| − | Sega Retro uses '''image tagging''' to help make its system easier to use and maintain. With the tens of thousands of images Retro contains, it is important to make sure we know what an image is so it can be properly placed in the series of categories we have exclusively for images. The process of tagging is very simple: when using [[Special:Upload]], you will see a field called "Summary." From there, you add a simple string to call a template, which will place information about the image underneath the image and put it in its correct category. The tagging system can seem complex at first, because there are many different tags, but is simple once the proper tags are known.

| − | ==Uploading a photo of hardware==
| |
| − | Sega Retro recognizes two types of hardware photos: '''core hardware photos''', such as pictures of consoles, the mainboards inside them, or chips/ICs inside the, and '''accessories''', such as controllers and peripherals. Use the following syntax to upload either one:
| |
| − | | |

| − | ! Template || Description
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | <nowiki>{{Hardware|System Name}}</nowiki> || Adds a photo of hardware for System Name (fill in the blank for the correct system)

| − | ==Uploading game-related media==
| |
| − | Game media uses a unique three-tier structure for sorting and classifying any box/cover, cart/disc/media or manual that falls under the [[:Sega Retro:Scope of Project|scope of project]]. This allows the community to [http://andlabs.sonicretro.org/scans track] what scans have been completed and at what quality. This structure is as follows:
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''<nowiki>{{SystemBox|CC|quality=good}}</nowiki>'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Where "System" refers to the originating gaming system, CC refers to the two-letter country code (i.e., US, UK, EU, JP), and quality refers to the value of the image itself (i.e., does the scan have rips/blemishes, is it 300DPI or higher, etc.)
