==Super Mario Encyclopedia==
For future reference, we can't cite Super Mario Encyclopedia (the english translation) due to having names originating from the wiki, such as Soarin' Stu. It originates from the wiki. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 03:19, 28 December 2018 (EST)

:They weren't citing them, they were mentioning the SMBE naming controversy on the subject pages, which should stay on the [[Super Mario Bros. Encyclopedia]] and [[List of Mario-related controversies]] pages. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 03:29, 28 December 2018 (EST)

== Categories ==

{{imagecategory-reminder}}
Your recent uploads were missing the proper categories. Please replace the {{tem|uncategorized}} template with the proper category, as shown above. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:34, 15 January 2019 (EST)

== Moving files ==

You can simply move the file to the lowercase .png extension yourself by clicking the "move" tab at the top of the page. No need to [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=File:Mario_vs_Iggy_Koopa.PNG&diff=prev&oldid=2582097 tag] it with {{tem|move}}. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:03, 16 January 2019 (EST)

:Also, after moving a file, please make sure that any pages that still link to the old name (by going to [[Special:WhatLinksHere]] on the old name redirect page, found under "tools" on the left navigation pane) are edited to link to the new name, and that the old name is then marked for deletion. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:44, 20 January 2019 (EST)
::You've been forgetting this again. Please remember to fix the page links, otherwise you'll start seeing reminders. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:06, 28 January 2019 (EST)

== Italics ==

Please also remember to [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style#Italicizing titles|''italicise'' game titles]]. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 02:37, 17 January 2019 (EST)

Please remember this; you were [[Special:Diff/2595431|missing them]] in your [[Flare Ball|recent article]]. See the [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] for more information. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 05:51, 2 February 2019 (EST)

== Sprites ==

For future reference, never, ever, ever, ever, ever save a sprite as a .jpg. That absolutely destroys sprites. Save as a .png.

Furthermore, please upload singular sprites, not full sheets, and do so at their actual size. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 01:55, 19 January 2019 (EST)

== JPG to PNG ==

When a file is asking for a PNG replacement, it doesn't mean "upload the JPG as a PNG". That is against [[MarioWiki:Image use policy|policy]], and the ''Wario World'' images you uploaded showed no signs of improvement in any way.

When you ''do'' upload a valid image, the links to the old image need to be replaced, as Mario jc reminded you above. This applies to both moved images and replacement images. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:50, 20 January 2019 (EST)

==Aboutfile==
{{aboutfile-reminder}}
Hello, regarding your [https://www.mariowiki.com/Special:ListFiles/Doomdorm64 recent uploads] while you have uploaded images with a properly added {{tem|aboutfile}} template in the past you seem to be forgetting to add the {{tem|aboutfile}} template to your uploads as of 15:17, 19 January 2019 with [[:File:Sea Cactus 1.png|this image]]. A reminder of how to do this is listed above this comment. Thanks for your understanding. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 11:09, 21 January 2019 (EST)

==Summary==
For future reference, when uploading images <nowiki>==Summary==</nowiki> is automatically added to the image, so adding it before the image is uploaded will result in two <nowiki>==Summary==</nowiki> headers being on the image. Thanks for your understanding. {{User:Doomhiker/sig}} 9:33 January 27 2019 (EST)

== Image quality ==
The ''Wario World'' images you are uploading are rather low quality. Where are you getting them? Is there a chance you can find/capture better quality images? {{User:Alex95/sig}} 12:49, 12 February 2019 (EST)
:The same applies to your ''Super Mario Galaxy'' (''2'') images, like [[:File:SMG2 Melty Monster Magmaw Planet.png|this]], [[:File:Glamdozer Lava Sprouts.png|this]], and [[:File:SMG BJAA Bowswer Jr Star Bits.jpg|this]]. [[User:Scrooge200|Scrooge200]] ([[User talk:Scrooge200|talk]]) 13:13, 12 February 2019 (EST)

