:I want you to notice what I've been uploading lately; I still have some 600 or so of these images to put up.  What I'll do is intentionally leave the wrong licensing (just slightly) on some of them.  This will give you a chance to correct it and at the same time see how the categorization of images is done when saving each one.  One I was going to have you interact with would have been putting in the template call yourself, thus adding Pokémon categories, but I figured a blank summary would be bad (Pokémon categories must accompany anything they appear in, which this template actually does for this group).
:The files to look at (I said it's the Johto starter group) will be BT152.png to BT160.png once uploaded.  You can find them via the upload log, which can be seen via Recent Changes under Tools.  I'll start with other ones, so reply ASAP to let me know if you're around and I'll start uploading them when I see the reply.  What you will do is change '''<nowiki>{{i-Fairuse-game}}</nowiki>''' to read '''<nowiki>{{i-Fairuse-sprite-game}}</nowiki>'''.  Look at the license line and also the category section before and after the first few to see how it changes the page.  Licensing is a very important step for any images uploaded (I've uploaded at Wikipedia too, it's super strict), and you will actually select the license yourself when uploading, but if you know the code - like the sprite one being used here, for instance -  you don't even have to select it, instead just including it in the summary box, which converts it correctly during the upload.
:I do not know the exact requirements for edits to upload images yourself (even if I did, I couldn't tell you), but editing these may be enough.  If you still can't upload after that, I'll set up another group for you.  Just look at BT152-BT160, just to clarify; they will be intentionally left incorrect.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 03:59, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
