ht14 02:49, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
Style
Follow it. MaverickNate 21:01, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- The summary is simply the article's name, and there are never spaces in between licensing and categories. MaverickNate 21:02, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- Uh oh... I've always been doing that for practically EVERY single image edit... ht14 21:03, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- I'm talking about the spacing. This means game images. ht14 21:05, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Congratulations
You've been an immense help here. Sorry that I can't be online here as often as I'd like. You deserve this. First thing though, when you move pages, delink the redirect, and delete it. MaverickNate 23:32, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
Better idea
Why not just "Z4.png"? CuboneKing 20:59, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not sure. One, PNG to png is actually a minor thing (though highly recommended). So, technically, I didn't need to move it unless a change to something other than the title is needed. Two, some say sprite, some don't. But for the sake of everything, I guess I'll move that too. ht14 21:02, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
Crystal images
Sorry I have no idea how :D Speaking of which, some kind of bulk uploader would be brilliant, I was being really OCD at the time and spent three hours uploading those, one by one. --Cadellin 09:34, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
Remember what Magnedeth told you?
Don't do that here. That isn't the style for here. Don't put the spaces on the image pages. MaverickNate 02:36, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- ? Spacing? Oh that. You said it didn't matter... unless you're talking about un-cat related... ht14 02:37, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
- That meant quit putting it in. But, if it is already done, don't go editing pages just to remove/add spaces. Just don't have the spaces for anything else you ever edit MaverickNate 02:54, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
When you are adding the summaries and stuff
Don't forget about {{unused}}
. You have to add that into the summary when the image isn't used on the wiki. MaverickNate 19:04, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- K. ht14 19:04, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- The images still need summaries. MaverickNate 19:07, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- All... got it. ht14 19:08, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- Gasp is right: you forgot the unused. MaverickNate 19:17, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- Don't make me head-desk again! MaverickNate 22:04, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- That means a lot of Template:unused pictures since there are a set of screenshots from movie 8, etc. I understand though. ht14 22:06, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Category:Characters of the day
It lumps together all the recurring characters too. For the sake of organization, everyone is considered a CotD. MaverickNate 13:44, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
Wanna know a secret?
The sprite standard does not have the hyphen in it. MaverickNate 18:58, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
- What about the letters? Unless you're talking about current sprite. If not, what about Unown-S? Are we going to label it as 201 s s?ht14 20:24, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, definitely not. It would be more like "201S s" if anything. And since the alternate-coloration "s" descriptor is always in lowercase, while most one-letter form denotations are in capitals...--Shiningpikablu252 04:51, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

Only! You crashed the server for a whole third of a day! Make sure your filenames don't suck! TTEchidna 10:46, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
Hate to tell you
But Category:EX Dragon had only 2 digits for a reason. It had less than 100 cards, and the three digits were purposefully not used. MaverickNate 04:19, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
"I demand to know who did this" on File:Spr 4p 440.png
That was you. And I know it wasn't intentional, just a botched tagging conversion. --Shiningpikablu252 02:45, 23 December 2009 (UTC)
{{Sugimoriart}}
Would be better under <includeonly>, but... seems fine.--Mew a.k.a. Immewnity 02:15, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
glitch images
The reason why I am afraid to move them is that this subpage needs a big file relinking. Some files with non-alphanumeric characters are left in that page. Since you already moved some, would you mind relinking all of them? Thanks in advance, Kevzo8 03:50, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
The Archives Manual of Style
...should be taken as a grain of salt. It's so outdated and does not even start to embellish on the current styles we have now. MaverickNate 03:21, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
Thanks!
For the help right now on the Sugimori art thing.--Mew a.k.a. Immewnity 22:56, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
- No prob... help me out then as "payback" per se. See my userpage for more details. Just tell me what you're doing beforehand. There's so many tasks at hand... ht14 22:57, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
I don't understand the warnings...
I have got 3 warnings about categorising cards or something like that. When I am uploading cards, I make sure I choose 'TCG card' at the bottom. I only forgot it once, but I still get warnings, and perhaps I'll be blocked for something I don't understand at all... Can this be clearly said, please? (I'm feeling nervous...) TokoyamiTheDark 02:59, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, so you're confused. No worries. What I'm saying is that you put on each file the category. As I've stated before, add 2 categories (Pokémon category and expansion category). See the edits that were made to the files you uploaded for instance. The bottom of each file has a section that talks about what categorization the file is in. That way one can easily find it, instead of only in one section (licensing). That part you're doing fine in. Here's an example of what I'm talking about. ht14 03:01, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Ah, thanks. I feel relieved. The reason I removed a message from my talk page was because it was a duplicate. (Somebody sent me a message long ago, then sent me back the EXACT SAME message, perhaps copy and paste?) If someone would compare both messages, nothing was changed, it was the exact same message, and I thought that was SPAM. Sorry. It won't happen again. TokoyamiTheDark 03:19, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
- It's fine. The statement sent is a template (Template:Pleasetag), but Mav says that you can keep going. Just so you know about the file categorizing. ht14 03:22, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Restoring just to comment
The commenting does not matter. Hell, most of the time I don't even bother with the reason anymore. Restoring an image just to correct what you said is absolutely something you should never do! MaverickNate 00:10, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
Re:Hey
I got the shot from the episode Bye Bye Psyduck (ep 91). And I had originally saved it as a PNG but it was 400kb in size and the JPG is 1/4 of that. :)
