== Image reuploads ==

Uploading a new version of an image can be glitchy. Press Ctrl+F5 to refresh your browser and have the most recent image show up. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:04, 30 August 2018 (EDT)
:You're welcome! <small><small><small>Now to delete all those image revisions.</small></small></small> {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:09, 30 August 2018 (EDT)

Additionally, when you move images, be sure to correct the links that lead to it. You can find these links by clicking the "What links here" tool on the sidebar while on the page. The file redirect should also be marked for deletion. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:20, 30 August 2018 (EDT)

Sure, I'd just prefer if the file-naming standard of the project was followed. And try to make them distinct. If I have them in a specific pose (such as the open-mouthed Hootie and Dangling Ghost), I'd like if that were still in the image, as it shows more of the enemy than otherwise.

{{sigbox-raw|--[[File:SMW2yoshi.gif]] [[User:FanOfYoshi|FanOfYoshi]] [[ User talk:FanOfYoshi|Talk]] [https://www.mariowiki.com/Special:Contributions/FanOfYoshi Contribs]}}
Hello. Just letting you know that your signature currently violates a few rules outlined in [[MarioWiki:Signatures]]:
*Your signature is too long. It should be shortened to fit in the box above.
*Your signature should include your username, or a variation/nickname that lets others know it's you (just "Yoshi" isn't very recognisable).
*You're adding your signature as raw code. Now that you're autoconfirmed, you should copy/paste your signature code to a signature subpage ([[User:FanOfYoshi/sig]]), then change your [[Special:Preferences|preferences]] accordingly (in the text field under "'''Signature'''", type in <nowiki>{{SUBST:nosubst|User:FanOfYoshi/sig}}</nowiki>, tick the "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)" check box below it, then hit save; your signature then appears as <code><nowiki>{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}}</nowiki></code> plus the timestamp when you sign with <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> instead of the entire code (the individual Yoshi GIF, contributions URL etc.))
More information can be found on the signatures policy page I linked. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:02, 1 September 2018 (EDT)
:Yep, looks good. Just copy/paste that to your signature page and change your preferences. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:08, 1 September 2018 (EDT)

::You're still signing with [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Talk:Giant_Raven&diff=prev&oldid=2496947 raw code]. Did you add <nowiki>{{SUBST:nosubst|User:FanOfYoshi/sig}}</nowiki> to the text field and tick the checkbox in your signature preferences?

::This is just so your signature page is transcluded to every comment you sign, not the actual coding, so if you ever change [[User:FanOfYoshi/sig]], the changes are reflected in all of your previous signed comments. This is also helpful if, for example, a larger version of the image is uploaded and it gets in the way of other talk page comments, since you can resize it on one page rather than having to go back and do it for every time the image was used. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 23:23, 1 September 2018 (EDT)

The [[:File:NSMB - Splunkin Model.png|Splunkin]] and [[:File:Boo.gif|Boo]] images in your signature need to be shrunk to 35px or less. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 05:27, 17 October 2018 (EDT)

== Project page ==

Your project page is meant for working on projects related to helping the wiki. What you have on your project page looks more like fan ideas that would be better suited to our [[forum:|forums]]. The information can be brought there, but it shouldn't be on the project page. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:18, 3 September 2018 (EDT)

== Re:Solo Toady picture ==

I wouldn't know. All I know is that due to the most recent emulator site (it was a self-proclaimed paradise) getting gutted, I can't get good non-YouTube screenshots until the next emulation site inevitably starts up. Hard to take screenshots from a game on a regular 3DS, that's for sure. [[User:Doc von Schmeltwick|Doc von Schmeltwick]] ([[User talk:Doc von Schmeltwick|talk]]) 15:06, 3 September 2018 (EDT)
:Was that last one intended to go to me? It didn't seem like it was in response to anything I said. I was more talking about myself above. Also, you seem to still be inputting your sig in raw code, just by the way. (assuming that's being copypasted?) Anyways, with the lack of shoes, that'll make converting from my regular Toady sprites to Solo Toady sprites a lot easier, but currently my non-schoolwork time is going to a ripping project for ''[[Donkey Kong Land]]'' on the [[Super Game Boy]].

== File redirects needing deleted ==
You don't need to tell them every time, there's a maintenance page that lists them that they check regularly. There's been a lot of file-moving recently, so it'd definitely be seen.

== Moving files ==

For future reference, after [[:File:YWW Yarn Ball Yoshi.jpg|moving a file]], keep in mind that the pages currently using the file (found at the bottom of the file page under "File usage") should be updated to use the new file name. After doing that, the old name must be marked for deletion with <code>{{tem|delete}}</code>. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 06:19, 4 September 2018 (EDT)

== Re: Yoshi's New Island quality ==

As far as I know, that is a hardware modification to capture footage directly from the 3DS. HANS is software-based, but doesn't capture video. It's use is to capture screenshots by PNG. I wouldn't recommend hardware modifications for screenshots, unless you are OK with dismantling your 3DS. There is an alternative screenshot software that is said to be better than HANS, but it installs itself onto the 3DS and may require system firmware modification. That is why I recommend HANS because it doesn't modify hardware or the 3DS firmware. To review:
*HANS (only needs an entry point, or exploit, to run and doesn't require any modifications to the system)
*NTR (installs itself on the 3DS and may require system firmware modification to run properly)
*Hardware mod (dismantle the 3DS to capture game footage)
Hope this helps. Visit [https://old.reddit.com/r/3dshacks r/3dshacks] for help how to homebrew your 3DS (for exploits). Also, to save consecutive edits, use the <tt>show preview</tt> button next to the <tt>save page</tt> button.--{{User:Wildgoosespeeder/sig}} 10:25, 4 September 2018 (EDT)

== Blarggwich ==

Oh, Blarggwich doesn't use "sprites" other than the eyes. The body is made from the same type of isosceles triangle object that most other squash-and-stretch enemies and objects in the game uses, as well as the polygons in ''Star Fox''. It's a Super FX thing, which is why only a few games had it. It also allows for sprite rotation and the tile pileup regarding the feet of many creatures in the game. And while ''Super Mario World'' and ''Kirby Super Star'' appeared to have sprite rotation in some boss fights, these are actually background layers, and thus a different story completely.

== Re:autoconfirmed ==

I say the Snapjaw / Snap Jaw article can probably be split without much problem since no one has come up with an objection in all that time, but there seems to be conflicting opinions about Huffin Puffin, so that one should definitely have a proposal. I recommend three options: 1) Split Huffin Puffin and Fluffin' Puffin, 2) Rename to Fluffin' Puffin, and 3) Keep as Huffin Puffin. That last one is because it's suggested that even though Fluffin' Puffin is the more recent name, it only applies to ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', so it Huffin Puffin would be interpreted as the more common name for the usual, non-wool version, making it an [[MarioWiki:Naming#Name_changes|exception]]. Or if you want to make the proposal only about the split, that's fine too, but there should be some discussion about the current name afterwards in the event it doesn't pass. You can follow the how-to [[MarioWiki:Proposals#How_to|here]], but if you're still not sure, I can do it for you if you'd like. (Also, I have fond memories of ''Yoshi's Island'' on SNES as well as the ''Super Show'' back when it was airing, so I like it.)

I think they should both be classified as derivatives of each other since there's no hard evidence for or against the other two choices. This may sound blunt, but I already detailed my argument in my vote. {{User:Toadette the Achiever/sig}} 11:08, 10 September 2018 (EDT)

== RE: Signature ==

Yep, your signature code comes out as <code><nowiki>{{User:FanOfYoshi/sig}}</nowiki></code> (a transclusion of your [[User:FanOfYoshi/sig|signature page]]), which is correct. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:39, 11 September 2018 (EDT)

== Friend boxes ==

Looks like you are using friendboxes, though it doesn't appear that you asked for them and are custom made. Usually you have ask first, and it's usually even stated on their userpages that you should, including mine. According to [[MarioWiki:Courtesy]]:
*"''Unless you have someone's permission, don't add their friend userbox to your userbox tower or create a fake box on their behalf.''"
If you want to ask someone if you can have the friend userbox, you can, but the ones you created should be removed.

