{{Cleanup image|Explanation}}
links talk view

  • Note: This tag should only be used if none of the following cleanup templates applies, or for specific requests.
Category:Media for cleanup

{{Convert to SVG}}
links talk view

All images in this gallery could be re-created using vector graphics as SVG files. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.

Category:Images that should use vector graphics

{{Convert to PNG}}
links talk view

PNG This image was uploaded in a format such as JPEG (or GIF). It could be stored, however, in the PNG format which supports alpha transparency and lossless compression, meaning that changes do not reduce the image quality. If possible, please upload a PNG version of this image (from a non-JPEG source or with existing compression artifacts removed). After doing so, replace this template with {{SupersededPNG|New Image.png}}, and please replace all instances of the previous version throughout Commons (noted under the "File links" header). For more information, see Commons:Preparing images for upload. JPEG & PNG
Category:Images which should be in PNG format

{{BadSVG}}
links talk view

All the SVG images in this gallery contain embedded raster graphics.[1] Such images are liable to produce inferior results when scaled to different sizes (as well as possibly being very inefficient in file size). If appropriate to do so, they should be replaced with images created using vector graphics.
Note: This template is only supposed to be used if the SVG file mixes vector and raster graphics. If the SVG file only contains raster graphics {{FakeSVG}} is supposed to be used. See also {{TopoSVG}}.
Category:SVG images with embedded raster graphics

{{FakeSVG}}
links talk view

This image is not a real SVG, just a fake (wrapper). It is a raster graphic without vector coding.
Using SVG as just a wrapper is undesirable.
Note: This template should be used if the SVG file contains only raster graphics. If the SVG file contains both vector and raster graphics, then use {{BadSVG}}.
Category:Fake SVG

{{TracedSVG}}
links talk view

All the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) in this user page appear to have been inadequately vectorized, for example, by auto-tracing, and may require revectorization to meet quality standards.
Automatic tracing of complex images can produce overly-large files, inaccurate outlines, and often miss out smaller details completely. Please consider editing this image by hand in a vector editor to improve it. For further information please see our picture tutorial and SVG help (or check the talk page). For assistance, refer to the Graphics Lab.

{{Path text SVG}}
links talk view

Category:Path text SVG

{{BadGIF}}
links talk view

The images in this gallery were uploaded as GIF, while a different format would have been more suitable. Commons discourages the use of GIF files, except for animations. See Commons:File types for more information.
If possible, please upload a PNG version (or JPEG for some photos) of this image, and mark the GIF image as {{Superseded|‹new image name›}}. If you like, encourage other Wikimedia projects using the GIF to use the new version instead.
If this image is a diagram or other image suitable for vectorisation, please tag this image with {{Convert to SVG}} instead of {{BadGIF}}. If not suitable for vectorisation, use {{Convert to PNG}}. For more information, see {{BadGIF}}.
Category:Images with inappropriate GIF format

{{BadJPEG}}
links talk view

All images in this user were uploaded in the JPEG format even though it consists of non-photographic data. This information could be stored more efficiently or accurately in the PNG or SVG format. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image without compression artifacts, derived from a non-JPEG source (or with existing artifacts removed). After doing so, please tag the JPEG version with {{Superseded|NewImage.ext}} and remove this tag. This tag should not be applied to photographs or scans. If this image is a diagram or other image suitable for vectorisation, please tag this image with {{Convert to SVG}} instead of {{BadJPEG}}. If not suitable for vectorisation, use {{Convert to PNG}}. For more information, see {{BadJPEG}}.
Category:Images with inappropriate JPEG compression

{{BadPDF}}
links talk view

The files in this gallery were uploaded in PDF, despite containing only graphic data. If possible, please upload an (extracted) image version of this file instead. See Commons:File types for more information.
Category:Files with inappropriate PDF format

{{FakePDF}}
links talk view

This document is not a real PDF, just a fake (wrapper), it is a raster graphic without vector coding.
Such misuse of PDF as Metafile is undesirable.
Category:Fake PDF

{{Artifacts}}
links talk view

This image was uploaded in the PNG or GIF (or other lossless) image format. However, it contains visible lossy compression artifacts. These artifacts may have come from the JPEG format, from saving a single colorful image as GIF instead of PNG or from saving an animated GIF using the incorrect settings (See also Dither). If possible, please provide a superior version of this file, derived from a non-lossy source (or with artifacts removed). If applicable, please replace all instances of the artifact version throughout Wikimedia projects, tag the old version with one of these templates, and remove this tag. For more information, see Commons:Preparing images for upload and Commons:Media for cleanup.
Category:Images in lossless format with lossy compression artifacts

{{Overcompressed JPEG}}
links talk view

This image was uploaded as a JPEG, which is an acceptable file format. However, it displays high levels of JPEG artifacts due to excessive compression. If possible, please re-upload this image with less compression for higher quality, or consider uploading it in PNG format. Proper downsizing and compression can be performed with various image-editing programs. After replacing this image with a higher quality version, please remove this tag. For more information, see Commons:Preparing images for upload.

{{Opaque}}
links talk view

This image was uploaded with an opaque background where it should have been transparent. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image, derived from a non-JPEG source so that it has an alpha channel and no compression artifacts (or with existing artifacts removed). If it is not possible to obtain a cleaner version then consider creating a new, derivative, image with the background removed, while leaving this image alone; use templates such as {{Retouched picture}} and {{Derivative versions}} as appropriate; then ignore the rest of these requests. After doing so, please:
  1. Find all pages in all Wikimedia projects that use this image, and replace the old image with the new image in each.
  2. Mark this image as having been superseded by adding one of these templates.
For more information, see Wikipedia:Preparing images for upload.

{{Thumbnail}}
links talk view

This image is a scaled version of an original. Please re-upload the full resolution version. If the name of this image refers to its size, upload the larger version to a different name which does not do so and update all existing references to this image. When the larger version is available on Commons with a different name, mark this image as a {{Duplicate}} (unless it isn't, for example if this is a hand-tweaked low-resolution icon).
Category:Images uploaded at reduced resolution

{{Low quality}}
links talk view

This image (or all images in this category/page) is very small, unfixably too light/dark, or may not adequately illustrate the subject of the image. If a higher-quality image is available please consider replacing this one; otherwise, a replacement under a free license should be found or provided.

Please see Category:Image cleanup templates for templates used to mark images that only need a clean-up.

{{Colour blind}}
links talk view

This image relies on colours to convey information. However, the colours used make it difficult or even impossible for people with colour blindness to read the information. Please consider changing the colours to meet the needs of a wider audience.

{{Restoration}}
links talk view

This image needs restoration. If the old version is still useful, for example if restoring the image will alter the image significantly, upload the new version under a different title so that both can be used (e.g. [[File:Mount_Everest.jpg]] → [[File:Mount_Everest - restored.jpg]]. After uploading the restored version, replace this template with: {{superseded|File:Mount Everest - restored.jpg|image restored}}, replacing the italicised name with the file name in question.
