Help:Uploading Files

Guide to uploading images to SuperCombo Wiki through Special:Upload.

File Name Convention

Please name files using the game abbreviations when possible, as well as a short description that will let the file be easily identifiable by name alone.

Other than the usual - (dash) and _ (underscore) characters, avoid using special characters in file names as it can lead to confusion and may not work nicely with templates.

Format Examples

• GAMEABBREVIATION_Logo.png
• GAMEABBREVIATION_CHARACTERNAME_MOVEINPUT.png or GAMEABBREVIATION_CHARACTERNAME_MOVENAME.png (Input preferred over move name)
• GAMEABBREVIATION_Help_EXAMPLE.png

Examples for Under Night In-Birth

• UNICLR_Logo.png
• UNI_Linne_5B.png
• UNI_Help_HUD.png

How to upload new files

1. Have the file(s) you want to upload ready.
   • (Optional for single file upload) Rename the file to SuperCombo Wiki file name convention above.
2. If multiple files need to be uploaded, select "Yes" for the "Upload multiple files" option.
   • Note: Please ensure files are named properly. The multiple file upload will overwrite any files with the same name without any warning.
