The Secret Society - Hidden Mystery Wiki:Forum, Message Wall and Personal Images Guidelines

Guidelines adopted 1 May 2019 Thread:799379

Guidelines for Forum, Message Wall and Personal Images:

Images (Files) uploaded to the wiki Forum and Message Walls are kept in one central image database. Every image uploaded to the wiki has a unique File:Name. The following guidelines will help keep the image database organized, minimize duplicate images and help members find and reuse their images. If you are having any difficulties with your images contact an admin or experienced member for help.

Subject Matter of Forum Images
While the wiki is open and inclusive, any image that causes disharmony, (e.g. Politics, suggestive jokes) is not appropriate. These "hot" topics can cause disharmony. If in doubt about an image, err on the side of caution. Do not upload the image.

Questionable or Controversial Images
If you find an image questionable or controversial contact an Admin(s). An Admin will remove the image.

All images uploaded to the wiki are subject to Fandom’s Terms of Use (ToU). From Fandoms Terms of Use: ''You agree not to use the Service to:

Post or transmit any content that is obscene, pornographic, abusive, offensive, profane, or otherwise violates any law or right of any third party, or content that contains homophobia, ethnic slurs, religious intolerance, or encourages criminal conduct;''

Fandom uses bots to scan all wikis for content violations of ToU. The Fandom bot will remove any and all content it finds to be in violation of ToU. Do not re-upload images deleted by Fandom. If you find an image has been deleted check the Deletion Log or ask an admin.

Image Names
Name images something recognizable.
 * When uploading an image, the name should contain a descriptive word(s) of the image. Do not leave your image named File:23DQ354972… or IMG348956.png instead use File:Minion congratulations(only8).png. Add your name if you would like to find your images and reuse them.

Never overwrite a Filename. This will delete the previous image.

Add your image ONLY once.
 * If you remove your post or decide to start over on your post. Do not upload your image again. This isn’t necessary. With a recognizable name, you will be able to find your image instead of having duplicate, triplicates and even quintuplets of images in the image database.

Reuse your image by searching the images already uploaded.
 * If you didn’t rename your images, check your contributions. Your contributions will list every File you have uploaded and its name.

Instructions for renaming images when uploaded.

After clicking the Add image icon you should get this window.

After clicking the Upload button you should see this window.



Click on More Options You will then see 2 more options. Name and Licensing. In the Name field, you can change the name of your image. This is the name your image will have in the wiki's image database.



Finish any other adjustments and click the Add photo button. The image will have a new name for the wiki and you will not have to change your image naming system on your device.
