== | == Preview button == | ||
I | Try to avoid making too many edits to one page, especially your user page, as this can clutter the page's history and flood the [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]]. Use the "Show preview" button next to the save button to check your work and continue editing, then save when you are ready to publish the edit. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 16:52, 25 February 2019 (EST) | ||
: | :Oh...I didn't realize my user page edits show up there, too! I thought saving frequently would prevent a lot of work having to be redone if I accidentally exited out. I will try to reduce this problem. [[User:Obsessive Mario Fan|Obsessive Mario Fan]] ([[User talk:Obsessive Mario Fan|talk]]) 14:52, April 10, 2019 (EDT) | ||
:: | ::You can set the recent changes to only show certain namespaces (mainspace, userspace, files, etc.), but most people just keep it to the default everything as far as I know. | ||
::You can also edit pages in a Word document or something, you can save as many times as you want to there, and then carry over the text to your userpage when it's done. Downside there is you can't preview any wiki changes :P {{User:Alex95/sig}} 17:08, 25 February 2019 (EST) | |||
:::Well, you can preview your changes and don't save them. I do think the WikiEd addon lets you save backups of changes, but it takes extra to load all those buttons, so I don't use it myself. {{User:Bazooka Mario/sig}} 17:14, 25 February 2019 (EST) | |||

== | == Userpage == | ||
While getting to know you better is all well and good, you've been editing your userpage rather extensively over the past couple of days. Be sure to mix in some helpful edits as well! {{User:Alex95/sig}} 18:16, 27 February 2019 (EST) | |||
== | == Enemy Counts == | ||
I noticed you added enemy counts for NSMBW World 1-4 and some levels of Super Mario World. I'm currently endeavoring to compile accurate enemy counts for SMB 1-3, SMW, and the NSMB games. Please feel free to double check my counts and/or add counts to pages that are empty if you want to help me in this. {{User:Ladishchap}} | |||
I | :Enemy counts are one of the easier things to add, since I have access to a lot of level maps and videos. It's easier with levels that are more linear. Feel free to check any mistakes I make, too. :) [[User:Obsessive Mario Fan|Obsessive Mario Fan]] ([[User talk:Obsessive Mario Fan|talk]]) 16:26, April 23, 2019 (EDT) | ||

You don't need to add [[:Category:Game 3D renders]] to images, at that is automatically applied when you select the {{tem|game-3Drender}} template. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:54, May 3, 2019 (EDT) | |||

:Sorry about that! Your votes were actually not there when I added mine. They must have disappeared due to a conflict. You probably started editing after I did, but saved your changes before I did.

::Either way, a reminder was supposed to be given, not a warning. OMF, you should probably check twice a page before editing it. Or maybe even check what revision of the page you are editing, since it can happen as well. {{User:Tent2/sig}} 14:25, May 11, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:::You should appeal this warning anyways, as it was obviously an accident. A formal reminder instead of an actual reminder would be better, as you never done anything bad, and mistakes like this can happen. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 14:28, May 11, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:::Good point... it should be up to the admins. Sorry for my misunderstanding. {{User:HEROMARIO/sig}} 14:41, May 11, 2019 (EDT) | |||
User has apologized, and this is obviously a mistake, not one meant to cause trouble. This thing tends to happen when editing the whole page rather than a section, though, so maybe edit a specific section next time so the wiki alerts you when a conflict does happen in that spot. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 15:52, May 11, 2019 (EDT) | |||
== RE:My gripe about level articles on the wiki == | |||
It seemed to me that many level articles just lack a lot of content. Pages for ''[[Wario Land II]]'' (see [[Avoid the rocks!]]), ''[[Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker]]'' (see [[Multi-Vator Mayhem]]), ''[[Yoshi's Woolly World]]'' (see [[Lava Scarves and Red-Hot Blarggs]])... All of these have a lackluster introduction and a rushed layout section that skims over a couple of elements and doesn't go into any detail. Sometimes, these two sections are combined. They are not the worst of the wiki, though, because they at least contain information about important collectibles. By far the worst level articles pertain to ''[[Yoshi's New Island]]'', which fail even in that regard, practically making them a complete waste of Internet space that doesn't benefit anybody. Wanna know where to find that elusive [[Smiley Flower]] in whatever level? Wanna look up it quickly without loading some video on YouTube and then sliding the progress bar where it might show the collectible? Well, too bad, you're not having any of that. My criticism is meant to raise awareness to that very point--that a level article should at least contain information about things that might be desirable for the reader to know. Actually, that applies to any article. | |||
And yes... that means adding information about where to find the crafts and Poochy Pups in the [[Pirate Pier|most recent article you wrote]]. :P Just a little light criticism if you accept it... You're doing a good job otherwise. And an advice: if there is anything essential in a level, just anything that pretty much defines it in some way, you can write about it briefly in the introduction paragraph! For example, [[Shoal Atoll|this level]] from ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' has you find different keys in order to open chests, which is mentioned at the beginning of its page. {{User:Bye Guy/Sig}} 17:35, May 18, 2019 (EDT) | |||
: | :Thanks for the info! Also, I usually work on large projects in my [[User:Obsessive Mario Fan/Sandbox|sandbox]], mostly edits that I don't think I can do in one sitting. [[User:Obsessive Mario Fan|Obsessive Mario Fan]] ([[User talk:Obsessive Mario Fan|talk]]) 18:28, May 18, 2019 (EDT) | ||

