Below is the image policy of the TEPPEN Wiki.
Uploading[]
Naming[]
When uploading a card image, you may keep the original name of the file if it was obtained from the official TEPPEN site. By default, these files are named after the card's No. such as Morrigan013.png or Tda030.png, this works well when building a new card page.
As for a full illustration of a card, these should have the same name as their "card" version but with the word "full" added to the end. Examples: Morrigan013 full.png, Tda030 full.png.
For any other type of image, you may choose any file name, however, it's important to note that you should name the file accordingly for easy identification and use. Avoid uploading an image with a name that makes no sense. If you find a file with a bad name, either move the file to rename it or add Category:Images to be renamed to it so that an admin can rename it.
Examples:
- Good
- Bad
- 123456.jpg
- 14wmlg2wshp4gylsl.jpg
Categories[]
All Images should be categorized with the correct category. Users can include multiple categories into any one image so long as all of them apply. When uploading images via Special:Upload, you will see the following options below the "Summary" box:
At least one category must be selected in order to upload an image to the TEPPEN Wiki. The following table explains how categories should be used:
