[#1267]

I accidentally uploaded the image for the "Combat EXP Potion" instead of the "Close Combat Skill EXP Potion", so I was trying to upload the correct version under the same file name. However, when I try to do that, the wiki says "File extension ".gif" does not match the detected MIME type of the file (image/jpeg)." The original file is definitely a .gif, and I'm trying to replace it with a .gif, so I'm not sure why it's doing that. I tried changing the file name to ".jpeg" to see if it would fix it, but I got the same error.

Any way to fix this? (I'm wondering if it's just best to delete the file, then reupload...)

Here is the problematic image in question: File:Cash Shop Close Combat Skill EXP Potion.gif

The version from the Nexon page is a gif, probably why the original is a gif.

What is the replacement you're trying to upload, where is it from, how did you make/get the file?

This is the replacement: https://s3.amazonaws.com/nxcache_store/mabinogi/itemimages/449F538B271841C5AF4E84BA2CBC5274.gif

I got it directly from the source code of Mabi's Web Shop.

Oh, I see, that one is actually a jpeg that they renamed.

I would suggest deleting the old one to remove the same-type restriction on the new upload then.

How do I delete something? I got the impression that it was some kind of special admin privilege.

Oh right it's not a page so you can't mark it, will poke staff.
