| Do not create articles with just one sentence of information. Rather than just adding what it is basically, you should at least add what it does, how it's significant to the plot etc. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 01:17, August 9, 2024 (EDT)

| Don't be vague about the details like saying the item "has effects" on a character? What effects? (and for Excitement Battery, how is it relevant to the story if it's the source of the Tokyo 64's power?) You should be at least familiar with the game to write information about it; if you're not, or you haven't played the game, leave it for someone else to write the articles, but don't create pages just for the sake of filling in red links. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 07:27, August 9, 2024 (EDT)

| Don't upsize sprites needlessly, it tends to make them look bad. If you absolutely ''must'' upsize a sprite, then multiply its size by a whole number so it doesn't look blurry. For instance, [[:File:WMoDRedChest.png]] is 30px wide, so only increase it by multiples of 30, like 60px or 90px, not 50px. Also, preview your edits and don't save them in an unfinished state [https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=The_Final_Face-Off!&diff=prev&oldid=3630050 like this.] {{User:7feetunder/sig}} 19:55, April 25, 2022 (EDT)

| Another thing, in headers, words that aren't proper nouns or the first word of the header should have their initial lowercase, so "NTSC-U Description" should be "NTSC-U description". {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 21:46, April 25, 2022 (EDT)

| ==Prezzy Edits==

| I like the edits that you made on the [[Prezzy]] page, since I feel like having the rating being a little pixel sprite gallery would be better than having it as just plain text. It looks less cluttered that way, and it matches what it looks like in-game.

| == Warioware smooth moves pre-intro cutsenses ==
| |
|
| |
| Hello, Moses Sin. I have just reuploaded the files you've uploaded for the WWSM pre-intros. With the high-quality thp/emulator versions. Why? Because youtube screenshots come out as blurry, and thus you shouldn't rely on yt videos for cutscene screenshots. Youtube screenshots are best when used on youtube-exclusive videos, like the WarioWare Gold character trailers. (I haven't reuploaded one for Jimmy P yet) {{User:PnnyCrygr/sig}} 09:25, October 2, 2023 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| *OK. {{User|Moses Sin|Moses Sin}} 9:26, October 2, 2023 (EDT)

While I'm not entirely sure how categories for remakes have to work, I don't think images from a one version of the game should be placed in the categories of both versions of the game, especially if both versions of the game have distinct graphical capabilities. I believe more Wii U images should not be added to this category until something is figured out regarding their placement.
