===Completing requests===
When uploading an improved version of an image, it is preferable to upload a new version of the same file (providing the old and new file types are the same), as this avoids the need to edit the pages on which the original image was used. If a new file is uploaded, the image which it replaces should be removed from use and deleted. When viewing the old file, the pages to be edited can be found under the "File links" section. Once all of the links have been pointed to the new image, the [[template:delete|<nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki>]] tag should be added to the old version. Should the uploader not feel able to do this for any reason, they may simply place a link to the improved file below next to that which it replaces, in the format:<br>
''<nowiki>File:OriginalFilename</nowiki>'''''<nowiki>|[[:File:NewFilename.png]]</nowiki>'''

A large number of the images on Zelda Wiki.org are in need of improvement. Chiefly, there are a lot of images needing background transparency and a lot to be cropped from the black portions remaining from screenshots. All users are free to, and encouraged to, place image requests on this page. Please note that only administrators, and people approved as being capable by the administrators, are able to carry out the background transparency requests and other requests. This is to ensure that the images meet the Zelda Wiki.org Quality Standards. Anybody is free to do the screenshot cropping. If you think that you have the ability and skill to help out with requests, contact either Matt, Melchizedek or Steven, who will keep a watch over this page and work on a lot of the requests.


Background Removal (Transparency)

This is where you can request for image backgrounds to be removed and made transparent. Images that have had their backgrounds removed incorrectly can also be placed here. Just add the image to the gallery. You don't need to sign in this section.


Screenshot Cropping

This is where you can request for the black portions around the edges of screenshots to be removed. Just add the image to the gallery. You don't need to sign in this section.


Other Requests

This section is for image editing requests that don't fit into the two categories above. For this section, add the image, make your request and sign your post with ~~~~.

Anyone think they can fix up this image or sharpen it a little or something? If so, that'd be great. Alter  {T C B H } 18:21, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
