Stardew Valley Wiki

Visual media, like images and videos, can be a great way to display subjects or objects about any topic. Media can be uploaded in a very wide variety of formats. When uploading any media, we ask that you abide by the rules below and follow guidelines as closely as you are able to.

Do Not Upload, Under Any Circumstance

Infractions of the following five rules, stated below in bold type, will result in an indefinite block from our wiki, potentially without appeal, at the discretion of the acting administrator.

  • Media that includes nudity, pornography, death, gore, racism, violence, profane language, or anything else considered lawfully inappropriate for children.
  • Media that compromises or damages the physical or psychological health, safety, or well-being of other people.
  • Media that advertises services, businesses, products, or organizations that aren't related to Stardew Valley, ConcernedApe, or Fandom, Inc.
  • Media that distributes identifying and sensitive information about persons other than yourself without the person-in-subject's explicit consent.

General Media Uploading

1. We encourage users to link media of their farmer/farm/town only to their own userpages or user blog posts instead of article pages when possible.

2. Media uploaded to article pages in the main name-space should be up-to-date versions, informative, and distinctly related to Stardew Valley.

4. Please upload quality media when it's purpose is for article pages. Media that is cut off, poorly cropped, filled with unnecessary elements, too small/long, or blurry/poor resolution will be deleted or replaced.

5. Do not upload and link media to the main name-space article pages that have nothing to do with Stardew Valley.

6. We don't want loads of random files sitting around in our wiki. If you are no longer using an upload on your userpage, you may edit the file page by adding the {{Delete}} template, and an administrator will delete it when they are able to. Otherwise, unused media will be deleted without you being notified.

9. When manually uploading with the Special:Upload function, edit the file page with an applicable category after uploading.
- For videos, you can use [[Category:Videos]].
- For images intended for userpages and userblogs, use [[Category:User images]].
- For most article pages that are a unique aspect of Stardew Valley there will be a specific category, always ending with "icon" or "image" in the name. Some examples: [[Category:Item icons]], [[Category:Monster icons]], [[Category:Location images]], etc.

Image-Specific Uploading

1. It is highly encouraged to upload .png file types for images that are distinctly Stardew Valley and that are also intended to be used as the identifying image in an article page for a specific subject or object within Stardew Valley.

2. Avoid linking multiple images of the same thing or the same image multiple times on one article page. A couple images here or there is fine, but filling up the page with images is messy and counter productive.

3. Create a gallery or style a wiki/article-table to keep images organized, compact, and pleasant to view for when large quantity of images can't be avoided. For example, an article of all the fish in the game or all the versions of a villager's portrait.
