Hi there,

I know that you've been uploading a lot of new images lately, that are better quality that the existing ones, which is a good thing. However, it has left a lot of duplicate images, which are now unused.

If you aren't already aware of this function, I do want to point out that it's possible to update an existing image instead of uploading an entirely new one. If you're posting a better/larger version of an existing image, you can select the edit button for the image and select "Replace". As long as the image is the same file format (JPG for JPG, PNG for PNG, etc), you should be able to overwrite the previous version. Alternatively, you can select "Upload a new version of this file" from the File History tab.

I've gone and deleted most of the duplicates, but I'm hoping that this will be something useful to keep in mind when uploading new images. This will make it easier to deal with duplicate images on the wiki.

Thank you. Eikakou (talk) 06:50, April 24, 2016 (UTC)
