Hello. I saw you stated to be specialized in merges and such on your userpage. If so, could you see {{fake link|Talk:Collect the Trophies!}} and share your thoughts? - {{User:Edofenrir/sig}} 19:49, 12 December 2009 (EST)

Leave on my talk page every article I need to go to and what to do and I will do it [[User:Yoshionfire]]

If I haven't voted in any talk page proposals, I'm probably just neutral. But I assure you that I read all the talk pages.--{{User|Knife}} 22:54, 18 December 2009 (EST)
==Implied Charcters==
I really hate to do this, but creating a category for these characters is pointless. Categories are meant to ease organization, but all the Implied Characters' information is already located on a single page - you can't get any easier than that. (Any implied characters that aren't on this page should be moved to the page.) To save on space and cut back on redundancy, I'm afraid I'm going to have to remove all the categories you have painstakingly added to the redirect pages. I'm very sorry. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 17:50, 19 December 2009 (EST)
:Redirect pages do not need to be categorized (and in most cases, they ''shouldn't'' be categorized because that results in a single page - the one being redirected to - being present in a category twice). The organization of this wiki is not necessarily the same as other wikis - one size does not fit all, and so far, our categorization works fine... except for the fact that we have too many for our own good. Coincidentally, the Admins are currently discussing ways of streamlining categories as well as navigation templates; I can bring this up with them as part of the discussion, but I can almost guarantee that they will agree with me on this issue, and in the meantime, I'd hate to see you keep adding categories in vain. I can empathize with you about losing your work - I've seen quite a few of my Template projects deleted in the past couple months - and if I could, I would leave your edits. As for the actual undoing process, I really don't mind - this kind of gnomework is my favorite type of maintenance, and it only takes a single click of the mouse per page with my Administrative Rollback ability. So, will you take my word on this, or do you still want me to ask for a second opinion before doing anything more? - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 18:12, 19 December 2009 (EST)
::I was thinking of a situation in which something like [[King Bowser Koopa]] (a redirect) was categorized as, for example, Royalty, and then so was the regular [[Bowser]] page - if I'm not mistaken, both "King Bowser Koopa" and "Bowser" would then show up in the category listings. Can you show me where Time Q said that; as far as I know, we don't have any sort of official policy regarding redirect categorization, and I will certainly ask more Sysops' for their input before changing that. Regardless, I do feel that this particular case of categorization has no merit because there already is a list that shows the individual subjects in the page - the Table of Contents. I actually compared the ToC and your category's list when I noticed what you were doing, and when I saw that they were identical, that's when I decided to stop you. (Full disclosure: there ''were'' some minor differences - the ToC had more entries, except it lacked [[Queen Croacus II]], whom I'm not sure how to deal with anyway: there are pictures of Croacus [[King Croacus I|I]] through [[King Croacus III|III]] in ''Super Paper Mario'', but I'm not sure if that's enough grounds to place them a step above "Implied"; they should probably be merged in ''some'' way, however.) - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 20:05, 19 December 2009 (EST)
:::Yeah, but if we start categorizing some redirects, people might think all redirects should be categorized and things will snowball from there. I see what you're trying to do by expanding on the Implied categories, but there really is no point seeing as there already are lists of implied X on the "List of Implied X" pages. Rather than create a sub-category for the redirects of each type of implied thing, just send people directly to the actual list pages, because that's where they'll have to go anyway to read about the subjects they would find in the categorical list. Cobold's proposal will take care of getting other Admins' opinions; however it also means I can't undo your edits for a week even if you agree to it now... - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 21:37, 19 December 2009 (EST)
== Quick Question, if I may... ==
I rewrote pretty much all of the storyline of Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story!!! I want to know if you would read it and tell me if I need to change something, so in case of the future, I do this again (and you get the point...). Hope you like the rewritten part, and bye!!! {{User:Baby Mario Bloops/sig}}
== Unstubify ==
Since you know a lot about merging, can you look over [[PipeProject:Unstubify#Merging]]? If you want to change/add some things, go ahead.--{{User|Knife}} 02:03, 20 December 2009 (EST)
Alright, cool.--{{User|Knife}} 14:54, 20 December 2009 (EST)
== Two Questions ==
First, why did you create the "List of Implied..." categories? They're useless. Second, why did you only merge Volcano Peril with Mario Party 7 when I created two other articles on a mode of a mode? Did you really not notice the blue text? {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
:{{fake link|Pearl Hunt}}? {{fake link|Waterfall Battle}}? {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
== Dried Bubble problem... ==
Do you think you can help me and some other users with this problem [[Talk:Dried Blooper|here]]? This kind-of has to do with your proposal of merging things. Problem is, we want to merge Dried Blooper and Bubble Blooper together, since they are literally the same enemy and have the same stat's and in the same area. Now here's the problem, we don't have a name if we merge them, and we can't have a conjectural title. Do you think you could help out, since I think you could really do something about it? {{User:Baby Mario Bloops/sig}}
::Do you think you can start a merging vote thing on the talk page, just to see how it works? That would be really helpful. And, if it merges with Bubble Blooper, we can decide the name with the best one we can have, since many other articles have unoffical names (ex. - Water Blooper, Pump Works Blooper, Dried/Bubble Blooper, etc.). So, can you please do that on the Dried Blooper talk page? {{User:Baby Mario Bloops/sig}}
==Hey there==
It's night time right now. (yawn) And I see that your up in the wiki this very night, like the other nights. How are you doing right now? For me, continuing my task to clean up userpages or even delete them as a result of unused accounts (more than a year), or due to the fact that their userpages didn't follow what the rules said. As I said, how are you doing? :p {{User:RAP/sig}} 03:35, 22 December 2009 (EST) [[Special:Contributions/RAP|*yawn...*]]