== | == Categories == | ||
Hi, would you mind changing every instance of <code><nowiki>[[Category:Super Mario Land Levels]]</nowiki></code> to <code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>''':'''<nowiki>Category:Super Mario Land Levels]]</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>[[Category:Yoshi's Crafted World Worlds]]</nowiki></code> to <code><nowiki>[[</nowiki>''':'''<nowiki>Category:Yoshi's Crafted World Worlds]]</nowiki></code>? We don't usually allow userspace pages in mainstream categories. Thanks! {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 18:14, May 20, 2019 (EDT) | |||

== | == Game titles == | ||
Keep in mind that game titles still need to be ''italicised'' even in [[Special:Diff/2674881|section headers]]. Other than that, thanks for your work on the ''Mario Land'' levels! {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:17, May 25, 2019 (EDT) | |||

== I' | =="Vandalism"== | ||
[https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Waddlewing%27s_Nest&diff=prev&oldid=2675709 This] is actually true, as the way it was worded made it talk about the hidden wall where the P Switch is (on the left) then the hidden wall with the Star Coin. You should not automatically flag edits as vandalism and should see if they are true or not first. Even if the user's edit was false, it was so minor and the user was new enough that it should be assumed that an edit like that would be a mistake. Thanks for your understanding. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 09:13, May 26, 2019 (EDT) | |||
:Thanks for letting me know. I thought it seemed like vandalism, but we'll have to see what the user does next to know for sure. [[User:Obsessive Mario Fan|Obsessive Mario Fan]] ([[User talk:Obsessive Mario Fan|talk]]) 09:15, May 26, 2019 (EDT) | |||
[[ | ==Thanks! (Re:Yarrctopus)== | ||
: | Thanks, I mean it. We can work on some articles together when we have some time, if you want - I know you are busy and all. I can upload any image from my computer. You can handle all the ''[[Super Mario Land (series)|Super Mario Land]]'' levels and ''[[Wario: Master of Disguise]]'' levels, as I don't have any games like that. You can also work on the first few levels of ''[[Yoshi's Crafted World]]'', as I see you have made progress on quite a few of those. I would like to have some info on a few of the enemies and mini-bosses, but I have just started the game, so it could take me a while. Likewise, you have started on [[Checkpoint Bell]] and [[Winged Timer Cloud]], so you're good with those. If there is anything you want from me or want me to do, just let me know. --[[User:WigglyWiggler|WigglyWiggler]] ([[User talk:WigglyWiggler|talk]]) 14:40, June 9, 2019 (EDT) | ||

== | == Re: Not making conjectural articles == | ||
It's specifically for the Shy Guys and Ukirilla. Regarding the Ukirillas, i feel they should all be covered in one article, given that they are all separate individuals, and if they aren't, if they get merged, their page may risk deletion. Regarding the Shy Guys, we do have articles for some of the new variants, which are official names. However, some of them are not named, so if they turn out to be just normal Shy Guys with multiple behaviors, they may be deleted if they get merged. For the tinfoil Mel, which i didn't mention, same, it's best to cover it on the Mel article until we have an official name for it. Is there any Prima guide, and/or Shogakugan guide? --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 13:16, June 11, 2019 (EDT) | |||
: | :[[Prima Games]] was discontinued due to a large decline in strategy guide sales, so I doubt there will be a guide from them. I don't know if there is or will be a Shogakugan guide.

== Re:Profiles from digital manuals == | |||
Hey, thanks for noticing all the work I put into contributing the digital manual information! Honestly, I kind of just do whatever I can find that I have access to, since the 3DS I'm using to get the info isn't my own. I'm fortunate that my brother had access to all the Ambassador Program titles, as I'm sure there's a great deal of a bit more obscure information in them in terms of official names (including in other languages) due to their limited nature. A big prioity of mine is trying to add more bios and descriptions and the like, as that kind of information isn't used too much. I've even tried my hand at helping other NIWA wikis with what titles I have access to. | |||
I | Anyway, things I plan on trying to find from digital manuals include WarioWare Gold, Luigi's Mansion, Mario Kart 7, New Super Mario Bros 2, and possibly more if I can get my hands on some things. I also recently found a bunch of old GameCube boxes with the manuals still in tact so I may try to lend a hand in that regard as well.--{{User:UltraMario3000/sig}} | ||
:I | :I added descriptions from the digital manuals for Mario Kart 7 and New Super Mario Bros 2. I also am adding bios from websites for games. Currently, I am mainly focusing on older websites such as ones for 3DS games and the remaining Wii U game sites, because I know they are closer to being taken down by Nintendo. {{User:Obsessive Mario Fan/sig}} 15:38, June 17, 2019 (EDT) |
