::You helping? Sorry, the wiki doesn't anyone else edit a userpage if it is not theirs. <s>It would only say "View Source" if I try to edit say your main userpage.</s> Unless you're an admin, and of then course. I edited peoples' userpages all the time behind the scenes when I was an admin (old-school term is '''sysop''' because it sounds awesome in my opinion); most of the time cleaning up their interface and replacing the old images with the new images. Tis a thankless job. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 05:39, 12 May 2013 (EDT)
:Yeah I asked because I'm a sysop, and I'm able to edit the page.
:{{User:YoshiKong/sig}} 05:41, 12 May 2013 (EDT)
:: Wait, you're a sysop? And you just got these this month? Congrats dude! I have no idea how you got these (since I just came back and considering working on NIWA, my Nintendo Wiki and MarioWiki at the same time) but you definitely did something that made the higher-ups notice your work in the wiki. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 05:45, 12 May 2013 (EDT)
:Thanks for the kind words! But did you not see my name in green on recent changes, which identifies sysops?
:{{User:YoshiKong/sig}} 05:48, 12 May 2013 (EDT)
::I think that might be my sleepiness causing me to forget you're a recent sysop. I'm going to actually sleep before I physically and mentally harm myself in the long run. We'll definitely talk more later; definitely on resources in general. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 05:58, 12 May 2013 (EDT) [[Special:Contributions/RAP|I may be typing properly in spite of the need for the snoozes, but it's taking a beating toll if this keeps up.]]


=== PNG Monster ===
=== PNG Monster ===
For those who are unaware, I highly recommend that you use [[User:RAP/PNG|PNG Monster]] for all the data compression for PNGs. The program compresses the image without losing quality. This is because PNG files are designed to be lossless, meaning it retains the same look, but takes less bytes when compressed further. Be sure to read instructions and notes on how to operate it. Try to practice it a bit; I know I had get into this mindset one way or another. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 05:24, 12 May 2013 (EDT)

=== MarioWiki boards ===
I've now set up another hub for discussion and collaboration within the MarioWiki forums: http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=25166.0<br>
This one has all of the info on the existence of these files; a nice backstory per say. If you want to collab there instead of here, go ahead! --{{User:RAP/sig}} 22:45, 12 May 2013 (EDT)
===Images that aren't in mainspace===
http://www.mariowiki.com/File:Twisted_Garlic.jpg shouldn't count since it's not mainspace-linked, in my opinion. I already replaced it with a higher-quality image a while ago, as well. Is it alright if this section is used to point out cases like this? - [[User:Turboo|Turboo]] ([[User talk:Turboo|talk]]) 19:25, 13 May 2013 (EDT)
:Yes, definitely. I'm human after all, and it's possible that I missed some of these along the way. I even tried clearing those links off that aren't in the mainspace when this project is brought up again. They will be removed instead of crossed out, but it only applies if the image was not intended to be replaced for mainspace. Since that's not the case for the fact that you saw the file and uploaded a higher-quality version of the image under PNG, I will put a note next to the file link instead and have it crossed out instead of being removed. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 13:03, 15 May 2013 (EDT)
===File list===
[[:File:Blooper_Surfing_Safari.PNG]] isn't beta, the obstacles are in the same postion as in the game. I also uploaded, higher version of [[:File:PeachFlyinginPlane.PNG]], [[:File:Wiggler Ahoy! Full Steam Ahead!.PNG]].
{{User:L151/sig}}
:Done. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 13:03, 15 May 2013 (EDT) [[Special:Contributions/RAP|I'll recheck the lists and the new file uploads again to see if I'm missing more to be crossed out. It'll be later due to college finals coming up.]]
===Wiki collaboration goal established===
I recommend reading more of the details in [http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=25166.msg1137409#msg1137409 this post]. Basically, I made a goal for this collaboration. The minimum we should reach is 90% (bronze). The other two are: 95% (silver), and 100% (gold). We're currently at 0.9 percent. I set up the progress status over here as well.
Also, please be aware that I'm still focusing on college, and especially with finals coming up. Progress may be delayed, so keep that in mind. Have a good one. Feel free to ask any questions or discuss. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 04:04, 24 May 2013 (EDT)
===ATTENTION: {{user|YoshiKong}} &ndash; adding entries===
I checked your edits [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=User%3ARAP%2Ftest3&diff=1475873&oldid=1475176 by comparing my last edit in that page with your edits in this link]. I appreciate that you're helping by adding more entries that need to be tackled, but my wiki collaboration wasn't intended to have users add additional entries at all. The goal of the wiki collaboration is to tackle the entries from the list that was complied back in 2010 with better quality files, and only that.
Being aware that it has been two years since I scanned the whole database, I'm planning for another wiki collaboration when a big chunk of this wiki collaboration is done; around 70-90%. However, the next file wiki collaboration will have more stricter rules and standards.
A quick peek for those strict rules and standards from the top of my head:
* compression
* articles needing image files with [[Template:Image]]
* articles needing additional image files needed with [[Template:more images]]
* converting into SVG files
There might be more rules and standards to be added.
Optionally, I could perform another manual quality scan of the whole file database of the whole wiki right now in the rules and standards of 2010, but it's more tedious if I keep finding the same entries as the ones I found back in that same year than the new entries. Thanks for adding new entries, but I don't really think it was necessary for this wiki collaboration for the reasons I said above. Thanks. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 03:16, 25 May 2013 (EDT)
:Oh sorry, I wasn't aware that we couldn't add more entries. Shall it be removed?
:{{User:YoshiKong/sig}} 04:06, 25 May 2013 (EDT)
::Yeah, we could make the new list right now, but it's too early, and we are still working on this. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 04:21, 25 May 2013 (EDT)
Of course, let's focus on doing all we can for this list first.
{{User:YoshiKong/sig}} 04:24, 25 May 2013 (EDT)
===Moved userspace pages to userspace talk pages===
I moved those pages in response to [http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=25166.msg1188524#msg1188524 a forum post by User:Megadardery]. This is so that anyone can edit the list for completion instead of me and {{user|YoshiKong}}; this change will be reflected on both the wiki and forum hub. This mentality will also apply to future projects whenever possible. Thanks. --{{User:RAP/sig}} 19:49, 24 July 2013 (EDT)