(thud!) You didn't add the signature! XD ...and the date. x3 Vote for 24 hours? In another site? Does it have to do with politics, and what kind of friend? X3 After seeing your page -- it's kinda wonderful to have some kind of record. Have you checked some of my articles such as [[Box Mountain Mayhem]], [[Awful Tower]], and [[Slap Down]]? Most of my articles consist of mini-games, but I actually like those things from the Mario Party series. Oh, and if your asking me to expand the other mini-game articles -- it's on my to-do list. I'll be covering mini-games from the first through the third, Advance, and the DS version. Questioning your skills in a curious notion, are you actually a writer in Wikipedia? {{User:RAP/sig}} 04:11, 22 December 2009 (EST)
Merry Christmas Redstar! :3 How are you doing tonight? And how is life? For me, I'm playing RnD and Spyro: Year of the Dragon during the last few hours -- but I'm continuing to focus some of the userspace. Must. Work. More faster and smarter! {{User:RAP/sig}} 04:17, 25 December 2009 (EST) [[Special:Contributions/RAP|20-30% complete, excluding usertalk pgs.]]
Actually I recently found out that the wiki runs faster during night time than day time. That's when not too many people are looking at the wiki, or people using the wiki's images. And ah, Wikipedia. Spyro: Year of the Dragon may have the general info, but it doesn't seem to be sharing more of it's fair share of secrets than reading interviews and previews about the game. (sigh) I actually like the Spyro fan sites better, more info for the fans. I think Wikipedia is more like, a general book than something that attempts to dig in the extra tasty goodies of a good subject. But even still, people use Wikipedia simply as a quick-access of organized general knowledge. :C Heh, the are such things as a good christmas, and a bad Christmas -- just avoid the bad side and you'll be fine. {{User:RAP/sig}} 04:44, 25 December 2009 (EST) [[Special:Contributions/RAP|Going to sleep already?]]
==About a merge==
A merge that I requested between {{fake link|Cobalt Shard}} and [[Cobalt Star]] is about as a dead as a corpe. Since you're the user that usually supports/opposed merges, can you check it out and give some insight? Not sure you own [[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]], but hopefully you'll be able to give some sort of constructive critisism. {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
Well, it passed. Since I'm not good at merging, would you like to merge them? {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
Thanks. {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
Well, the passed talk proposals kept piling up, so I had to do something. Also, since I merged Elevator Key, you can merge Cobalt Shard. {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
I didn't realize it until now. My bad. {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
==About the merges...==
So... I don't think the ones that have been going on forever should get a whole extra two weeks. Far too long. I thought maybe one week after the passed proposal? So Jan. 1? I dunno, I just thought it would please both sides. {{User:Bloc Partier/sig}} 12:45, 26 December 2009 (EST)
When will i be able to create my user page? I'm new and its not letting me. [[User:Big Bully|Big Bully]] 00:35, 1 January 2010 (EST)
Alright. Sorry if I disturbed you. [[User:Big Bully|Big Bully]] 00:41, 1 January 2010 (EST)
==Re: Merge==
You're welcome. I usually dislike bumping into other people's projects like that. This time I did it because someone (I think it was Reversinator) asked for a volunteer for merging the articles in an edit summary. - {{User:Edofenrir/sig}} 17:29, 14 January 2010 (EST)
:Hey, this topic works perfectly! Anyhow, I just thought you may want to know that your Metal Merge/Split proposals passed and you should take action ASAP by merging/splitting the articles. {{User|Marioguy1}}
== Yellow and Blue Toad Proposals ==
I hope you don't mind, but I've reorganized those old Proposals you made concerning [[Yellow Toad]] and [[Blue Toad]]. Since they concern the exact same matter, I've made it so the vote is only being held on [[Talk:Yellow Toad#Split and Merge Article|the Yellow Toad talk page]] (it had the most votes and discussion at the time); as it now concerns both articles, I added a note to the proposal exposition (in italics) briefly summarizing the changes in relation to the Blue Toad. I left the proposal exposition on the Blue Toad talk page, but made a boldface announcement telling people to vote on Yellow Toad's talk page. All this was done because someone re-proposed the split, but since your idea was more developed and already underway, I decided to delete the new proposals and simply revamp your pre-TPP era suggestions: since they didn't have deadline of their own, rather than make the updated Toad proposal "overtime", I simply gave it the deadline that the new proposal would have had: February 13, 2010. Feel free to rewrite my announcements and exposition (including the description on [[MarioWiki:Proposals]], and if you can think of a better way to organize the two-in-one proposal situation, by all means, do so; I just recommend leaving the vote itself on the one page - it gets too confusing otherwise. - {{User:Walkazo/sig}} 16:01, 31 January 2010 (EST)
== Triple Red Shells ==
While [[Triple Red Shells]] redirects to the [[Red Shell]] article, I decided to change that and "recreate" the Triple Red Shell article to fully discuss the item within the ''Mario Kart'' series.  The item is ''not'' the same as a regular Red Shell, and I've contemplated creating a Red Shell (Mario Kart item) article to discuss that item as well.  However, my editing of the Triple Red Shells article was reverted in a matter of six minutes by [[User:Reversinator]] back to its original redirect to the Red Shell article.  My edits that were reverted can be seen here: [http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Triple_Red_Shells&oldid=718814], and that's what I intended the article to be (with some minor touch ups in the future).  Now, I'm new to this Wiki (but not new to the Wiki process), and my understanding is that this is supposed to be a comprehensive project about everything Mario.  If the 186 different recipe mixes in the ''Paper Mario'' series are given their own full articles, why can't Triple Red Shells? 
I'm only asking you on this matter since I saw you took part in the original discussion that led to the Triple Red Shells article being redirected back to the Red Shell article.  I have some great ideas for improving articles relating to ''Mario Kart'', so any explanation and suggestions you could offer, specifically relating to the article redirect at hand, would be great.  Thank you. --[[User:Notorious4life|notorious4life]] 17:34, 16 February 2010 (EST)

