*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.

::::::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.