In regards to the ''Super Mario Galaxy'' images you've uploaded meaning to replace the files that are already there, they weren't of any better quality. The images you uploaded are incredibly blurry, while the originals are clearer. Please compare the images before replacing them, thanks. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:20, March 19, 2019 (EDT)

I agree with {{user|Alex95}}, but in general. Make sure to tag [[Special:ListFiles/{{BASEPAGENAME}}|your uploads]] with {{tem|image-quality}} or give [[User:Wildgoosespeeder/sandbox|my guide to better quality screenshots]] a try. --{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 11:13, April 17, 2019 (EDT)

== Reminder ==

{{reminder|2=forgetting to fix page links after moving a page}}
You have been told over and over again that when you move a page or file, '''you need to fix the links so they point to the new name'''. Click the "What links here" button on the left while on the old name's page to get a list, then fix them. Additionally, when citing sources, you need to add a "references" section with the <nowiki><references/></nowiki> markup underneath it ([https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Button_(Wario_World)&diff=2605402&oldid=2605400 like this]). {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 01:40, 17 February 2019 (EST)

== Redirects ==

Hi, regarding your creation of redirects, don't create them unless they're alternate names used in official venues, are a widely common fan name used for the subject, or are otherwise a common alternate name originating from the wiki's olden days or otherwise. I'm referring specifically to examples like your redirecting of [[Battlestation Galaxy]] to [[Dreadnought Galaxy]] (not to mention that in this case it would cause confusion with [[Battlerock Galaxy]]). Please keep this in mind, otherwise you may see a reminder or even a warning. Thanks! {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 05:18, 10 March 2019 (EDT)

== New stub articles ==

{{new stub-reason}}
Specifically Veggie Patch, Spooky Woods, Snowful Slope and Forest Ruins. Please try to put as much information as possible in your articles when creating them next time. (My suggestion would be a more detailed layout section.) Also, try to avoid unnecessary padding to make the article appear longer than it needs to be (the '''bolded''' parts here: ''"Snowful Slope is the second level of '''the world''' [[Chill 'n' Char Island]] '''where [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]] and [[Diddy Kong]] venture through''' in '''the game''' [[DK: Jungle Climber]]."''). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 04:33, April 12, 2019 (EDT)

== Minor edits ==

Edits like [[Special:Diff/2651527|this]] (adding notice templates), especially when making a flood of them, should be marked as [[Help:Editing#Minor edits|minor]], as they can be filtered out when users manage through the [[Special:RecentChanges|recent changes]]. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 20:52, April 26, 2019 (EDT)

== Shake King's Residence ==

I see the talk page for [[Shake King's Residence]], but is the name really not used anywhere? Looks like the page has existed for a while. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 19:28, May 11, 2019 (EDT)

== Conjectural pre-release articles ==

[[Magma Bro|Please do not make pages like this]]. If we don't even have an official name for an entity in a game that isn't out yet, this can lead to all sorts of issues. That used to be done often (ie Mandibug has an article called "Spacebug" before SMG came out) but when we'll obviously be getting an official name soon, this is just making a bunch of extra needless work. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 02:16, May 16, 2019 (EDT)

== [[:File:SMG Torpedo Blaster.jpg]] and [[:File:SMG Banzai Blaster.jpg]] ==

In which video specifically you found these images? Be more specific rather than just writting "YouTube". --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 12:17, July 2, 2019 (EDT)

== YouTube screenshot ==

When you make a YouTube screenshot for a game footage, you don't need to make it a jpg, just make it a png. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 08:57, July 7, 2019 (EDT)

