Hello, readers! I'm your Spotlight manager and Pipe Plaza Director, Yoshi876. Welcome to Retro Feature, a section in which I delve deep into the archives to bring you the best blasts from the past. This time I bring you a section from a previous Editor-in-Chief, Beanbean (talk), and for the first time since I started writing this section, it isn’t her first one!
Beanbean joined the MarioWiki on 12th February 2007. Beanbean made her 'Shroom debut during Issue VII in the main team. Beanbean’s first section was Mario Knowledge a section that had never been featured in The ‘Shroom before, she originally wrote this section with Superchao (talk), however this was only for the first section. She wrote the second section solo, and the third one with Xluidi (talk). Beanbean would write Mario Knowledge a further two times. She would go on to contribute two further sections for the Main Team, both being special sections, and she also submitted a section for Fun Stuff. As well as being a contributor to The 'Shroom, in Issue X, Beanbean became the Editor-in-Chief, although this was only for this issue.
However, you’re not here to learn about the history of Beanbean, you’re here to a view a classic section from issues gone by, so without further ado here is Beanbean’s Trivia section from Issue X.

Hey, this is Beanbean (talk), giving you the ‘Shroom Issue X’s trivia about the Marioverse! Ready? Let’s start!

One scene where everyone on the Doomship is dancing in “Do the Koopa” includes many mistakes: Big Mouth dancing but his feet never touch the ground, Hop’s hair appears yellow, Kooky’s whole face is orange, Hip’s hair is blue, and Hop is dancing next to Cheatsy in two of the shots while in the one following he is seen dancing next to his twin brother.
