| == Appearance ==
| |
| | |
| For one, the edit itself wasn't vandalism. Just a little weird. The odd aspect of it was removed and implemented properly, so there's nothing wrong with the Appearance section. Now, it could probably be incorporated into the opening paragraph, as I think there isn't much to the appearance, but the information itself isn't vandalism. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:50, November 30, 2020 (EST)
| |
| : Thanks Alex95. The user who started the appearance section was vandalism, and I thought the whole section was vandalism. However, you caught me there by saying a person reduces the vandal in that section. You caught me on this one. [[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 15:57, November 30, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::I would just like to add that I think an appearance section could still be worthwhile. There's more that can be said about it, such as how its head colours are different from Dino Piranha's, its feet, its curly red tail bob thingy when you break open its shell, potentially even the egg's design itself. However, it's fine for now, and it won't be necessary to add the appearance section until I or someone add this extra information.

| |
| :They were not. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 22:49, December 1, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::From "Boos" to "The Big Boo" it was not vandal, but saying "uhhhhhh" might be foolish to me. I agree with Alex95. Thank you both DarkNight and Alex95 for your coming to talk. [[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 08:48, December 2, 2020 (EST)
| |
| :::As I said on Darknight's talk page, "The Big Boo" is what Boos were referred to in Super Mario RPG, because of weird translations. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}}
| |
| ::::Then we should respect the annoymouse user's "The Big Boo" words. It's just fine. Can every agree here? [[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 08:55, December 2, 2020 (EST)

| == A few things about your edits ==
| |
| | |
| I've noticed a lot of problems with your edits, and I want to go over some and expand on why they are a problem. I also would like you to reread the messages you have here on your talk page.
| |
| | |
| *First of all, you seem to be very misunderstanding how proposals work. I explained some things [[Talk:PictoChat#Comments|here]], but even with that, you still did not expand on the proposal properly. Similar case [[Talk:Lucky_Space#Split_Mario_Party_8_into_its_own_article|here]] and your comment at the bottom [[Talk:Wing_Cap#Comments|here]] tell me you really need to give [[MarioWiki:Proposals]] a proper reading before you do anything further with proposals.
| |
| *You cannot tell people to not remove your edits, as you did [[Special:Diff/3050306|here]] and [[Special:Diff/3055502|here]]. Doing so defeats the very purpose of the wiki. You do not have the authority to keep edits as they are.
| |
| *Related to that, if [[Special:Diff/3077924|an admin says something should stay]], you talk to them instead of undoing it yourself. This is undermining admin authority.
| |
| *In regards to vandalism efforts, while I'm glad you're trying to help, you are having some missteps in how to handle it. A comment like [[Special:Diff/3076217|this]] does nothing, vandals will not care. The hidden comments are usually meant to provide notes to actual editors. [[Special:Diff/3080526|This is not vandalism]] (and the edit is another instance of ignoring admin authority), and [[User talk:104.194.220.20|trying to convey with vandals]] doesn't really work, either. Just revert and let an admin know, either by their talk page or through [[MarioWiki:Staff noticeboard]]. You should also give [[MarioWiki:Vandalism]] a read, it will explain more on what to look for.
| |
| *[[User_talk:5.173.24.213|Grammarly does not help]] because it can't make the distinction between fiction and reality and will sometimes even conflict with [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style|our Manual of Style]].
| |
| | |
| I notice you have a hard time explaining yourself, but I can't tell if you're even making an effort to improve on it. Please ask for help if you aren't sure what to do, and don't start things if you're not sure how to do them. I'm not saying you should stop editing altogether, and I understand there are a lot of things to keep in mind, but there's a lot of improvement that needs to happen on your part.
| |
| | |
| Thanks for reading, and keep editing. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 16:25, December 6, 2020 (EST)
| |
| : Thanks. Please try to help in all of my future so that I can strive. [[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 17:03, December 6, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::I know that Alex already low-key mentioned this when dealing with a user I blocked, but you need to stop [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=User_talk:47.187.196.82&diff=3082732&oldid=3082722 inserting yourself in situations where another user is getting reprimanded.] It violates our [[MarioWiki:Courtesy|courtesy]] policy. {{User:Ray Trace/sig}} 15:00, December 8, 2020 (EST)

| == [[Art Practice]] ==
| |
| | |
| Can I ask how you got the gameplay information? {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:29, December 10, 2020 (EST)
| |
| : Hi. Did I get something wrong? I do not know if any websites list them. Thanks so much for asking. If anyone has the actual gameplay, then that is helpful. [[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 14:08, December 11, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::He is asking where you got the gameplay information, not if it was wrong. {{User:DarkNight/sig}} 14:12, December 11, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::: Thanks DarkNight. [[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 14:13, December 11, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::::That didn't answer anything... {{User:Alex95/sig}} 16:05, December 11, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::::: Alex95 I was asking for help on the gameplay. [[User:Benjaminkirsc|Benjaminkirsc]] ([[User talk:Benjaminkirsc|talk]]) 16:23, December 11, 2020 (EST)
| |
| ::::::Please answer the question. Where did you get gameplay information from? {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 18:47, December 11, 2020 (EST)
| |
| | |
| Admins have decided to delete the article because judging by your first response, it's led us to believe that you simply wrote the gameplay information based on the picture. If that's the case, please don't do this again; you should base your information on actual gameplay footage. It's also been nearly a week and we haven't received a response to my last question even after you responded to Alex's post below which was posted later. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:48, December 16, 2020 (EST)

| | |
| == Proposals ==
| |
| | |
| Letting you know [[Talk:PictoChat#Proposal_about_removing_mentions_about_PictoChat_service|the PictoChat proposal]] has been canceled per admin input. Since this is your second proposal to be canceled, after [[Talk:Castle_(WarioWare,_Inc.:_Mega_Microgame$!)#Take_Two:_Merge_Castle_(WarioWare,_Inc.:_Mega_Microgame$!)_with_Diamond_Dojo_and_Diamond_City_Castle|the one on Castle (''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!'')]], I feel like I should give you some advice on how to manage them.
| |
| | |
| *Don't rush into things. Regarding the Castle page, you made a proposal when the proposed action from the previous proposal could already be enacted. For PictoChat, the conversation before it didn't finish and there didn't seem to be any real need for a proposal.
| |
| *Expand on your points. When people ask you for more information, you tend to respond with "But what did I do wrong?" or "Sorry, my bad!" or something similar. These are unhelpful. They are asking for information, not excuses. You may know what you are going for, but you need to make it clear what your points are so everyone else knows what you are going for. (This isn't only in reference to proposals, you've done this with Mario jc's question above, as an example.)
| |
| *Ask for help. Given your previous two attempts, you don't seem to be ready to manage a proposal yet. Take a look at previous proposals and see what goes into them, the points they make, and how people respond to them. If you're not sure what needs to be done or if you need help with the proposal itself, please ask someone to help you.