== Images for the SMG2 article ==

Hey, if you wouldn't mind, could you hold off for a few days on uploading new images for the enemies, objects, etc linked on the galleries on the [[Super Mario Galaxy 2]] page? I [[User talk:Supermariofan67/Sandbox2|am currently in the middle of a project]] to add high-quality emulator screenshots for all of these items, and it sort of messes up my organization and makes it more difficult to keep track of what I need to do. Thanks! <s>Also, it is preferred to use artwork to represent the objects on the game pages, so I don't understand why you replaced the Urchin and Undergrunt Gunner images there.</s> (Nevermind, I understand the those ones because they are visually distinct.) --{{User:Supermariofan67/sig}} 14:05, July 12, 2019 (EDT)

==Fawful Guy==
Hey. Just wanted to tell you that there already is an image of the Bowser Jr's Journey Fawful Guy that already exists in the [[Gallery:Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey|MLBISBJJ gallery]]: [[File:MLBISBJJFawfulGuy2.png]]<br>
{{User:MadBird82/sig}} 13:03, July 16, 2019 (EDT)

== SMB environmental palettes ==

Hi, do each of those you just uploaded actually show up in the game (ie Minus World or Lost Levels)? If not, they should be deleted, as they are misleading in that case. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 04:59, August 4, 2019 (EDT)

== Aboutfiles and galleries ==

FYI, we don't use that kind of wording: "Mario finds a chest", we use this kind of wording: "Mario finding a chest". For example, a treasure chest, or a chest full of bubbles, as in [[Dire Dire Docks]]. --{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}} 06:37, August 5, 2019 (EDT)

:Both are equally acceptable. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:44, August 5, 2019 (EDT)

== Super Mario Bros. 5-8 ==

I don't recall any of the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' games being called "Super Mario Bros. 5-8". Those aren't even common terms. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 12:14, August 6, 2019 (EDT)

== Category linking ==

Hey, I noticed you were working on a project in the sandbox and linking to categories. Just so you know, categories can actually be linked to using regular links <nowiki>[[:Category:Whatever it's called|like this]]</nowiki>. Hope this helps! --{{User:Waluigi Time/sig}} 15:23, August 20, 2019 (EDT)

==Wario World (Trig)==
I am currently in contact with some people about whether or not we can extract model data for treasures and bosses. If we cannot, please allow me to update [[List of treasures in Wario World|the treasure page]]. Was not sure if you were going to try and get those are not with the wario world kick you are on. [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 12:19, August 31, 2019 (EDT)

== Transparency ==

Just get Paint.net. It's a free, open-source program that's capabilities are somewhere between MS Paint and Photoshop. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 14:40, October 5, 2019 (EDT)

:Also if the sprite sheet doesn't have a transparent background, just use the magic wand to select it (use 0% for one pixel color) and press the delete key. --[[User:Pasta937|Pasta937]] ([[User talk:Pasta937|talk]]) 21:21, October 5, 2019 (EDT)
::As an additional notice, I'm pretty sure those smaller, orange-using sprites on TSR for the Sharp one are the _hypothetical_ ones if they were at the same size as the other versions. I request you go back through and replace them with the later ones that use the dotted red and yellow, as those are the actual ones to show up last I checked. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 21:55, October 5, 2019 (EDT)

== Second reminder ==

{{reminder|2=creating redirects for seemingly the sake of creating them|overturned=yes}}
I'm referring specifically to [[Synchro Battle Galaxy|this]]. Please see [[#Redirects|my message above]] concerning the creation of redirects on the wiki, or else a warning will be issued. Thanks! {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 09:36, December 8, 2019 (EST)
:One, the redirect was legit &ndash; they simply confused Sky Station Galaxy with Good Egg Galaxy. Two, it's generally considered common courtesy to give another ''informal'' reminder under the original message if the original message was given a while ago. I strongly suggest [[MarioWiki:Appeals|appealing]] this. {{User:TheDarkStar/sig}} 14:31, December 8, 2019 (EST)
::I don't understand this reminder. Overturned. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 12:27, December 9, 2019 (EST)

== Birdo (Yellow) MKT tricks ==

You were the one that uploaded the pics for Birdo (Yellow)'s tricks for ''Mario Kart Tour'', right? I'm glad that you contributed to the Trick pics for that game, but the way the pics look are a bit off. Here's what I usually do when I take these:
*I use the 50cc setting so it can be much easier for me to take the photo.
*I screenshot the trick at the right time (no one in the way, when they're not spinning, etc.) and crop it just right.
*I use [https://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-png this] site to convert my pics to .png's, and I use the "best quality (lossless compression)" option for the quality.

