I am sorry but you are acting a bit creepy right now. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 22:30, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The 2026 FIFA World Cup, marketed as FIFA World Cup 26, will be the 23rd FIFA World Cup, the quadrennial international men's soccer championship contested by the national teams of the member associations of FIFA. The tournament will take place from June 11 to July 19, 2026. It will be jointly hosted by 16 cities in three North American countries; the main host country of matches is the United States, while Canada and Mexico will be the auxiliary hosts. The tournament will be the first to be hosted by three nations. I'm so proud of you!. JLStevenNgao (talk) 10:28, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I get it already! Please don’t talk to me. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 10:49, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Standards-compliant SVG Code

Thanks for filling in the Image generation field of CHE Mezzovico-Vira COA.svg!

Here's a quibble, however: when you use that field to advertise the fact that the SVG code you posted yourself has validation errors, there's something rather odd happening: you're drawing attention to the fact that as an SVG artist, you haven't done your job properly. Your job as an SVG artist, properly considered, includes the creation of error-free code.

Let's back up a little and contemplate the larger picture.

The internet is made up of many different systems that manage to work together despite the fact that they are different and work in many differrent ways. For such interoperability to happen at all, there need to be standards, meaning agreed-upon ways of doing things that everybody in a given industry supports.

The internet has many such standards, and one of them is the SVG Recommendation published by the Web's standards body, the W3C. The W3C is a bit bashful about calling its standards standards. It calls them recommendations instead. Regardless, they are standards.

Now, if all parties involved – software makers and SVG artists alike – do their bit and support the standard, things run smoothly and remain interoperable across the internet. If, however, either party disregards the standard, things may break unpredictably for some people, if not for others, so interoperability is gone and the internet becomes a less useful place.

This means that SVG artists on the internet have a responsibility to make sure the code they create and share complies with the SVG standard.

Happily, this isn't hard at all. When saving a file in an SVG editor, save the file in a format that suppresses the SVG editor's non-standard and proprietary elements, of which both Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator have plenty. Thus, when saving a file in Inkscape, save it as Optimized SVG rather than the default Inkscape SVG profile. Doing so will remove the non-standard elements that Inkscape otherwise drops into the code. It also removes any non-standard elements from Adobe Illustrator's own proprietary SVG profile that may have entered your codebase from a third party whose work you may be revising.

Prior to posting an SVG file saved in this manner, run it through the W3C Markup Validation Service. In most cases, the code will now pass muster.

If the W3C Validator still finds fault with a file saved in this manner, it will tell you what the lines are that it finds objectionable, and what's wrong with them.

In that case, open the non-validating file in your preferred text editor and fix the code manually.

This shouldn't involve a lot of effort either, as SVG is fairly straightforward.

In any event, posting clean code that complies with the SVG standard should be second nature for any SVG artist who takes responsibility for their work. Thanks! ARK (talk) 20:06, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I want to know which programmes will make the cleanup faster because it may took me a very long time to do cleanups. I want to find which programmes that can autoclean up the files right away. Basically, I want to make things faster for me. SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 20:44, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

As mentioned, saving a file in Inkscape as Optimised SVG rather than going with the default Inkscape SVG profile usually gives you clean code that passes the W3C's validator without any errors or warnings, even. You might also want to experiment with SVG optimisers such as SVGOptimizer.com. ARK (talk) 12:31, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations on your much improved SVG code in recent uploads!

There's one minor snag, though, that consistently keeps your code from not just validating without errors, but from validating without warnings, too. The warning "no character encoding declared at document level" is easily preventable simply by by keeping this line of code at the top of your SVG files:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

A file saved in Inkscape as Optimised SVG will include that line automatically, so you don't even have to do anything for your code to be squeaky-clean. ARK (talk) 06:45, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Mixed Canada/France flag

Hey, I saw your SVG version of the mixed Canada/France flag. Is it fine if I edit the colors of it to the current one and upload it? RobloxMiner$$ (talk) 03:52, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You can go ahead. Do the same with other French and Italian (and whatever outdated colour's of other country flags there may be) mixed flags too SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 03:53, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I tried but it keeps saying I can’t overwrite files I did not upload. RobloxMiner$$ (talk) 03:56, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Did you use Inkscape or something? SpinnerLaserzthe2nd (talk) 03:58, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, had to edit it on an iPad from another website called Boxy. RobloxMiner$$ (talk) 03:59, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Since I myself can’t change it I will link to where else I uploaded it: https://splatoonwiki.org/wiki/File:FlagCanadaFrance.svg RobloxMiner$$ (talk) 22:25, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Users without special privileges (e.g., autopatrolled) cannot overwrite files that other users uploaded. Glrx (talk) 16:57, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