==Talk Page Proposal on Baby Yoshi==
I modified your pre-TPP proposal so it became updated. I put the deadline, March 15 2010, in because today is March 1. I also put the TTP template in. {{User|KS3}}
==Yellow Toad==
When are you going to merge the respective info into Toad (species) and Toad Bridage?? {{unsigned|KS3}}
== Unnecessary alert templates ==
I meant 'unnecessary' as in the one you put up: images should be uploaded. It should be '''additional images''' should be uploaded. The one you put up means there aren't any images and they should be uploaded. See the difference? {{user|Mario jc}}
==[[Talk:Blue Toad#Split and Merge Article|Blue Toad dispute]]==
There is this dispute between a few people on why did we split Blue and Yellow toad into there respective articles. {{User:KS3/sig}}
==Hello==
Hi, are you the same Redstar from Glitch City Laboratories forums (and wiki)? This is Torchickens. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 08:58, 5 May 2010 (EDT)

==Super Mario film==
So do you have it or did you just edit the article to the best of your knowledge because I have 2 copies of the film. Start uploading photos tonight. Even though it grossed less than half of what was spent on it, it wasn't that bad. Also hi. {{User:Garlic Stapler/sig}}
:Yea, movie had some humor to it. Also funny how Luigi meets Daisy first in the film as well. Peach is repalced with someone else and koopa still walks with his arms folded in, lol. I think I got it for about 5 dollars anyway. Might want to check wal-mart sometime. Mine still has a few spare copies, heh. {{User:Garlic Stapler/sig}}
::Probably won't ever be a new relase of it unless it was CGI then it could be closer to the game line, espicially if they brought in the voice actors from the games. Might start doing photos later today. {{User:Garlic Stapler/sig}}
:::It actually doesn't look that bad on DVD right now. =] {{User:Garlic Stapler/sig}}
== Bad-faith reversions ==
[http://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Metal_Mario_(form)&curid=88880&diff=1207871&oldid=1206800 Reversions without an edit summary] are not called for. Please write an edit summary for why the edit should be reverted, and discuss controversial reversions on the talk page. Thank you. --{{User:B.wilson/sig}} 06:09, 12 January 2012 (EST)
== Good work! ==
I've read your userpage. You sound like a really nice person! Keep up the great work!

==Super Mario Bros. 2==
I dunno if you'll see this message before the community comes to a concensus, but on the off-chance you do: it is my understanding you're involved in that SMB sequel webcomic in some capacity; I've made [http://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=34726.0 a thread] about what to do with it on the wiki. --[[User:Glowsquid|Glowsquid]] ([[User talk:Glowsquid|talk]]) 21:07, 1 May 2015 (EDT)