If you could follow those steps so the pic could look higher quality, not to mention bigger, you'll be alright. [[User:SonicSpeed48|SonicSpeed48]] ([[User talk:SonicSpeed48|talk]]) 15:29, April 21, 2020 (EDT)

== ''Super Mario 3D World'' level table ==

Hi, I understand your desire to fix the level table in the ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' article, but the article would do better with close-up screenshots of level icons (you know, the miniature icons found on the world map) instead of screenshots of the levels themselves. Thanks! {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 07:48, May 1, 2020 (EDT)

== Candy ==

Y'know, I was thinking earlier this morning how we needed images of the ''MP8'' candy transformations, but I didn't have a way to do that myself. So congrats on reading my mind :P {{User:Alex95/sig}} 14:17, May 17, 2020 (EDT)

== jpg-png ==

If there's clear proof it's a png converted from a jpg, just mark it for deletion. jpg-converted pngs are not allowed. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 22:20, June 17, 2020 (EDT)

== Pepper ==

The image I uploaded had worse quality, but it showed the pepper better. Meanwhile, the image you linked had better quality, but it showed less pepper. (It was also hard to distinguish the pepper from the tounge.) {{User:DarkNight/sig}} 15:29, August 17, 2020 (EDT)

== Paper Mario: The Origami King stats ==

Apparently to get the enemy stats, someone needs to hack into the game's files. It's possible that hasn't been done yet, and usually seems to take quite a while. The game has only been out for one month too. So you should probably cool it with the rewrite-expand notices for now. {{User:Keyblade Master/sig}} 06:28, August 19, 2020 (EDT)

== YTT Boo sprite ==

Hi there. Just letting you know that there are two separate sized Boos at [[Yoshi Topsy-Turvy#Enemies]]. The [[:File:YTT - Boo Sprite.png|small version]] you replaced is a unique enemy, and the larger version already exists at [[:File:YTT Big Boo.png]].

{{User:Shokora/sig}} 05:02, September 19, 2020 (EDT)

== Dr. Mario World World Screenshot ==

I noticed that whenever you upload a screenshot that you have taken from Youtube, it's in PNG form. Unless you are planning to upload a clearer version of the screenshot yourself at a later time, could you please upload them in JPG? This is because the screenshot function in phones tend to be in JPG format, therefore it's more convenient as I don't have to save it as PNG (which would also make the screenshot bloat in size). [[User:Winstein|Winstein]] ([[User talk:Winstein|talk]]) 09:29, December 13, 2020 (EST)

== "Frosteor" ==

I moved that "Frosteor" page you created to [[ice crystal]]. [[MarioWiki:Naming#Conjectural names|Conjectural names should be simple, yet accurate]]. "Frosteor" is neither simple (it's an awkward portmanteau) nor accurate (they're not meteors, so the name doesn't fit, even if they're an icy counterpart to the lava pool-making meteors found in the same level). Also, conjectural names must be treated as such; on the [[meteor]] article [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Meteor&diff=3241783&oldid=3241750 you wrote] "Distantly related objects called Frosteors also appear in the Shiverburn Galaxy" as if "Frosteor" was an official name.

On an unrelated note, don't use the word "strangely" in wiki articles. Strangeness is subjective. {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 17:54, July 24, 2021 (EDT)

== Swimming Goombas ==
Back in 2020, you have added this bit of information to the [[Goomba]] article: "Goombas cannot swim and drown instantly when they touch water." What is the source for that? {{User:LadySophie17/sig}} 15:53, February 14, 2025 (EST)
