== Cherbil appearance thing == | |||
In a way [[Cherbil]]s actually do look like bums (I hope I didn't sound rude there) if you look at them, they may'nt've been based off them but they do share a striking resemblance to bottoms. So maybe we shouldn't mention apparently and based off but maybe a resemblance will do I just hop it's not too inappropriate lol. {{User:The RPG Gamer/sig}} 15:43, 7 October 2016 (EDT) | |||

== Re: Userspace == | |||
Thanks for the notice! I have been looking for mainspace things to edit but can't really find any that I have the knowledge to edit properly, and most of the ones that 'need rewriting due to grammatical mistakes' were fixed quite a while ago. I'll try and edit my userspace a bit less, but I'll just add one more thing today. | |||

== Wrong Goomba and a question. == | |||
I noticed you changed the Super Mario Maker for 3DS article to remove the part about [[Goombrat]]s. What I don't think you knew is that the ones in Super Mario World style are called [[Galoomba]]s, not [[Goombrat]]s. It doesn't matter because it's gone anyway, though. Also, is it against the rules to take a userbox that someone else made without asking permission? --{{User:Luigi 64DD/sig}} 16:42, 15 October 2016 (EDT) | |||
Yeah, no Goombrats, because they weren't in SMM for Wii U. Thanks for answering my question! --{{User:Luigi 64DD/sig}} 17:05, 15 October 2016 (EDT) | |||
== Unofficial transparent images == | |||
Can you please give an example? | |||
That is unnecessary. | |||
You can consider uploading a different image (excluding the boomerang) and just crop it instead. | |||

== Black Bowser's Castle == | |||
Hi. Not sure where to post this. Though for PAPER MARIO COLOR SPLASH, they listed BLACK BOWSER CASTLE card under THINGS. It is not a THING card. It's an ENEMY card, that gets filed under ENEMY in the museum at end of game. Please modify this if you can. Thanks {{unsigned|Zzyzxroad}} | |||
== Edit Sniping == | |||
Just let a sysop decide the best course of action. It could be true that he didn't edit snipe but rather he just logged in within two minutes and thought you forgot to categorize. This happened to me recently. Also, [[MarioWiki:Admin noticeboard]] isn't a place to discuss as stated by the notice on the page. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 15:08, 18 October 2016 (EDT) | |||
:Of course. While he did edit snipped, I knew he was just trying to help. I didn't mind it much, so, though I know AfternoonLight has done it fairly frequently in the past, I don't think he deserves a block for snipping me. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:13, 18 October 2016 (EDT) | |||

== The Pauline artwork. == | |||
I'm not very handy with this since I just joined the wiki. Would you mind editing another artwork? I would assume a picture of Pauline's Smash brothers trophy. | |||
I really don't know how my artwork got here in the first place to be honest. I just put it online to show a friend, so how it got here? I donot know. | |||
I hope I'm not pressuring you, but I would appreciate it if you would add another artwork. | |||
Thank you. | |||

== SML2 "Tutorial Level" == | |||
Source? Because I had it listed as "Start" for a reason. <ref group="SML2start">Nintendo Power #43 [http://www.superluigibros.com/super-mario-land-2-nintendo-power-43]</ref><ref group="SML2start">"スタート", [[KC Deluxe]] vol. 19 page 1, </ref> - [[User:Reboot|Reboot]] ([[User talk:Reboot|talk]]) 20:35, 4 November 2016 (EDT) | |||
<references group="SML2start"/> | |||
No problem. I've been meaning to make changes to the SML2 page ([http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=User:Reboot/test&oldid=2074484 WIP]), but I want to fit in a playthrough first to fill out the enemy descriptions, and I haven't got round to that yet. | |||
Incidentally, the only - and I've looked - name for the overworld level opposite the Tree Zone I've found is from the Japanese guidebook that YoshiKong/Shokora pointed me to on [[Gallery talk:Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]: 展望台コース, Tenbō-dai kōsu (which appears to mean - according to Google Translate - "Lookout Course"). - [[User:Reboot|Reboot]] ([[User talk:Reboot|talk]]) 01:45, 5 November 2016 (EDT) | |||

Hi. I'm working on completing [[Super Mario 3D World]] 100%. I think I've beat Worlds [[World 1 (Super Mario 3D World)|1]] and [[World 2 (Super Mario 3D World)|2]], but I have a question. Do you need to get Gold Stars on [[The Adventures of Captain Toad]] levels? If so, how is it done? I started the level as every character and nothing happened. You've beat the game 100%, so can you help?<br> | |||
{{User:Ultimate Mr. L/sig}} 13:55, 20 November 2016 (EST) | |||
:Look at [[:File:WiiU screenshot TV 0145C.jpg|this screenshot]]. In the top-left is a Captain Toad course. It has a Gold Star. So our suspicions that they can't get Gold Stars is wrong. What do you make of this? | |||

