I've got a question,

Why is this on the most viewed pages? --Malake256 ^{{Talk | Contribs}} 02:18, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Because It's been viewed 8,228 times :P _ZeldaMan ^{(PostboxStatus)} 02:21, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Just wondering,

Is there some way to browse images that have already been uploaded? Like, for example, if I wanted a picture of a Hunter Metroid, is there a way to tell if someone has already uploaded such a picture without knowing the specific file name? If this is somehow obvious and I am missing something, just let me know, but the Help only tells how to upload new images, not browse ones already there. If there are images that can be used, I'd rather use them than uploading brand new ones. --Nintendbob 15:37, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Go to the category to which a Hunter Metroid would fall under. Usually, such an image would already be added to the page, but occasionally people upload images before the page is created and an unused image just sits there. Head on over to Special:SpecialPages to find an array of lists that may be useful. More specifically, go here to look at uncategorized files which you wouldn't find under any category. There to go to files that are unused, that is, they don't appear on any page. And there to view all categories. The enemies category or Metroids category would be where an image of a Hunter Metroid would be if it existed. Hope some of that helped! --Malake256 ^{{Talk | Contribs}} 17:29, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
