== Minor edits / categories ==

{{preview-reminder}}
Use the preview button to avoid [https://www.mariowiki.com/Red_Space?action=history excessive edits like these]. When you do make a small edit like fixing a typo or error, it should be marked as minor (tick the "This is a minor edit" checkbox above the save button).

Also, please make sure category pages ''also'' have categories ([[Special:Diff/4266485|like this]]). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 02:41, June 20, 2024 (EDT)

And when adding game-specific categories (e.g. "Super Mario Party Jamboree characters"/"items"/etc.) to articles, make sure they're added in alphabetical order. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 06:35, June 20, 2024 (EDT)

Since the name is "Super Mario Party" plus an extra word, alphabetically it should go ''after'' "Super Mario Party", not before. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 06:51, June 20, 2024 (EDT)

For navigation templates (the ones you're adding like {{tem|SMP}}), they should be ordered chronologically, by when the games were first released. You can use [[List of games by date]] for reference. Sorry for the repeated messages, I'm just making sure you get this right. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 23:27, June 21, 2024 (EDT)

== Grammar check ==

I've noticed you've been making edits that are similar to those made by grammar checkers (like changing "in order to" to just "to"). Please don't run grammar checkers over articles without checking the results if you're using one, as they're not 100% reliable and can pick up false positives (for instance, assuming "Yux" is only singular and changing "Yux produce" to "produce'''s'''" when the name is the same in singular and plural). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 11:45, July 30, 2024 (EDT)

== Citations ==
I'm trying to make citations but it just won't work, I'm new to this stuff so I'm going to not know how to do this. {{Unsigned|Sentient freedom}} 

:[[MarioWiki:Citations]] explains how to do it. So for a YouTube video, for example:
<pre>
<ref>Nintendo UK (August 30, 2024). [https://youtu.be/OmMWmHzFf4w Pauline joins the party! – Super Mario Party Jamboree (Nintendo Switch)]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved August 30, 2024.</ref>
</pre>

:or alternatively with {{tem|cite}}:

<pre>
<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo UK|date=August 30, 2024|url=https://youtu.be/OmMWmHzFf4w|title=Pauline joins the party! – Super Mario Party Jamboree (Nintendo Switch)|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=August 30, 2024}}</ref>
</pre>

==Italics==
{{italics-reminder}} {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 09:46, August 30, 2024 (EDT)

You're doing this when copying the ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' name to infoboxes and references lists, but please remember to do this yourself when you type out the name in the article itself. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 23:42, August 30, 2024 (EDT)

Ok but what do you mean by that? [[User:Sentient freedom|Sentient freedom]] ([[User talk:Sentient freedom|talk]]) 09:05, September 6, 2024 (EDT) 

:When you type out a game title, make sure it's formatted properly in italics like the reminder here explains (''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]'' instead of [[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]). {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 04:58, August 31, 2024 (EDT)

Also, how do I put in images, I have the image for the ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' version for Defuse or Lose but I don't know how to put it in on this wiki that is. [[User:Sentient freedom|Sentient freedom]] ([[User talk:Sentient freedom|talk]]) 09:06, September 6, 2024 (EDT)

:Go to [[Special:Upload]] (it's the "Upload file" link under "tools" on the left navigation pane) and follow the steps there. Also, remember to sign talk page comments with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>, even on your own talk page. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:46, September 6, 2024 (EDT)

== Userbox ==

You're free to copy the format of my userpage but please do not use my or someone else's friend userbox without permission or [[MarioWiki:Courtesy#Friends|falsely claim to be my/their friend]]. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 08:30, September 6, 2024 (EDT)

how do you manage to do all these Names in other languages templates? do you use Google Translate or something? [[User:Sentient freedom|Sentient freedom]] ([[User talk:Sentient freedom|talk]]) 16:26, September 9, 2024 (EDT)

:They're names taken from official foreign-language versions of games and other media. They shouldn't be unofficial or fan translations, including Google Translate. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:29, September 10, 2024 (EDT)

== Grammar ==

Make sure you watch your grammar when writing. You're hardly using punctuation where they should be used (not enough commas, and hardly any periods at all) and creating {{wp|run-on sentence}}s (basically writing long sentences that should be split into multiple, separate sentences). Consider looking into that part of grammar or going over some of your past edits (and [[Shop Hop Box|article]]) to see how your writing was fixed. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 10:27, September 10, 2024 (EDT)

Ok so forget that last post I made I got it figured out. So can you please give me steps on how to upload files without black backgrounds? [[User:Sentient freedom|Sentient freedom]] ([[User talk:Sentient freedom|talk]]) 04:35, September 13, 2024 (EDT)

-:If the image has a transparent background, sometimes image-editing programs like Photoshop automatically add a black background to it when you paste it into one (I copied/pasted the artwork to Paint.NET with no problems). If you instead "Copy image address", then in Photoshop go to "File", "Paste Embedded" and paste the URL, it shouldn't add the black background. {{User:Mario jc/sig}} 06:55, September 24, 2024 (EDT)
-== Impostor Bowser ==
-Just an FYI, since [https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/super-mario-party-jamboree-switch/ the English Super Mario Party Jamboree page] uses "Impostor Bowser" rather than "Imposter Bowser", that is what this wiki is using at the moment.
