Sprite updating?
Hi Mariofan! Thank you for taking the time to contribute to Zelda Wiki.

About your recent ALttP sprite uploads... May I ask what you thought was wrong with the ones that were there before? I don't mean to take away from your efforts, but original-size sprites are not exactly favorable over double or triple-scaled versions given that they're positively tiny.

I'm just wondering if there was a particular reason behind your updating. Cheers! 15:48, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Because I want the file to be the correct size, I also did this for AST's items, the Big Bag is an especially good update. I'm also going to upload the shovel as seen in the rental shop. --Mariofan5000 (talk) 16:34, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I just reverted all of these back to the sprites I made. While I know it is policy on the Mario Wiki to have original sized sprites, here we tend to prefer scaled up versions, as the wiki's in-built scaler makes small sprites appear very blurry, and small sprites are very hard to see on HD monitors. In future, can you please adjust the sprites you make to be consistent with those already on the wiki before you go uploading smaller versions? It seems very backwards to undo all of those previous sprites just to fit a few new ones, especially when it is visually inferior. It also led to a number of inconsistencies on various pages. I appreciate the work on the AST pages, however. 01:04, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

Image Sourcing
Hey, thanks for uploading those background rips of TFoE. I'd like to also point out that when uploading a new revision of an image, you should update the image's source accordingly with a link back. Merely giving credit to the ripper in the upload summary isn't enough, there needs to be a source link as well on the image's page. But thanks for uploading those, they're way nicer. 05:47, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