I noticed a bunch of images show up in [[Special:UnusedFiles]] relating to [[Kirby]]. I checked that article and your edits match up with the images I found. Just so you know, removing the link to the image doesn't mean the image is deleted. Just be sure you tag unused images with {{tem|delete}} and also specify a reason it should be deleted (<nowiki>{{delete|[[:File:TheFile.png]]}}</nowiki> is what I usually do in this situation, like [[:File:Mariolandmp2.jpg]]). If I am wrong, I don't know what your plans are for those images. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 04:58, 30 November 2016 (EST) | |||

2. When I'm adding images, is it OK to add images off the internet as long as I give credit? Is it OK to put in public domain images? I've seen other more advanced users putting in images that belong to Nintendo on their profile. Whats up with that? | |||
3. How do people upgrade their rank? | |||

== | == Super Princess Peach enemies == | ||
I'm | I've ran into a slight dilemma, in the playthrough I'm watching, I see several enemies, but they aren't detailed in the game's glossary on the wiki page, and the player doesn't particularly dwell on them. I'm not sure if there's something in a game guide, or a Perry Block that says about these things. The ones I've encountered so far are some fire enemies that I've used in screenshots for Fury Volcano, some flaming tiki heads from the same world, a sand-creature in Wavy Beach and some icicle creatures in Gleam Glacier.

== | == Recent "Shadoo" reversion == | ||
Hey Alex. Some admins recently discussed the {{plainlink|1=[http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Shadoo&diff=prev&oldid=2115360 restoring]}} of that "unconfirmed" info. And it's in-fact an acceptable analysis derived from factual in-game info, which follows [[MarioWiki:Good writing|our policy]] on writing standards. Please see a full explanation [[Talk:Shadoo#On the "identity" section|here]]. | |||

== | == Edit-sniping. == | ||
Don't edit snipe when editing a page again. I was just about to fix [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Rickety_Race_(Donkey_Kong_Land_2)&curid=172573&diff=2117540&oldid=2038131 this] edit, but you beat me to it. Although it was an accident, I'm just warning you not to do it again. – [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 18:09, 11 January 2017 (EST) | |||
: | :No edit-sniping has occurred. There is no way that Alex95 could've known that you intended to fix a mistake by an anonymous user. Edit-sniping is when someone is doing a project, like extensive category work for example, and someone comes along midway through it and starts doing the same thing without consulting the original user. Anyone can fix poor edits. {{User|Yoshi876}} | ||

== Oxford Comma == | |||
While the Oxford Comma (as in, the final comma in a list of three or more items) can be used to clear up ambiguity in certain circumstances, it is mostly optional and even more confusing in some cases. There are few guides that strictly insist on separating every item in a list with a comma ([http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2011/06/29/oxford-comma-dropped-university-serial-comma_n_886932.html including Ofxord]). On a website such as this that is fairly loose with grammar technicalities, it isn't necessary. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 16:14, 19 January 2017 (EST) | |||
:I don't know if I can convince you otherwise (and frankly, plenty of more learned individuals have argued this point), but generally, it's not necessary. As I've been taught, most people will recognize that "eggs" and "bread" are two separate items, rather than one conglomerate item, as most people are familiar with the wheat product and the chicken byproduct. Honestly, I tend to use the Oxford Comma regularly myself, but I am well aware that both sides have a leg to stand on and both sides can cite their own style guides. Therefore, it shouldn't be necessary to force everyone to obey this rule, especially on a website that mostly cares about the basics of English grammar and not much else. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 16:32, 19 January 2017 (EST) | |||
::What you consider proper punctuation can be considered unnecessary or potentially misleading punctuation ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_comma#Ambiguity and there are examples] where it doesn't perfectly clear up any ambiguity). It's nothing more complicated than that. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 16:50, 19 January 2017 (EST) | |||
:::Why is this a thing. It's just one freaking comma I "missed". I'm not sure who invented this "grammar", but it's really unnecessary to edit that one ''tiny'' thing.

== Proposal == | |||
Hi. Proposals taking place on the actual proposals page should run only for one week (with the exception of writing guidelines). Also, the talk page proposal template doesn't belong there, unless it's taking place on a discussion page of an individual article. | |||
