The 'Shroom:Issue LXXXVII/Pipe Plaza

Co-Director's Notes (Yoshi876 (talk)) Hello readers. Not much to announce other than Driftmaster130 (talk) is currently on hiatus so Community Report will not be featured in the paper for a bit. It’s predicted that it should be back for the August issue so if anyone wants to write it as a guest section next month, feel free to volunteer. Section of the Month (Paper Yoshi (talk)) And so it's time to see which was the best section from the May Issue! I'm Paper Yoshi (talk), your favorite beloved Co-Director, and now it's my turn to announce May's Section of the Month! Last month's poll got only 10 votes, so I urge you to choose your favorite section in this issue! The May Sections of the Month, with 4 votes (40% of the total), are… Featured and Tip of the Month, once again tying for first place!! Featured, written by fellow Co-Director Yoshi876 (talk), is all about the Featured Article process, showing information such as which articles were featured during the previous month or the ongoing FA Nominations and Unfeaturing Nominations. Tip of the Month, written by long-time Pipe Plaza writer Funky38 (talk), presents readers with a tip each month to help them on their Mario Wiki endeavours. Community Report, written by Driftmaster130 (talk), was the runner-up, with 2 votes (20%). Well, that's all for now, folks!! See you in July!!! Monthly Report (Paper Yoshi (talk)) Hi, everyone, and welcome to the June Issue of Monthly Report!! As with the previous issue, I have no news on this section, so it's time to see the wiki statistics from March, April and May, along with comparisons between those sets of stats, as always. (Credit goes to Stooben Rooben (talk) and Super Mario Bros. (talk) for the table coding. Stooben originally created it when writing this section back in Issues XXIII, XXV and XXVI, and SMB based his coding for Issues XXXIX, XL and XLI – which I am using in this issue – off of Stooben's coding.)

Featured (Yoshi876 (talk)) Hello, Shroom readers, and welcome to Featured. E3 has come and gone, which obviously means more articles to potentially feature here as time goes by, but let’s hope not anytime soon so we don’t them in the failure section. Featured Articles One new articles has been featured in the past month. Vivian was featured on May 20th. Re-Featured Articles No new articles have become refeatured. FA Nominations There are three ongoing Featured Article Nominations. White Mage was nominated on April 26th. Comet Observatory was nominated on May 3rd. Mona was nominated on June 16. Failed FA Nominations Three new article have failed the featuring process. Toad failed on May 19th. It failed because it had flowery writing, it was padded and the relationships section had some speculation in it. Blooper failed on June 3rd. It failed due to numerous one-liner sections and a section stub. Super Mario 3D World failed on June 17th. It failed due to tables fluffing the article. Unfeatured Articles One new article has become unfeatured. Super Mario Galaxy became unfeatured on June 10th. It was unfeatured because the plot section was too long; the controls section was poorly laid out, as well as having irrelevant information, the galaxies section was also poorly laid out; the same problem was also present in the items section. Unfeaturing Nominations There are no ongoing Unfeature nominations. Failed Unfeaturing Nominations Two new articles has failed the unfeaturing process. Mario Kart: Super Circuit was cancelled on May 23rd. Culex failed on June 1st. Thanks for reading see you next month, for more Featured Articles news. Tip of the Month (FunkyK38 (talk)) As E3 draws to a close, be sure to always confirm your source when adding to articles for upcoming games. A direct quote from Nintendo is a good source; an ad on Facebook is probably not.
