Picture removal

Hi, why removing an official picture and a regular section of a creatures page (References) in Fasolasuchus page?Chatmaigre888 (talk) 22:16, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

Why I did it

That wasn't an official picture of the Fasola saddle, that was fanart

If you want proof, here's a link

Precisely, this has been released from Community Crunch, WC fanzine. And as it's specified as a fan art, what does prevent to post this file?
This is not described like an icon nor a thumb for the genuine saddle used on the Fasolasuchus saddle page.Chatmaigre888 (talk) 23:10, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
  • What do you mean by "WC fanzine?"
  • ASA, the Fasolasuchus, nor it's saddle hasn't been released yet, so we don't know if it will have one or not
  • This fan art was released before ASA
  • I can tell that the fan art does not have the same texture or design as the official concept does

It may be fan art, but it's not official — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbmanos11 (talkcontribs) at 02:30, 29 August 2023‎. Please sign your posts with ~~~~

There was a page for Fan Art. The reason for, is separating official content (which is what is documented in articles in the main space unless an article is very clearly intended for fan-content) from unofficial content. It's been discontinued since we left Fandom, and replaced with STA and the official Discord.
Fan art that appears in Community Crunches is not considered official content in any way or form. It is merely being highlighted by the community team at Wildcard (and frankly nowadays seems to only fill a role of a filler/padding as CCs tend to be empty). Unless it makes it into the game or the specific piece of the "fan art" is said by Wildcard to be included in some form in future in an unaltered form, it does not belong in the main space.

Okay, I sent an email to you at 6:21 PM, now what? User:Cbmanos11

Check your inbox, Genie's sent you an email. Alex4401 (talk) 10:04, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

All he sent me was a ASA Steam key for wiki work, I play ark on xbox, not steam. Second, how do you put those icons I made for Fenrisúlfr (Someone already put it in the inbox, but it looks too small), Rubble Bear, and Hati and Sköll in their inboxs , I still need to figure out how to do it. Is there a much easier way to do it? User:Cbmanos11

Custom icons are being discontinued in favour of coloured icons (Chrome doesn't see them yet due to missing functionality support in the browser engine... workaround coming next week IIRC). Alex4401 (talk) 21:05, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

Oh, well, okay then. So we leave Fenrisúlfr, Rubble Bear, Hati and Sköll, and Beyla Spawn with question mark icons for now then? User:Cbmanos11

Planning to switch them over once the database gets rebuilt for ASA. It'll also enable the icon colouring system for mods. Alex4401 (talk) 13:45, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

Oh, okay, guess I'll wait then, how long will it take for the database to get rebuilt for ASA by the way? a week? a month? Just curious. User:Cbmanos11

Within two weeks I think. I'm currently working mostly on data extraction so don't wanna jinx myself or anybody else by stating exact progress. Alex4401 (talk) 18:42, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

Well, good luck with that data extraction

  • PS: if you have the time, could you please remove Rhyniognatha from the Recently Revealed Creatures on the main page, I don't think that it's "Recently Revealed" any more since it's already in the game and we know a lot about it. User:Cbmanos11
Passed the note on, I don't have admin rights, so. Alex4401 (talk) 22:35, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
