Please fill out the file summaries as you upload the file instead of taking another edit to do so. For example, all of the text in [[Special:Diff/513641|this edit]] could have simply been inserted into the <code>Summary:</code> box in the [[Special:Upload|upload form]]. --[[bp:User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 18:44, 10 September 2016 (UTC)

:That's what I did. I dunno what happened. I only did it like that because I didn't know what category to select.--[[User:CoolPokeGuy|CoolPokeGuy]] ([[User talk:CoolPokeGuy|talk]]) 20:00, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
::I'm not exactly sure what you mean by ''"That's what I did"'', but from the looks of it, it seems like all you're doing is clicking the <code>Choose File</code> button, selecting your file, and then clicking <code>Upload file</code>, without entering anything in for the Summary box or choosing a Licensing. Then, with your second edit, you're just manually inserting the Summary and Licensing onto the file page. This two-edit process is '''not''' what you should be doing.
::Taking [[:File:WTP XY123.png]] as an example, what you ''should have'' done (and ''should'' do in the future) is:
:::1. Click the <code>Choose File</code> button.
:::2. Select the desired file from your computer.
:::3. In the <code>Summary:</code> box, type in:
:::::<code><nowiki>== Summary ==</nowiki></code>
:::::<code><nowiki>{{WTP|703|Carbink|XYZ|XY123|922}}</nowiki></code>
:::::<code><nowiki>== Licensing ==</nowiki></code>
:::::<code><nowiki>{{i-Fairuse-screenshot-anime}}</nowiki></code>.
::::'''Alternatively,''' you can type in:
:::::<code><nowiki>{{WTP|703|Carbink|XYZ|XY123|922}}</nowiki></code>
:::::into the <code>Summary:</code> box and then click on the drop-down menu next to <code>Licensing:</code>, choosing <code>Screenshot from the Pokémon anime</code>.
:::4. Click on the <code>Upload file</code> button.
::I really don't know how to make this more clear. If you are still confused, please let me know.
::Also...just like on Bulbapedia, please keep conversations to ''one'' talk page. Thanks. --[[bp:User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 22:16, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
