The 'Shroom:Issue 216/The 'Shroom Spotlight
Hello, all you readers of The 'Shroom, and welcome to Spotlight. Spotlight is a community project which aims to fix up the articles on the wiki which have issues. These issues can range from poor writing, to a lack of images, to even just needing a credible source.
Get yourself a glass of limited edition Mario milk, because I have exciting news! As of this issue, I now have a co-manager to help out with the Spotlight, Technetium!
Hey everyone! I'm Technetium, a name you may recognize from past Spotlight editions. I love how the Spotlight helps to improve the wiki, so I'm grateful to have the opportunity to work on it! Though, it appears I've been...fished up? Well, I guess that makes me the Spotlight! ...Let's move on before I get too ahead of myself.
Things progressed pretty well last month! Power Flotzo (talk) created Air Fan and uploaded a new version of File:MPS Evil Woody.jpg, Apikachu68 (talk) added the elusive logo for Sei Young Animation Co., Ltd., and ThePowerPlayer (talk) elaborated on the glitches graphics during the battle with Sluggy the Unshaven (by the way, it's cool seeing that enemies interact with Sluggy correctly despite having no reason to). Unfortunately for List of WarioWare: D.I.Y. contests and Animal Friends, they were both left untouched.
And now onto this month's focuses:
| Article | Category | Focuses |
|---|---|---|
| March is Women's History Month, so it's the perfect time to be a hero and create this article. It shouldn't be too difficult either, given that its counterpart, Hero Quiz!, already has a page. | ||
| While this month marks the one-year anniversary of Princess Peach: Showtime!, we can't ignore the missing pieces from Peach's previous game. List the location of every Puzzle Piece to complete this jigsaw. | ||
| Call us Goomba because we don't understand mahjong very well. The article lacks a gameplay section entirely, leaving the game and its terminology unexplained. Go and add it so we may sometimes win the game. | ||
| The start of spring means the emergence of frogs, including the Pea Frogs. Try to stay on the beat and get a screenshot of one in-game. An image of an inflated Pea Frog would also be appreciated. | ||
| Professor E. Gadd is far too young for his brain to be this fuzzy! Help clear things up for him by uploading a higher quality screenshot. | ||
| This is one sort of a wish a genie can't fulfill, so we're relying on you. Is there any place where Taj is referred to as "Taj the Genie"? |
Now just before we leave you, we'd like to tell you about unimplemented proposals. There are currently 33 that need to be implemented, dating as far back as 2021, so think of this as a continuous Spotlight goal until they're all completed. Additionally, there are many unresolved discussions that we would love to see come to some sort of conclusion. Some might have already concluded and just need the template removed, others have been waiting for a response for years. There are also thousands of articles with unsourced foreign names. They are found within this category, so please help out and add sources for them. Lastly, there are thousands of files that are missing Aboutfile descriptions. Help make the wiki more accessible by adding some!
Thanks for tuning in to the newest edition of The 'Shroom Spotlight! Be sure to turn up next month, where we'll be reviewing the progress on the above focuses. If you have any questions or suggestions about this month's set of the article focuses, then please get in touch through the dedicated topic if you have a forum account. If not, then please contact us on either RHG's talk page or Technetium's talk page, but you are far more likely to get a quick response if you go through the forums. You are also welcome to make suggestions on what you think we could focus on in our next edition! Thank you, and good luck!