That said, you can replace the one you made with mine if you want :) {{User:Alex95/sig}} 12:07, 11 September 2018 (EDT)

== Re:Needlenose ==

Yes, it's a little confusing because Needlenose and the original Spiked Fun Guy are both plainly referred to as Sanbo (Pokey) in Japanese versions and are considered the same thing despite the difference in appearance in behavior, and the "Pokey (''Yoshi's Island'' series)" also has a different name altogether, Heading Sanbo/Pokey. Not to mention that standard Pokeys eventually appeared in the ''Yoshi'' franchise in ''Yoshi's New Island'' alongside Needlenoses (still Sanbo in Japanese), which were soon replaced by a different type of enemy called Pokey Poms in ''Yoshi's Woolly World''. I think the simplest thing to do is to consider them all separate entities, as they are cactus-like but have notable differences (although Cactus Jack is currently considered a derivative of Needlenose). Also, looks good, I like the idea of each word directing to something else. Keeps it condensed. [[User:LinkTheLefty|LinkTheLefty]] ([[User talk:LinkTheLefty|talk]]) 13:20, 11 September 2018 (EDT)

Hmm, honestly, that sprite needs to be re-ripped entirely, imo.

== Merging and Moving ==

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but articles don't have to be moved immediately.

==Re:Super Mario-Kun==
Let me see if I still have the scans from the Yoshi's Island volume. They do follow pretty closely to the games so it would be strange to see some major bosses omitted. I don't know if the enemies would still appear though. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 14:13, 22 September 2018 (EDT)
:I've got bad news. Turns out I don't have volume 15 that continued the Yoshi's Island arc, hence why there's no coverage on the potted ghosts. Really sorry about that. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 21:32, 26 September 2018 (EDT)

== RE: Relay Heiho ==

Yes, the manual treats them as the same enemy. A rough translation: ''"If you spit them out after eating them, they roll and can defeat an enemy in one piece. There are also those that line up in the ceiling and pass a bomb in a similar manner to a bucket relay and drop it."'' {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 03:20, 25 September 2018 (EDT)

== New article ==

When starting a new article, even after a split, remember to add the appropriate navigation templates and categories like {{tem|YWW}} and <code><nowiki>[[Category:Yoshi's Woolly World]]</nowiki></code> at the bottom of the page. You also forgot to ''italicise'' game titles as I've already explained above. Please remember these as they are important writing guidelines (you can find more info on the [[MarioWiki:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]], which I recommend using as reference for future articles). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 03:28, 28 September 2018 (EDT)

Sure, go ahead! :) If you wish, you can start making new pages from [[6-1]] beyond while I continue to add information to previous pages to make them more explicit. (Seeing, for example, [[World 1-1]] and [[Stage 1-1]] listed separately would seem confusing to some people, so it's important to mention the games they appear in and give readers more direction.)

== New users ==

Regarding [[User_talk:Turboo#Luigi4747|this message on Turboo's talk page]], you've done this a few times. Staff check the IP of every new user that signs up already, so there's no need to report them unless they are doing something like vandalizing. Even then, that's what the [[MarioWiki:Admin_noticeboard|admin noticeboard]] is for, unless you need to get someone's immediate attention. 

I know you've been shooting for a Patroller rank, but you're going about this all wrong. Just keep editing, undoing vandalism and reporting them when it happens, and the staff members will come to you when they think you're ready. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:15, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

{{delete-reason|[[Switch Block (Mario & Wario)]]}}
Making a conjectural article and marking it as a stub... If it's to have a conjectural name, it should have as much information on it as possible.

== Re:Yoshi's Island DS Prima Guide ==

Neither guide has an enemy glossary, so the best I can do is examine the levels in which the enemies appear. The article for [[Sanbo Flower]] doesn't mention where it appears, so I can't do much for that.

As for [[Porutāobake]]:
*Nintendo Power: "If you run low on ammo, his annoying friends will come to your rescue by tossing chairs and flower pots your way."
*Prima: No mention at all.

Nothing useful there. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 16:35, 24 October 2018 (EDT)

== Admins and vandals ==

As has been told to you before, you do not need to go to admin talk pages whenever there is a vandal. The Admin noticeboard will do fine.

::Either/or, really. User's will get a notification that their talk page was changed, regardless of the reason.

