Welcome

Welcome to the Bulbagarden Archives, CycloneGU!

By creating your account you are now able to upload images to help Bulbapedia and Bulbanews. Before you jump in, take a look at these helpful tips:

Uploaded images must meet several requirements. Please see the upload form and/or manual of style before you upload a new image.
All images need categories and license tags. Save time and fill them out as you upload. There are many different licenses - be sure to pick the best fit.
Use meaningful filenames. Make them descriptive so that searchers can find your images easily.
Personal images are no longer allowed. Any personal images found will be deleted on sight.
If you don't have any images to submit, you can still help out.
If you have any more questions, see the FAQ or ask a staff member.

Thank you, and have a good time uploading here!

Route 10 (Unova)

Hello, it has come to my attention an image you recently uploaded, which was found at File:B2W2 Rt10.png (which has now been moved to File:Unova Route 10 B2W2 closed.png due to reasons I will explain later). I must inform you of several mistakes you have made and therefore expect a better understanding once you upload a second time.

First, comes the linking. As you can see, this is Bulbagarden Archives, it's a separate entity from Bulbapedia and as such, using the standard linking method won't work here, as it'll link non existant articles here. For these cases, you'll have to use the {{bp}} template.
Second, the summary. You did well by creating that summary, but it was overloaded with information. You don't need to describe it in detail, a brief (but relevant) piece of information works just as fine.
Third, the file quality. We aim for high quality and native resolution when getting screenshots, this means that screenshots must not be zoomed in or blown up.
Fourth, you need to categorize your files when you're showing a character, so the image will be featured in said category.

These are crucial steps to become a great editor in this community, of course, reading the Manual of style always helps. If you have any questions, you can ask me or any other Staff member. We're always available for help. Thank you. Masatoshi_talk 02:57, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
