Nookipedia talk:Upload policy

Server
I bought a server today at Timmy and Tommy's; the store was newly upgraded to the TIY Home Center. It was the first day it was open.

It is in the Sci-Fi series, pictured as http://moridb.com/items/furniture/server.

You may use any/all of this information to upgrade your site where appropriate and delete this submission.


 * I think we mostly have complete info for the Sci-Fi Theme. Besides, what has this got to do with the upload policy? Drago   (talk)     DragoPicACNL.png 05:25, January 6, 2018 (EST)

Fair Use Questions
Are images from other Animal Crossing wikis, that are taken directly from the game, like sprites, considered fair use? Is Nookipedia okay with images being sourced for upload in this way? If so, should the outside wiki it was found on be credited, or does that not matter when it's taken right from the game anyway? Poppliopal (talk) 06:29, October 30, 2020 (EDT)
 * Yep, it's perfectly fine to upload images like that as long as you include the source (in this case, a link to the file page on the other wiki). Also, if you're referring to the Fandom wiki, they have a much more lenient policy on images than us, so I would make sure the image was directly taken from the game and is unmodified. As for fair use, other wikis do not have ownership of images like sprites, as they are owned by Nintendo, and they themselves are using them under fair use. ~ AlexBot2004  ( Talk ) 10:33, October 30, 2020 (EDT)
 * Okay! It's good to know that about the policy differences, I will keep that in mind and look out for that. Poppliopal (talk) 11:04, October 30, 2020 (EDT)

Remove fields from default upload description
Right now, our default upload description is the file info template with all parameters listed:

Description and source are required and enforced via AbuseFilter. I'm proposing we remove the other fields (edits, other-versions, and source-file-name) to simplify the upload process; they're rarely used and we've had several editors leave those fields in as-is since it's not clear they need to be removed before upload. ~ Super  Hamster  Talk Contribs 17:55, August 8, 2021 (EDT)
 * , given that these fields are optional and that most users don't seem to be removing them whenever they upload an image. -- PanchamBro (talk • contributions) 19:22, August 8, 2021 (EDT)
 * - Sounds good to me! Sunmarshsignature.png  ( talk )  13:43, August 9, 2021 (EDT)
 * - Actually, thinking again about this, I think I would prefer leaving them, but adjusting the template so that if the default text is unchanged (e.g. "Describe any edits made (if applicable)") they do not display. Sunmarshsignature.png  ( talk )  11:49, November 7, 2021 (EST)

Fair use
Hi, I have a question

Is it under fair use if I use an image from the internet like youtube, in nookipedia?--ACNHelpr😊2435&#38; (talk) 12:00, October 20, 2022 (EDT)