== RE: Recent Changes ==

No - Marcycin

== Raphael ==

I just want to point out, that with the file name giving it the same name, and (unlike [[Bat (Super Mario Galaxy)|Bat]], [[Morty Mole]], and [[Magmaargh]]), there not being ''any'' official sources directly contradicting this, that means that this is the only official word we ''have'', and contradicting our only lead is pretty much fanon. As such, we really should merge them, unless you want a significant drop in coverage and sourcing quality. While I don't like filenames being an official name source, I feel an exception is required when it's the ''only'' name that's been given to it whatsoever.

== Re:Baby Cheep Japanese names + other ==

It looks like it's unnamed since ''Encyclopedia Super Mario Bros.'' only mentions that there is an underwater version of Boss Bass and doesn't describe it in further detail or give it a separate name like Nintendo Power did to Big Bertha. Also in regards to your other question about ''Yoshi's Island DS'' from a while back, I think Dangling Ghost is <tt>bura_obake</tt> and Caged Ghost is <tt>dokanobake_front</tt> and <tt>dokanobake_side</tt>.

== Spark and Piro Dangle ==

Since when does a SMW2 appearance care about prior rules? Lakitus had a crosshair and Spiny Eggs exploded!

== Re:Needlenoses ==

I think I may have mentioned it elsewhere, but basically, all the guides refer to Needlenose as Sanbo. Spiked Fun Guy also goes under that name and is suggested to be the same thing in the description from the ''Super Mario Advance 3'' guide, which would technically merely make Spiked Fun Guy the enemy graphic and Needlenose the projectile graphic. The ''Yoshi's New Island'' guide doesn't have its own listing for Needlenose and gives one to the traditional Pokey instead, but other parts of the guide call Needlenose "Sanbo" when describing the projectile. The confusion with all these different forms of Sanbo in the ''Yoshi's Island'' games is probably what led to their replacement in ''Yoshi's Woolly World'', Pokey Pom.

== Talk tabbing ==

Hi, oftentimes when I see you in talk pages, your tabbing while you respond tends to take a step backwards, creating a zig-zagging effect. This is not the proper way to do it; responses to a specific thing should almost always go one extra step to the right, and should only go to the left of they've gone extremely far to the right already, or is a direct, specific response to a prior point of which the interrim points do not relate.

== Soliciting ==

I've noticed you done this a couple of times both on the wiki and on Discord, but asking users if they're going to vote on proposals or if they will support one you are going to make is against [[MarioWiki:Courtesy|courtesy]]:
<blockquote>
*'''solicit votes from other users.'''

Do not ask other users to vote for anything, period. While this is mainly directed at proposals, it applies to FAs, elections and any other voting that takes place on the Super Mario Wiki. Even if you don't explicitly ask your friends to support your cause (or to join you in opposing something), simply contacting them makes it look like you're fishing for votes in your favor. The only time you can draw someone's attention to a vote is when a proposal concerns a subject that is important to them. Far from an act of discourtesy, giving them a heads-up about some possible changes being made to that subject would be a very considerate thing to do. Furthermore, if the validity or rationale behind someone's vote is being questioned, you can contact the voter and ask them to check back in on the matter, which may result in them changing their vote.
</blockquote>
Just something to keep in mind. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 11:44, 5 December 2018 (EST)

== Proposals ==

If you're making the changes to a TPP, please remember to change [[MarioWiki:Proposals/Talk_Page_Archive]] accordingly as well. The archive entry also still linked to the old talk page name (Talk:Rudy the Clown), which you marked for deletion. Keep in mind placing {{tem|delete}} at the top breaks the redirect, so it's better to place it underneath in case it's searched or other pages still link to it (though they should be fixed anyway). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:41, 8 December 2018 (EST)

Also, remember to check for double redirects (redirects to the old name) after moving a page and make sure they redirect to the new name. You do this by going to [[Special:WhatLinksHere]] (the "What links here" link under "tools" on the left navigation pane) with the old name in the text field and clicking "Hide links". {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:49, 8 December 2018 (EST)

==Re: I.P.==
You were undoing vandalism, so I think it's OK, thank you for reporting them. It appears they've done this before from other IP addresses, so you were doing the right thing by reverting their edits.
