| {{MM841||OK, a big problem on this wiki has come to my attention. To many user images. I am alright with one or 2, but some users have loads and loads. I say we limit every user to a max of 2 user images, and they can use pjotobuxket for the rest. What do you guys think?}} | | {{MM841||OK, a big problem on this wiki has come to my attention.

| {{KrytenKoro|I think you're talking about talk-box images - if so, what exactly is the problem? As long as they keep it on the talk pages, it's not making the articles messy. Plus, isn't offsite linking for images against policy anyway?}} | | {{KrytenKoro|I think you're talking about talk-box images - if so, what exactly is the problem?

| {{MM841||No, i mean user images, like these:<!--[[Image:430346610_42a485163b.jpg|left|thumb]]--><!--[[Image:GingerAnne.jpg|right|thumb]]--><br>and every single image on [[User:GohanRULEZ|this]] page.}}
| |
| {{TNE|text=Think we should go talk to GohanRULEZ about it ?
| |
|
| |
| Well, if that's the case, then we'll have to do the same for all users (me and Xiggie included).}}
| |
| {{Xiggie|surprised=I think that only 2 images might be a bit too strict... but there has to be a limit, e.g. [[User:GohanRULEZ|this]] page has WAY too many of them.
| |
|
| |
| but... just wandering, aren't user images for the users, to decorate their userpages and stuff? so can we really limit everything down to people who are just trying to be creative?
| |
| so as long as they put them all in the '''User Images'' category, what harm can it do?
| |
|
| |
| ''p.s. I am aware that I've loaded up a bunch of user images myself :P''
| |
|
| |
| ''p.p.s. How can you link a photo from photobucket to here? (I didn't know that was plausible! and if it is, I promise to start using that way (and making someone remove some of my images from here while I move them to photobucket...)''}}
| |
| {{MM841||just copy the direct link and paste it here, like this:

| {{Xiggie|happy=Oh, so it's this simple :P
| |
|
| |
| thank you very much Ultima :D}}
| |
| {{TNE|remerciement=Thanks for the tip Ultima. Once I'm done Wikitranslating some stuff, I'll proceed to remove the pix (and we'll have to let our admin know so she can proceed to delete them).}}

| |
| {{BebopKate|text=I be here, Troisnyx. It should be noted that our [[Help:Editing#User_pages|Editing Guide]] says user pages aren't to be used for image storage. What about if 3 non-wiki related images are allowed per user page? And anything else has to come from the wiki itself or must be stored off site like in photobucket.}}
| |
| {{KrytenKoro|In my mind, this wiki should not be hosting images unrelated to Kingdom Hearts. This isn't supposed to be a blog or a myspace page, and while we're much more relaxed than wikipedia, there's still such a thing as too much.}}
| |
|
| |
| {{TNE|text=Okay. Let's get everyone to store non-KH-related user stuff elsewhere, and then once we're all done, we can proceed with deletion. How's that ? ;-)
| |
|
| |
| EDIT: I started by marking my Yuffie user image for deletion, and linked back to the same image on Photobucket. Now, please, somebody... help me resize it...}}
| |
| {{BebopKate|text=*shrugs* Works for me, too. I'm not really affected either way. It is getting too late for me to go around and delete things right now; if you guys will mark them once you've saved them, I'll take them out tomorrow, since I have some other stuff to get rid of anyway. I'll also update our Editing Guide.
| |
|
| |
| If one or more of our mods would also go around and (nicely ^_-) let other users with in-violation images know about our new rule on their talk pages, I would appreciate it. I'll update the Front Page when I'm done here. Give them a week, I suppose. That way they have time to check over the weekend and save anything they want to keep.}}
| |
|
| |
| {{TNE|shocktext=Another thing before I proceed to mark all my user images for deletion : how do I resize images from Photobucket, and how do I display them in gallery view ? Both of them don't seem to work.
| |
|
| |
| I placed an announcement about the User Image rule in my talk page, and I approached two users thus far. I don't know how else to go about it. I truly can't do this alone. Ultima, Guardian Soul... help me !}}
| |
| {{BebopKate|text=Alrighty...only a day late, but non ''Kingdom Hearts'' images have been removed. I have made a teeny allowance for fan and humorous images, but if they get out of hand, out they all go.}}
| |
| {{TNE|shocktext=Guys. We have a problem. Photobucket images aren't displaying at all. Only the links are showing. And it's marring our userboxes/infoboxes/whatever. Ultima and I are going through the same problem.}}
| |
| {{ILHI|16:18, 23 April 2009 (UTC)|Wiki update which has changed Image space to File space, allows you to edit templates from the edit form for transcluded templates, and stops external files from working, among other things.<br><br>It's a serious pain. I haven't even checked up on my wikis which use loads because on the original WikiHosts we had to externally upload all images.}}
| |
| {{TNE|shocktext=Oh no ! I'd better tell [[User:Angela|Angela Beesley !]]}}
| |
|
| |
| Hello. We are updating the wiki to the latest version of the software (MediaWiki 1.14). There is more information on this at [[Wikia:Forum:MediaWiki 1.14 upgrade]]. The photobucket problem was a temporary issue with the image whitelist and is now fixed. The image namespace is now called the file namespace, but <nowiki>[[image:whatever...]] will redirect to [[file:whatever...]]</nowiki> so that no links will break. If you find it causes any problems with templates, please [[special:contact|contact staff]] for help fixing those.
