Dream artwork
Hello! I was wondering where you got the newest Dream artwork. ht14 20:42, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi! I got it from the "Pokémon: Kids Winter Fest" badge collection. I've gathered all the pics missing from the wiki and I'm slowly uploading it all.FrenchOrange (talk) 20:49, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- No problem! Do you mind actually using this instead? File:###Pokémon name_WF.png I realize that all the Dream art really needs a huge overhaul, but these images are technically different from that of the Dream World. You can use the template I just created (WFart). The only difference between WFart and DWart is the template name. ht14 20:53, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- Sure thing! By the way I was wondering if it was fine if I moved a few images, since for example I've got artwork for female Unfezant, and I figured renaming the male one as "521Unfezant Male Dream.png" would make sense in terms of consistency.FrenchOrange (talk) 21:15, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hmm... I think we only have that one as default since there was no female artwork for Dream World, but if you're saying you do have it for Dream World, I don't see why not. Just to clarify again, the images that are being uploaded are from the Winter Fest, correct? I'd rather keep it in there specifically. ht14 21:07, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah they're from WF, which otherwise uses DW artwork in most cases. A select few of its "new" artwork also seems to have been used in other places, like the Pokémon Center website, but since here it's front and center instead of being limited to a microscopic thumbnail I assume it's only fair we use the WF tag. By the way, in retrospect my question was kinda dumb since yeah, that female artwork is from WF, I apologize for the lack of clarity.FrenchOrange (talk) 21:15, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- The reason I personally feel that they should be uploaded again is because they're from a different source, at least the way I'm processing it. (For reference, we have images from Pokémon Channel that are repeated in Dream World.) Hm, I guess for those that are originally from Dream World, we can keep those as Dream World? I'll have to talk to the other admins about that. If we could keep Dream as the latter case, then that'll save us a lot of time. I'll keep you up to date. ht14 21:32, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
- Sure! In the mean time I'll stick to the WF tag.FrenchOrange (talk) 21:52, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

(resetting indent) Hello! So I talked to the other admins, and the consensus we came to was that we'll be combining all the artwork from WF, Dream World, and Pokémon Channel together. In terms of filenames, we'll be using a new one, but don't worry too much about that; I can handle that part. So, for the images that are duplicates in the Winter Fest, you can actually upload on top of them (presuming the file is larger). I have for an example this image for your reference. For those that are duplicates of older files, simply upload the newer version (again, presuming the file is larger), and then add the wfart template to that file.
If that is confusing, feel free to let me know. Thanks so much for your help! ht14 04:20, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, I'm glad I could be of help! Also something I was wondering is if we could keep the WF version of Bulbasaur, given how its color scheme was updated in this game (same for Squirtle, Vulpix, Slowpoke, Cubone, Ditto, and Zapdos). I guess it's a similar situation than what happened with Chickorita's GS art, with it being yellow early on before receiving an update that swapped the yellow for green. Regarding images from this game that are of higher res than ones in the Dream category, I gave it a good look and I only managed to find Landorus and Popplio, so that should be all good.FrenchOrange (talk) 14:12, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
Link templates
Hello! Just wanted to let you know that aside from {{bp}}, we do have many of the templates from Bulbapedia as well, including {{p}} and {{a}}. As such, just a reminder that you link Pokémon with the p template. If you're curious about what other link templates that we have, you can check it out here. Thanks! ht14 17:07, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
Hi-Res Pokémon Art
Hiya! I was looking over some of your contributions, and I was wondering if you received permission from Hi-Res Pokémon Art to upload the images you did. ht14 01:32, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
- Heya! As stated in their Tumblr About section, their enhanced pictures are free to use, and a credit/shout-out is always welcome. Now I made sure to credit them in the few times I used some of their work in one way or another, but if I missed one or two then feel free to tell me so I can fix that up!

Image summaries
Please make sure the summary sections of the images you upload contain descriptions of the images and not just sources where the images are from. Thank you. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 00:21, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for listening. Also, please be aware that there are multiple different variations for the "Fair use" template. Instead of always using the basic one, please try to go with the one that fits the image you're uploading the best. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 08:58, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
- You're improving really fast! Well done! Now, I'd like to ask just one more thing: that you place the categories at the very bottom, instead of on the summaries section. This is more of a cosmetic thing, but it's how it's usually done. Thanks. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 17:52, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks a ton! Also, I gotcha on the categories thing, don't worry ^^ FrenchOrange (talk) 18:00, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Twitter images!
Hey there! Are you willing to link in the summaries to the specific twitter posts that you are getting the artwork from? I think that will help in the future if/when we try to archive content from the social media accounts. IF you have any questions, let me know, alright? Thanks! MaverickNate 10:15, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
- Sure thing! At first I just wanted to archive the Valentine's Day 2023 art, but then I went on a bit of a rabbit-hole haha. I think I'll work on the summary edits this afternoon. FrenchOrange (talk) 11:51, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
